two quick questions


1- how much pressure does the xb fuel pump put out?

2- where is the sensor located that tells the pump when to flow more fuel or less fuel?

3- ok this is the last one. where is the best place to have make oil lines?

3 - any hydraulic shop, and in the midwest, any O'reilly autoparts.

2 - The "regulator" is in the pump assy. I'm pretty sure it's fixed to *1*, but adjustable regulators are available. However, you can't regulate it down to the 1-2 PSI required for a carburetor, as it will kill the pump. A simple pumpectomy, with a cheapo electric pump externally would probably be your best bet, with gravity-feed from your tank outlet to the pump. Then you can sell the FI pump on eBay!

1 - 60 to 65 PSI.

That looks just like a pump from a car or truck. How many Lph or gpm? Any measurements? How often should that sock be changed?
