For diagnostics, I would put it inline between the pump and the carb. As for pressure, it should be between 5-7 for carbed.

What type of pressure sensor are you using? The one I am talking about is an inline. You just connect a hose on each end.

Something like this with a T-connector with fuel barbs on the T to run the hose to.
