Help needed with 16V CIS-E!!

[sukchew at suddenlink.net (Chuck Blue)]

    Check your system pressue it should be about 75psi.I think 56psi is way 
low.Do the injectors spray continously or just a momentary burst.
With the plunger at the closed position there should be no flow.So it must 
be pressure maybe back thru the warm up regulator.
  Did the p o screw up the system plumbing?
