hi mate,

try and use the matching bike pump or one from a similar bike,

generally works out cheaper, you know its going to work and you dont need a pump and regulator

If you want cheap then any bike fuel pump will do. The best thing about a bike pump is that it keeps pushing fuel through until it can feel a resistance then it slows down to required fuel rate.

ZX6r pumps go fairly cheap on ebay - £20 or so.

i just used the the bike fuel pump, as they are self regulated. mine cost £15.

no need to laugh i have the 1.6 pinto on cbr600fx bike carbs, it pulls good.

do you do anything with the tps


cd.thomson - 22/10/09 at 08:03 PM

tps and the fuel pump? no they dont work together.

the tps sensor can be used with an ignition control unit like megajolt.

You can use the pinto fuel pump without prob. I have gsxr600srad carbs on 2.0ltr. I left the TPS on but not used. Poss to change to mega jolt later if required.

Bike pump is best. No need for reg then. See my for sale thread

The tps is only needed for 3d ignition mapping otherwise just leave on not connected to anything.

Nowt wrong with a 1.6 bud.
