Electric fuel pump

My Fireblade fuel pump has become unreliable. It has stopped for the second (and last) time.
Rather than buy another second hand bike pump I was thinking of buying a new Facet one.
What pressure does the blade one run at? Should I buy the 1.5 - 2.5 PSI or the 2.5 - 3 PSI.
I'm running Fireblade carbs on an 1800 Zetec.
Bill.

The lower pressure one definately, you may still need to regulate it down with a filter king or similar.

Be carefull with the Facet pumps, many are specified as not suitable for motorcycle use.

I ran my fireblade on the facet 1.5 - 2.5 PSI pump without any issues and no need to insert extra regulation.
