Default fuel pressure to high???
I just replaced my air dog165 motor, now my pressure is around 23 or 24 at idle, is that to high? Is there a chance I might ruin something?

slightly high, but not high enough to worry about it.

I ran the same pressure years ago before I got my airdog and didn't have any problems, and still don't years later with the same injection pump. I run 20-21psi idle now though.
