i have a mechanical pressure gauge that has been rock solid forever at 75psi on both old and new engine. the plane was built with both gauges. sounds like the eis is reading low so a tweek will help. looks like a call to the man.

Tee in a calibrated pressure gauge, anything else does not help. I have seen new uncalibrated, un certified gauges 30psi off. Go to your local A&P, he should have a calibrated gauge to use
