when you buy one the instruction sheet that comes with it will tell you your starting point altho I went by the instructions and it was 120# at start-up, with mine the adjust seemed to affect the upper and lower pressure a like amount.
Light travels faster than the speed of sound,,,this is why some people seem bright untill you hear them speak.

"I went by the instructions and it was 120# at start-up,"
Dartman 120 seems pretty high?
Will setting it that high adversely affect anything?
Thanks Mike didn't mention that I shut it off and adjusted it out till I got 75# and I don't think it was turned in origionally as much as Cab said to set it but I am sure he has done it a time or three

those almost always run way too high. I have had to cut almost every one to get a reasonable and useable pressure.

Melling high volume pump. Not the high pressure pump.
Has the Milodon adjustable regulator that replaces the one that came with the pump. I have 85 startup right now. Is this too high?
Will it stress the oil/dist. shaft or cause hp loss?
Thanks mIke
"Spit out a cam gallery plug

Has this happened to you? At what pressure?
Thanks for the reply's Mike
