Hey all. First of all, thanks for looking. I have my Autometer boost gauge T tapped into the hose that runs from the intake manifold into the solenoid. The solenoid also has a hose running from it to the fpr. I noticed what I thought was water in my clear plastic boost gauge line. I took it apart and flushed it out. I then realized that it was gasoline. Then put it back together and started the car again. Turned the car off and noticed more gas in the plastic gauge line again. Is this normal? I have searched for this problem online but found nothing.

Your FPR is most likely letting fuel through to the vacuum line. It's most likely time for a new one.

Yep, sounds like an internal leak in the FPR.
