Hey guys i'm stoked to have found the site and i sure hope someone can help me out. <!-- s:???: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_confused.gif" alt=":???:" title="Confused" /><!-- s:???: --> My Question is do 91 mdl 3LN3's use a fuel pump? if so does anyone out there have or know where i can get hold of one?! my bike has been apart for 2 years and i'm currantly re building it but my mechenic says i'm missing the pump! I didn't know they used one!! <!-- s:shock: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_eek.gif" alt=":shock:" title="Shocked" /><!-- s:shock: --> Also i was wondering if it's possible to run uni filters on the carbies instead of using the air box and filter, i don't run fairings if that makes any differance! Streetfighter all the way!!! <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_cool.gif" alt="" title="Cool" /><!-- s --> Any info would be much apreciated! RIDE ON! [/quote]
Yes it uses a fuel pump. Best place to find them for an fzr would be a wreckers (I am not sure if there are any other bikes that share this part, or if a generic fuel pump could work - someone else may be able to help). Not sure about the air filter though I think some other people have used unifilters...
yeah i just called vic motorcycle wreckers and can get a pump for $125. The main worry i have with the filter idea is weather or not i'd have to re-jet the carbies, people i've spoken to about it say i would have to but my mechenic seems to think it'd be fine <!-- s:???: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_confused.gif" alt=":???:" title="Confused" /><!-- s:???: --> ! Does anyone out there have any suggestions!? Thanks for your input BOZ cross ya fingers for me!!
You would need to consider re-jetting your carbies if the filter greatly increased the flow of air into them, however I am not sure if the unifilter would alter this mixture enough. So that is probably why some are saying you need to, others are saying not to worry. I know an aftermarket can (whcih increases the flow through) requires re-jetting, but not sure about the front-end. So no help from me... Out of curiosity - why are you considering the unifilter? Is it to gain more power, or another reason? There won't be a considerable power gain, so if that is the goal is it really worth it?
regarding your fuel pump.. i bought a new aftermarket one for mine and it worked perfectly.. $130 brand new.. Might be a better idea than 2nd hand...
