ah man... i don't know any stock specs for that... but remember that carbs call for decently low PSI... my weber only runs at 3.5

any pump will work, invest in a pressure regulator to adj if needed. around 4psi is good.

niki carbs are really close to the following model replaced by hitachi dch. might be a needle or seat prob. but a regulator from parts stores work good and the dial is labeled with psi increments. its either a carb or pressure problem.
