Default 1989 S10 2.8L V-6 w/TBI fuel pressure ?

I have a 1989 chevy S10 with a 2.8L V-6 w/TBI, that i am currently taking out the original gas tank with the in-tank fuel pump, and putting in a fuel cell withan inline pump.

My question is what is the correct fuel pressure needed out of the pump to not cause any low or high fuel pressure issues?

I have looked all around the web and called all kinds of different part stores, and have seen/heard everything from 5 - 66 psi.

Does anyone know what the true correct fuel pressure should befor this particular vehicle?

Well let me thank you for such a reply. I mean really, you yielded several answers by doing a search?? uh yeah thats my whole problem... many answers and all different. You know it might have been nice of you to... 1. put a link or two from things you found in your search, or 2. put down the info you found during your search, or even 3. inform of the terms used in your search, not just say hey go search.Oh well anyway,thank you so much again.

You obviously missed the point of my post ENTIRELY! The point of a search is using criteria that others may have used. Did you even try it instead of being a wise *** about my post? Must not have... How about 'fuel pressure' for a search criteria? How about 'fuel problems'??? Help yourself instead of criticizing the involvement!

My point here is that if you had made an attempt to search, you may have found threads on this VERY subject with minimal effort in less time, but hey, what the heck do I know...? Way to lash out though. Gonna get lots of help around here with an attitude of "everyonegive me an answer NOW!"...

My post was to teach you how to help yourself. If you were interested in such a task, you would have comprehended that fact.......


That being said you should:
1. Find your own links from things found in YOUR search
2. READ the info found in your search
3. try variations of your problem to use inYOUR search

Yeah thanks so much to you too.

BTW- Italics is the equivalent of sarcasm. [sm=icon_beat.gif]

you - You obviously missed the point of my post ENTIRELY!

No I believeI hit the point of your first post exactly, lets see it was "go search for yourself" which I believe is the exact opposite idea of a forum.

you - Did you even try it instead of being a wise *** about my post? Must not have...

Yes, I did search many time under many different topics, not only on these forums but also many others, andI believe I stated that in both my original post and my reply to you."I have looked all around the web and called all kinds of different part stores, and have seen/heard everything from 5 - 66 psi." and "uh yeah thats my whole problem... many answers and all different."

you - Help yourself instead of criticizing the involvement!

Hmm.. I thought spending the lastweek searching the web, calling parts stores, and all that was helping myself ? Maybe I am mistaken, didyou do all of that for me? No no, I'm pretty sureI did all of that myself.

you - My point here is that if you had made an attempt to search, you may have found threads on this VERY subject with minimal effort in less time, but hey, what the heck do I know...?

Apparently not how to read .. as stated in my original post, and then again in my reply to you, i had done many searches, andfoundmany answers, and all different. The question was which one was right."Does anyone know what the true correct fuel pressure should befor this particular vehicle?" Who's the one missing the point ??

you - Way to lash out though. Gonna get lots of help around here with an attitude of "everyonegive me an answer NOW!"

Hmm.. think the only one lashing out here is you .. being as my reply to your post was done nicely, even thanking you twice for your reply, and yours have not just once, but both times beenpretty muchsmart ***.I never once said "everyone give me an answer NOW!" that came from you not me, andI never acted in that fashion. I merely asked a question to which you wasted your and my time by posting a totaly worthless reply. As far as getting help around here ... well if your any representative of the type of help that one gets on these forums, thennothanks.

you - My post was to teach you how to help yourself. If you were interested in such a task, you would have comprehended that fact

Ok first you wouldn't have any clue of whatI could or couldn't comprehend. Second I think theres plentyabove to show who is uncomprehendinganything here.

you-BTW - Italics is the equivalent of sarcasm.

Yeah seems thats all you have is sarcasm.

I said to try a search, not go search for yourself. Instead of saying that you tried that and found nothing, you decised to show us who you are and be a jerkoff.

me - Did you even try it instead of being a wise *** about my post? Must not have...
you-Yes, I did search many time under many different topics, not only on these forums but also many others, andI believe I stated that in both my original post and my reply to you."I have looked all around the web and called all kinds of different part stores, and have seen/heard everything from 5 - 66 psi." and "uh yeah thats my whole problem... many answers and all different."

You obviously did not try this, or you would have found your answer, which is in several different places. Your whole problem is that you are a jerkoff.

me - Help yourself instead of criticizing the involvement!
you-Hmm.. I thought spending the lastweek searching the web, calling parts stores, and all that was helping myself ? Maybe I am mistaken, didyou do all of that for me? No no, I'm pretty sureI did all of that myself.

Here we are criticizing again. Did you find an answer yet? No and probably never will because your a jerk and nobody likes a jerk.

me - My point here is that if you had made an attempt to search, you may have found threads on this VERY subject with minimal effort in less time, but hey, what the heck do I know...?
you-Apparently not how to read .. as stated in my original post, and then again in my reply to you, i had done many searches, andfoundmany answers, and all different. The question was which one was right."Does anyone know what the true correct fuel pressure should befor this particular vehicle?" Who's the one missing the point ??

Who is missing the point? You obviously because I told you how to find it, and you still have not found it. Then again your sorry *** attitude could be clouding your vision, but who wants to give you the benefit of a doubt since your a jerkoff.

me - Way to lash out though. Gonna get lots of help around here with an attitude of "everyonegive me an answer NOW!"
you-Hmm.. think the only one lashing out here is you .. being as my reply to your post was done nicely, even thanking you twice for your reply, and yours have not just once, but both times beenpretty muchsmart ***.I never once said "everyone give me an answer NOW!" that came from you not me, andI never acted in that fashion. I merely asked a question to which you wasted your and my time by posting a totaly worthless reply. As far as getting help around here ... well if your any representative of the type of help that one gets on these forums, thennothanks.

Actually, maybe since you can't read or help yourself, you don;t realize that you lashed out at me first. If you rep yourself the way you have here then I say good riddance and don't come back jerkoff. I only tried to help you and because you have a big *** stick stuck in your *** you take it out on me? No thanks, leave and don't come back, we don't like your kind here.

me - My post was to teach you how to help yourself. If you were interested in such a task, you would have comprehended that fact

you- Ok first you wouldn't have any clue of whatI could or couldn't comprehend. Second I think theres plentyabove to show who is uncomprehendinganything here.

Your right I can't comprehend how lame you are. You come to us, asking a question, I try to help you help yourself, and you get your panties in a knot. That is just really pathetic, why don't you try Craigslist' rant and rave section if you want to act like a 9 year old.

me-BTW - Italics is the equivalent of sarcasm.
you-Yeah seems thats all you have is sarcasm.

That is correct, but only for jerkoffs like yourself.

Sorry you were too much of an *** to find your answer, then again what should we expect from a jerkoff like you? Not much.

ok well the answer you are looking for is right here. if you are working with a tbi system that has an electronic fuel pump, the pump needs to be able to push 7-10psi of fuel. being as that it is an inline pump it should be electric. you need to find atleast a 7psi inline electric fuel pump. anything less that that will not work

not a problem at all. i have run through the same experiences.i used to work in automotive repair shops and i am now ASE certified. more than likey the reason you came across so many diiferent ranges is because the psi is different after the fuel pump. it increases as it gets down the line for better injection. but with inline fuel pumps you wont be able to find one that goes up to 65 psi. it is pretty much based on the lines that create the pressure. but 7psi electronic inline fuel pump will work great. that is what i have used on all my blazers that i have and many different customers that have had them replaced

wow rabbit, you consistently show howoblivious you are.


"Instead of saying that you tried that and found nothing, you decised to show us who you are and be a jerkoff." [sm=bs.gif]


OMG you are f_cking insane.. in every post i have made on this, i have explicitly said that idid look all over and have come up with many different answers.. the question was WHICH ONE WAS CORRECT.


"You obviously did not try this, or you would have found your answer, which is in several different places. Your whole problem is that you are a jerkoff." [sm=icon_blah.gif]


once again.. nothing but idiocy and degrading commentsfrom you. i mean really dude how many f_cking times does someone have to tell you that they have searched and came up with many different answers and are looking for the correct one? apparently about 1500 more times i guess, since you still don't get it. I'm so sorry that you realized you were wrong and now are pissed about it and so must continue to try and escalate the situation to make yourself feel better. seems to me that your whole intent of this post fromthe start was to be a jackass.


"Who is missing the point? You obviously because I told you how to find it, and you still have not found it. Then again your sorry *** attitude could be clouding your vision, but who wants to give you the benefit of a doubt since your a jerkoff." [sm=lame.gif]


You .. your the only one that has ever been missing the point. You didnt tell me how to find anything,you said "try a search". yeah i had done that, that was the entire point of my original post remember "I have looked all around the web and called all kinds of different part stores, and have seen/heard everything from 5 - 66 psi."? wow you are dense man.


"Actually, maybe since you can't read or help yourself, you don;t realize that you lashed out at me first. If you rep yourself the way you have here then I say good riddance and don't come back jerkoff. I only tried to help you and because you have a big *** stick stuck in your *** you take it out on me? No thanks, leave and don't come back, we don't like your kind here." [sm=wakeup.gif]


Well since i have told you about 8 times already that you are wrong and missing whatthe question was aboutthen you are apparently the one who cant read. your the one who started any type of lashing dude, as previously stated i tried to be nice to you in my reply, thanking you twice for even replying. not my fault you immediately took offence to it and became a blathering idiot just because you have some big chip on your shoulder.


"Your right I can't comprehend how lame you are. You come to us, asking a question, I try to help you help yourself, and you get your panties in a knot. That is just really pathetic, why don't you try Craigslist' rant and rave section if you want to act like a 9 year old." [sm=wtf.gif]


once again .. downgrading me .. wow you must have one hell of an insecurity to need to continually try anddegrade people. Yes i came to the forum asking a question, only after searching through said forum and finding many different answers to my question, so posted one asking which one was correct. lets see.. "try a search" is helping someone help theirself? that shows your intellectual and maturity level, by yourautomatic assumtion that everyone new on here comes in asking a question without searching first.


Now .. since you have nothing to do butreply on my postcalling me names ill get it out of the way for you.. lets see it's . jerkoff, jerkoff, jerk, jerkoff,jerkoff, jerkoff, jerkoff.... that about right?ok now that that's out of the way.. maybe you can post some thing thats actually thought out and reasonable instead of letting your A.D.D. get the best of you.
