Fuel pressure

Fuel pressure
Based on my readings, it would seem that I have low fuel pressure.
I tied in a gauge at the fuel supply line and these are my readings:
KEY ON:ENGINE OFF = 29 psi
ENGINE RUNNING AT IDLE. VACUUM HOSE ATTACHED TO FPR = 27 PSI
ENGINE RUNNING AT IDLE. VACUUM HOSE DETACHED FROM FPR = 27 PSI
VACUUM HOSE REATTACHED TO FPR ENGINE AT WOT = 27 PSI.
I am going to replace the fuel filter and perform another test.
The FPR looks good as there is no fuel at the vacuum hose indicating that the diaphragm is good.
I am hoping it is not the Fuel Pump.
What say you?
Haynes manual specs:
At idle:
Vacuum at FPR = 30 - 38 psi
No Vacuum at FPR = 40 - 46 psi
