    I'm running my 86 VFR at 1psi fuel pressure. I assume this pressure is adequate, I don't want it to run lean, anybody have any ideas if this is good enough, I think it probably is, any thoughts?

    Stock pump is supposed to put out 3 psi, right ? So why assume 1 is OK ? Possibly no affect at all........... or maybe you risk running too lean at top end......as you may suspect. :pirate:

    Squrriel, many people run these gravity feed, and that is nothing like 1psi, I can twist the dial and I have 3 psi, just wasn't sure what the float needles will handle
