Note, above I said feed diameter "might" be an issue. It won't stop it running but could restrict it at full chat. So I'd try with the existing line and change it IF you experience problems... Unless you just want to sort it all at one go.

What size is it now?
5/16"- 8mm probable/might be OK.
3/8"- 10mm upward I'd expect to be fine.

Well I have ignition, Well sort of.
It's chugged into life but I didn't want to keep it going until I have fitted regulator that I've just ordered.
Steady progress.

Hi Brad,

The Guys have all made valid points, and worth following for sure. I'm going to throw a curve ball in here having experienced something very similar on my own ZX10 3rd Gen. I bought the car as a project and one of the jobs was to tidy up the loom, which in itself was okay, however, on reconnecting the throttle body harness there are two connectors (on the rhs) sat very close to each other for the throttle and choke flaps, both of which are exactly the same fittings apart from the fact one has a grey underside and the other black. The respective potentiometers are colour coded the same way. If these are connected the wrong way round, regardless of what fuel pressure is present the engine will struggle to start, if at all. Worth a few minutes to check, had me confused for a while!

Best Regards,

Keith
