Can anyone tell me how much pressure the electric fuel pump in the fuel filter housing produces?
Thanks!

Welcome to LOST

as Kniggit stated - the engine pump pulls a vacuum back to the fuel tank - if the system is tight that works well. if there are any leaks then you have problems - from hard starts and stumbling performance - to potiential fuel head fires (the #1 leak source appears to be the plastic casting at the fuel head/fuel heater)

FYI - several folks have added lift pumps to fix the problems - 3-4 psi to 9psi have been used without problems
