I find it hard to believe your pressure is that high. Unless there is 
blockage of the return line from the primary pressure regulater or the 
regulater itself is stuck there is no reason for it. Maybe your gauge 
is out of calibration. The proper place to check fuel pressure is the 
bolt on the top center of the fuel distributer in line to the control 
pressure regulater on the valve cover. Max pressure is to be no more 
that 5.5 bar or 14.5 x 5.5 or about 80 psi. With such high pressures 
at start it is all going to the cold start valve. Assume the primary 
regulater is stuck. Try to remove it and clean it making sure 
everything is clean and moves easily. It is adjustable and should be 
set between 5.1 - 5.3 bar. This could have happened overnight by just 
a piece of dirt lodging in the regulater causing it to stick. The 
primary contol pressure regulater is on the side of the fuel mixture 
unit. The control pressure regulater is on the valve cover. The 
primary control pressure regulater is the one that contols system 
pressure and is the one that is either stuck or has the bolcked 
return line.
