<VV> Fuel pump pressure

[Matt Nall]

Someone suggested shortening the spring to lower the pressure.  Just like
the coil springs on your suspension when you cut a coil off you get stiffer
springs not weaker.  To lower fuel pressure you want a weaker spring.
The cam operated pushrod compresses the spring and when the cam drops the
pushrod the spring is what pressurizes the fuel.

 Clark!!  Apples to Apples!!   The pump spring is not in a moving suspension!   It's almost static!!


The HEIGHT  remains the same!  Constantly.....  so you are decreasing pressure exerted as you shorten it!
