Post by zach861300 »

I need a fuel pump for my 86 1300 voyager but can't find any. Does anyone have a spare one?

Hi, why not go to your local car accessory / custom shop and get an aftermarket one. As long as it can supply 3.5 bar pressure (50psi) you shouldn’t have any problems.
Take your old pump with you so you can find one of similar size.
You DON’T have to use Kawasaki parts.
While you are doing this I would change the fuel pressure regulator for an adjustable one. There are plenty out there.

Good advice on using an aftermarket generic fuel pump.
But, replacing the pressure regulator, UH, UH! It's not just a pressure regulator as used on most systems. It is variable as the needs of the engine dictate on acceleration. It varies the pressure between 32 and 34psi to compensate for the sudden rush of air when opening the throttle, much like the accelerator pumps do on auto carbs of yesteryear! Replacing that regulator with a solid-state one will cause a slight stumble when cranking on the throttle.

I believe the fuel pump from a mid-eighties Subaru Brat will be the same you'll have to buy a 90-degree fitting to screw into one end of it I discovered this on my 81 GPZ 1100 the same fuel pump as it along with air flow meter even the parts number was the same on the flow meter you can pick the fuel pump up at Park Shore or wrecking yard is where I noticed this that was many years ago so part store probably be your only option

"Air flow meter"???? Not on a ZN1300.
