The fuel pump supplies low pressure fuel unlike the modern FI system that supplies it at 35 - 40 PSI. The injection pump supplies the high pressure fuel, 250 psi or so as previously mentioned. Be very careful, the high pressure spray can get into your skin or tear it. Gas is not good for people.

Do not adjust the throttle body stop or the injection pump stop to adjust the idle speed.


Will the engine run if you give it gas?
