Default Beer Pump and pressure

I am primarily a draft line cleaner but will help out customers in trouble. Dinner hour on a Saturday night -- all four lines pouring foam. Someone had removed the lock over the regulators and made their own adjustments. A 10 foot run complete with FOB's, Glycol lines and beer pumps -- 8#'s pressure on kegs and 50#'s on beer pumps. Increased the keg pressure and reduced pressure on beer pumps.

Never played with pressure on beer pumps before; How do you determine correct pressure on pumps? In a quest for knowledge can you tell me what happens when a beer pump fails? Would you get foamy beer or no beer flow? Any articles I can read on beer pumps?

Any advantage of having beer pumps and FOB's on a 10 foot draw or just a super sales job.
