I'll have to take your word for it. I thought that non-return vehicles used the same sort of pressure regulator (except in the tank) as return type vehicles do. Testing pressures at different voltages would be interesting, but I don't have a fuel pressure gauge I can just plug in.

I'd be very interested in any info anyone has on how much power the ignition coil and fuel pump require. I suspect its not a tiny amount.
