    04 fz6 been sitting fuel pump issue

    So after trying the WOT for days on end I read something on voltage dropping from battery when starting and thought I was losing a little much, can't remember values right now, so replaced starter relay. Bike cranked with WOT throttle and stayed on for about 15 secs, like it had before, sounded...

    04 fz6 been sitting fuel pump issue

    got the pump in ( thanks anyways cali rider- probably would of gotten it faster from you ) swapped the plugs to the old ones in case the new ones were fouled, and they were slightly wet ( after attempting to start a few times ) still no go, engine may have stumbled once or twice but that...

    04 fz6 been sitting fuel pump issue

    It's cold this morning, tried to start up w 13.6v while on charger. No luck tried 5 8-10sec holds of ign. First two no throttle ( smelled gas ) last three WO throttle. 12.7v after cranking attempts so I'm guessing the battery is good ( it's new ) and plugs are new as well This led to me look...

    04 fz6 been sitting fuel pump issue

    I was testing the spark with an old plug but I put brand new plugs in gapped to what the manual said ( can't remember right off what it was ) when I hooked up the new battery. I am also getting 13.7-14 now while charging. Airbox is off right now I'm getting the readings from a 20$ Walmart...

    04 fz6 been sitting fuel pump issue

    Cleaned and reinstalled the fuel pump and reg a few times and it doesn't run out of the outlet like it did before. Still not getting any fire, not even gurgling or stumbling when I add fuel via syringe. But it's been like that since it cut off when running the only time I've ever had it...

    04 fz6 been sitting fuel pump issue

    The pressure test I did was referring to the pressure regulator ( I think that's what it's called ) a little valve that comes out of the plastic pump housing. I used my gauge on my pump to determine if the valve was closing properly at 36psi and it was. So if it does siphon from the hose on the...

    04 fz6 been sitting fuel pump issue

    Tried to upload video but it's giving me a hard time Not sure about how to hook the pressure gauge up to the fuel pump but I'm getting a consistent 3 foot stream.... Also blocked off fuel outlet and it builds up pressure in a second and shoots out of the pressure reg/relief. I'm guessing its...

    04 fz6 been sitting fuel pump issue

    I just replaced the electric motor, didn't know that piece came apart. I do have a syringe or two laying around. I'm a little confused about the bucket of water test. Assemble pump w all parts and I'm guessing place the pump with the fuel outlet out of the water ( so it can shoot out...

    04 fz6 been sitting fuel pump issue

    From the diagram posted earlier in the thread it looks like it would seal the fuel pump ( but it doesn't effect how it lines up in the plastic fuel pump housing) but it's hard to tell by looking at it from the outside. And just to be clear the old one is the one that's cracked. The one I'm using...

    04 fz6 been sitting fuel pump issue

    When I first got it it wasn't turning on. I removed it, flushed it with gas and it started working again, can't remember why I took it out again. I think it sounded funny but when I took it apart I noticed the black top piece was cracked. Probably from me somehow... And yes it'll empty the...

    04 fz6 been sitting fuel pump issue

    Just to be clear it only comes out when my fuel line is disconnected so idk if it's too much of a hazard but idk crap. Lol Definitely appreciate the help this far! Looking into ignition issues as well now Also if there is a part or angle in not getting well I can take more pics, there just...

    04 fz6 been sitting fuel pump issue

    Also checked the relief valve again and it releases air until my compressor drops just under 40 and it seals no longer letting air through. So I'm guessing it's okay And it leaks fuel when the line is disconnected from the fuel outlet, maybe I'll start leaving the line on if it has a check...

    04 fz6 been sitting fuel pump issue

    It definitely didn't leak out originally when I removed the pump. The first couple times even.... It's when I put the new rotor in when it started pouring out instantly. Idk if that matters tho. Have it apart, having trouble posting pics. Also I did disconnect the ignition coils to change the...

    04 fz6 been sitting fuel pump issue

    Okay, so I'll check relief valve and post pics tomorrow. So, just to be clear because I haven't messed with FI much gas shouldn't just flow out of the outlet of the fuel pump? And that may mean that once the line is hooked up the bikes not pumping fuel? Bc the relief valve is just open and...

    04 fz6 been sitting fuel pump issue

    I've seen other posts on this and I haven't figured out my issue. Got the bike all cleaned up, new battery ( it was throwing out a code ) cleared the codes, cleaned out the gas tank. Removed and changed fuel pump rotor. Cleaned out pressure relief valve also and it seemed to hold pressure up...
