Stock '74 2.0

How much pressure does the injector need to work properly?
I know the fuel reg is set about 29 psi.

What Jim said. The pump runs for a half second when the key is turned on. Once the engine runs the ecu triggers constant power to the pump. Pressure has nothing to do with it.


"The pump has power whenever the key is on." Not correct.



Thats what I needed to know. My factory wire doesn't have power anymore. I ran a new wire from the fuse panel that is hot when the key is on. Being as the pump turns on, then off when you first turn the key on I thought the computer was controlling the pump and turning it on and off "as needed". If it is suppose to run all the time I'll just leave it as it is.
I guess I was more worried about wearing the pump out early and the constant fuel flowing all the time but if it's normally that way anyways....

Thanks for the help
