Re: fuel pump pressure

I don't think you're fuel injected. The fuel pump just keeps the bowl full. Vacuum from the pistons suck the fuel out. Or am I missreading your ?.

Re: fuel pump pressure

I've never seen a spec on it, nor measured it.
Should just be a steady stream, 2-3 lb of pressure, so as not to blow past the needle valve.
