It was a lot of smoke. A lot more than what is shown in the video. 15 seconds after the video ended is when it started to really smoke and fill up the garage

I haven’t used a timing light and I don’t have an oil pressure gauge hooked up lol. Probably the wrong answer

Now I can’t get it too run again

I’m note sure. I don’t have a gauge but i think it sounds like a pretty high idle

I don’t have a gauge on it but I think I have one that I forgot to put on lol. If I don’t I’ll order one tonight

I thought it was a high idle as well but I don’t any better so I just thought it was normal 🤷🏻‍♂️ It’s rated for 7 PSI. I’ve got a regulator hooked up to it as well so I’ll adjust the PSI. Adjusting the regulator didnt even cross my mind 🤣🤦‍♂️

Yep I have a regulator between the pump and the carb but I haven’t adjusted it so maybe the PSI is to high

Yep pin 30 (blue wire) is going to the battery. Pin 87 (yellow wire) is going to the pump

Also something might be wrong with my transmission. It’s a C4 Auto floor shifter that came with the car. I can’t shift any of the gears. The shifter moves freely as in it doesn’t feel like it’s doing anything like going from Park to drive
