Do send it a bit further north, we could use a little cooling off. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

not one to let God get in my way...I went home for lunch and put some gas in it....NO LEAKS!

then I tried the new pump....no pumping was going on, I couldnt see fuel in the clear filter I installed just for this purpose.

I popped up the tank and found the hose off the bottom was kinked. I re-routed it slightly and replaced it. Tried pumping again and SUCCESSS!!!!!!!

Fired right up and idled beautifully!

I goosed it a little and it seemed a little freer with the goosing.

My question would be... does putting a regulated pump on there make any difference?

It had a facet, unregulated. It was really sputtery and kinda hesitated at idle.

Is this possible?

By the way....knock my motorcycle exhaust...but god-damn does it sound good. I missed the sound of my red & black sex machine
