My fuel pressure usually reads 3 lbs. I have a VM-800. On takeoff it =20
will sometimes start beeping and show a pressure of .5 to 1.5 lbs. =20
When and if I turn on the electric pump the pressure goes up to about =20=

4 lbs. I have an O-320 engine. At full throttle, full rich and 1,000 =20
ft my fuel consumption is 11.5 GPH and my EGT's read 1,520=B0F.
