The fuel pressure spec is not 3.3-3.8 Bar.
On the early cars, before the introduction of the returnless fuel systems, there are two measurements a static measurement with no engine vacuum (engine not running, fuel pump activated) that is 3.8 +/- 0.2 Bar and the second measurement with the engine idling (vacuum to the FPR) is 3.3 Bar +/- 0.2 Bar. These measurements test both the pump and the regulator.

Also, the fuel rail caps are not reusable and need to be replaced with new ones.
