Hey, everyone. I recently bought a 95 ZX7, and everything was fine, then I went out to ride it, and it had some problems starting. I figured it wasn't getting fuel, or the carbs were dirty. So, thoroughly cleaned the carbs, and the hoses. Nothing clogged, and the carbs were actually fairly clean. When i put everything back together, I went to turn it on.. and... The fuel pump kicked on, but never stopped trying to build pressure. What could be the problem?

Check all the lines, and the filter.

To test the pump, use a bucket of fuel (kerosene is a better choice to be honest) and a couple of hoses. See if it pumps anything. Then kink the hose and see if it shuts off if it is in fact running.
