Update... Took pump out again. Turned around the little plastic pipe piece and put the o ring on top of it. Back together and started on the button. Throttle doesn't kill it now but it's running lumpy terrible. Still idles for 2 minutes and dies. Does anyone know the correct orientation of that...

So I think the pump is priming enough fuel into the rail for it to run for a bit. But that o ring is letting fuel past the outlet pipe of the pump and back into the tank because the two halves of the outlet pipe are in effect not sealed and one constant tube. I'll have to take the pump out again...

Hi, thanks for jumping in. No error codes. Still starts on the button first time every time and then dies the second I touch the throttle or after 2 minutes of no throttle. I suspect that little o ring in the pump. But need to go to work now :(

Update... Started this morning on the button with no throttle. Ran for 2 minutes and died. Cranked for another minute with WOT, nothing. Left for a minute. Started again on the button with no throttle. Ran for 2 minutes and died as soon as I applied throttle. Idles fine for the first minute and...

Hi, Thanks for reply. I'm going to find a garage that will come collect the thing and fix it. It's too much for me and I'm not bad mechanically, I service my cars. I bypassed the kill switch so yes, that's off. Yes the pump primes. Its on the centre stand and its in neutral. It ran for a bit...

Update... Drained tank and took the pump out. Filter not dirty at all. Put back together. Ran for a bit. Now it won't even fire. Plenty of fuel in the tank. Don't know what to do now. Can't take it to a garage. It's buggered

Tank off and drained. Top half pump off can see filter. Not very dirty.

Update. Rode tonight and problem still there. Lifted tank to check for kinks in fuel line and all other hoses you can see without airbox removal. All fine. Put some more Seafoam in gave it a GOOD shake. Took out again for 20 miles sitting high revs but no throttle to try and blow through. Opened...

Hi there. You replied to me yesterday on my similar issue of FZ6 losing power and galloping at higher revs. I just wonder, do you still have those photos of how to remove the gauze filter on the fuel pump to clean it. I'm planning on tank off this weekend. Thanks, Simon

Kill switch bypassed. As far as I have read, its not an MOT check, fingers crossed. Will ride and see if improved tonight. Is it also worth bypassing the stand kill switch? Any others?

Used it S and G? Sorry. Newb. Was thinking of the Iridium set NGK. Any experience? Kill switch only used by accident. Very very rarely. Good to hear the bypass is simple. Think I'll do it anyway, waste of time it being there if not used and will eventually go wrong anyway. Plugs weren't in...

Update.... So I rode to work this morning ( 45 miles, mostly dual carriageway ), the bike seems to be a lot smoother starting, idling and again up to the power band. Through 1st, 2nd and 3rd the problem is not so pronounced, but 4th, 5th and 6th forget it. Anything over half throttle and it's...

Thanks very much both of you. How easy is the permanent bridge for the switch please? Because I read that you have to take all the airbox off to get to the connector where the bridge can be made? Is this true, or is there a much simpler way? And how difficult is the fuel filter clean up, has...

Thanks very much for the reply. I will certainly have a look at that and investigate. I was going towards fuel starvation next, and valve clearances, then fuel pump/filter problems. Do you know if the fuel filter is replaceable on these? I can't find just the gauze part anywhere and everyone...

Hi All, This is my first post, I'm new to the forum. Desperate for advice please. I have a 2007 FZ6 S2 Fazer, 23k miles, completely stock except for K&N. Had the bike 2 years from 10k miles and it's been a dream until about a month ago. As soon as it comes out the other side of the familiar mid...
