I have a 1.7L. The pump I have looks like this.
 https://www.lceperformance.com/ProductDetai...eUaAvWtEALw_wcBWhere I see it says it is 5psi and recommends a pressure regulator. But I don't see one. I have this single carb.  How bad is that? Do I really need a regulator? What is going on without it? Related is that the PO said they recently gave up on FI. But I assume no engine work was done. I found this pump in the trunk.  Recommendations? |

Did the PO give you the FI stuff, too? If so, consider putting it back on the car. Single carb is the least optimal config.
