Drat! I hit send again before I was done. Fat fingers. Small iPhone. 

Picking up from where I left off...  

My car is fresh out of the barn without a rebuild. I run 60# cold and 25-30# hot. I took it to my mechanic and he wrapped on the pressure gauge and pronounced it sluggish. It would go down to 25# at a very low idle and continue to read low because it was stuck.

You might want to raise the rpms a bit after a low idle, give it a wrap and see if it's sluggish.
