    as the title states this one isnt at all about jeeps, my bike is the target of knowledge...

    So ive been having some fuel delivery issues. now previously the pump is supposed to be intermittent, pumps only when needed via pressure regulator (1.8 psi average), but the pump regulator failed so i instead went out and got a Mr. Gasket #42S micro inline pump for it (replacement used factory style pump is $350)
    , problem is it pumps constantly at a self regulated 2 to 3.5 psi. my question is does anyone with knowledge of carbs know what this is going to do? the bike ran BEAUTIFULLY while i was pounding on it but i didnt have time to buzz around and just putt with it. i have a hunch that without another regulator to cut off the fuel at that factory interval i will end up flooding the piss out of it..... any feedback?

    bike is 1997 Suzuki GSX-R 600...

    i know it isnt a jeep related issue but i REALLY miss the hell out of said scooter

    It needs to be regulated, to much flow to the carbs. You might be able to find a pump used but usually it will come with a tank. I dont know much about the carbed SRAD's but I personally owned a 98 750 and rebuilt it from ground up(still have parts left if needed)
    Also have you tried messing with the mixture?.. might get ya by.

      Well I ended up just saying to hell with it and gambling on the possibility that it would be fine, I won the gamble...idles beautifully even when the fan kicks on at 225 degrees and even with stock gearing if I lean back a bit and goose it in 1st it will pick the front wheel up, something it hasn't done in ages....what kind of spare stuff do you have
