Not unless you have a hole in your line. The vacuum is pulling on both lines equally.
And regardless of what happens in the line, it cannot affect the IP, as it's on the other side of the fuel solenoid.

That makes sense.
Well, as you saw this weekend, it started perfectly fine.

I didn't see that, but I'm glad it has gotten better. Cheers!
You didn't see the video I sent to your phone?
haha, well I figured you'd at least have it by now.

My 76 looks like that all the time...
A 6.2 that does 85 mph ?...
..must have been going down hill--a STEEP hill!......
...
I've had my pickup up to 80 once...not something I'd want to try again...tires felt square after 70..sounded like it was still in second gear too.

Diesel fuel gauge doesn't necessarily mean diesel engine....
Not a good idea to leave the diesel dash in place after a gas engine swap..
I know someone who put a 350 in place of a 6.2 in a pickup like mine--and left the dash intact...
One day a friend borrowed his truck to move some furniture,and thought he'd be nice and top off the tank--with diesel!..
Not long after that his wife was driving it one day,and the "water in fuel" light came on...so she did what she thought was right...yup..
--she added water to the gas tank!..
.."but honey--it SAID it needed water in the fuel "...

From my trip to dune fest last summer. I-75, lower Michigan. It was flat and that was the speed of traffic. It stayed above 80 for a couple hours. The truck is happier at 80 than it is at 55. Optimal cruise is probably 70 or so.
Yes, it's still a factory 6.2 engine, and, yes, it takes it's sweet time getting there.

Was there a 454 pushing you?
Nope. But I did have a cool orange flag. That added at least 50HP.
