Hi, my 89 vette misfires when it reaches above 160'f +, it does it randomnly but it always does it, if i turn off the engine and restart it it works fine then after a few seconds it starts misfiring again. When it misfires the fuel pressure drops and if i give it a bit of throttle it jumps between 10-50 psi erratically, i was going to change the fuel pump but when its cold it works just fine, 40psi at idle and 47psi with load.
Anyone have any tips what should i check? |

I'd say you're on the right track. Fuel pumps are known to fail and show the symptoms when they get warm. The erratic fuel pressure is a sign of that. I'd replace the pump and report back.
