OK which is the correct way to set Fuel Pressure on an EFI engine. I was always told to disconnect the Vacuum line and set the regulator to 40 PSI then put the vacuum line back on and it should drop to about 32 PSI.

I have also been told to set the fuel pressure with the key on engine off and set the pressure to 35psi-45psi.

Which is the correct way and what should the pressure be running at idle.

I've done it both methods and either way has worked for me. Disconnect vac. line and set it to 38-40lbs and then it should register around 32-35 with vac. line installed.
