Re: [T3] Fuel Pump Specs


Russ said this just the other day:

Our pumps can produce over 60 psi. That is all my gauge went to, and it
damaged the gauge.

End quote.

You would want to be able to shoot out over 30 PSI, because you can
always drop the pressure down, but not raise the pressure, while
maintaining the needed volume. The pressure regulator turns down the
pressure by bleeding off the excess back into the return line to the
tank.
