If your getting less than 12 Volts (and your battery if fully charged), its possible thats the reason for the low pressure. Not saying this is the case but if it were me, I would check it before ripping the car apart. I believe the fuel pump in your year is controlled by an upstream relay.
May...
Just check the Voltage with a meter when cycling the key to make sure you are getting FULL voltage.
Can do this without an ODB I reader. OBD I does not support bi-directional communication to turn on the Fuel Pump Circuit like OBD II can (OBD II uses CAN).
Do you have a bidirectional scanner where you can use it to turn on the Fuel Pump? Also make sure you are getting full 12 volt power at the Pump.
Chuck had my 96 for 4 days (didn't have the time to do it myself) replaced all the know bad 96 gaskets and seals and changed thermostat to 180 deg...
I have a Xtool D9 and its Bidirectional. I love the Bidirectional feature. Does pretty much everything under the Sun including OBD I.
Comes with 3 years of free updates as well.
Personally I would ditch that setup and put it back to factory, bleeding the system is not difficult. Your introducing additional failure points with that setup.
Just me though....
Ya, I agree, something looks out of square to me. Rocker / pedestal as mentioned. I would replace both. The Valve looks like it may need to be replaced or it could take out the new Rocker. Make sure the guide looks good as well as the steam not being bent at the top.
Just use a good compatible oil.
