I am going to replace the electric fuel pump for my Zenith model 61 marine carb. I can't find any numbers or model on the old electric pump. What is the fuel pressure I should be looking for to replace it?

You need 5 to 7 psi pump.

Now I'm really getting confused, I was looking at past threads for the information and found one by Paul T Feb 2006 he says 2 psi. May I should mention the motor is a Palmer 4 cylinder 22 hp M60.

Hope this helps

Erine, thanks for the information. I am sorry I didn't list the engine size first, the bigger they are the more thursty they need to be. Thanks again.
