Hi, for the second time in a week in my 1973 Cherokee 140, I have had to abort my takeoff due to low fuel pressure. Mechanical and electric fuel pump both work but for some reason when I give it full power my fuel pressure drops more than halfway from 0 to the middle the fuel gauge. I have owned this plane for two years now and have never seen this happen. My local mechanic looked it over but couldn't find anything wrong. Is there anyone else with this same issue or may have any idea what this could be???
