    Tips and advice for new owners

    I thought we could only push 7PSI max to the IP or seals will start to blow and or leaks will occur. From my understanding, the current fuel pump is rated at 4-7 PSI. This would be the best pump Facet 40285. Cost some coin but well worth it and very reliable.
