    Difference between U.S. & Cdn. capacity plates

    My guess The US uses 185# (since 12-01-2011). That number used to be 160. The average person weighs much more The formula for US capacity still uses 150#/person in its (Length x width) / 15 I believe the rest of the world uses 80kg and does not "round up" with outdated formula

    Switching from Volvo TBI to Carb on a 1996 5.7 GI

    the low pressure isnt a wiring issue. your regulator in the top of the TBI unit has debris, or your high pressure pump isnt running.
