Hard to start, but will idle after engine warms up. When accelerating, sluggish but runs good a 3000 rpms. Tested fuel pressure at 39 psi. KOEO. When key is in on position, no priming of the injectors. Have replaced spark plugs and their wires, replaced fuel filter, and added fuel injector cleaner. Could there be more than one problem?

Your fuel pressure is way too low-should be 64-85psi KOEO-I'm thinking fuel pump

Test the engine coolant temperature sensor, idle air control valve/mtr/ISC , ECC power relay and the fuel pump relay

Haynes Repair Manual for 1992 Probe that I have shows fuel pressure for a 2.2 liter to be 34 to 40 psi. My pressure reading is 39 psi. It says the 3.0 liter has 64 to 85 psi. Do you still think it is the fuel pump???
