Can you please tell us year and model of Zx6 engine/carb unit you’re using? They’re all a little different.

sorry its a 98 zxr 600..thank you

I looked at USA parts diagrams for both a ‘98 Zx6E (Zx600E) and a Zx6R (Zx600G) and neither have a fuel regulator. There is a fuel shut-off valve (petcock), a fuel filter and a fuel pump. No other components between the fuel tank and carbs.

ok my stuff up i just checked my paper work i got with the engine its a 1996 not 98 could be why im having problems ha thank you for your help

If ur running the engine's fuel pump then u dont (shouldnt) need a regulator, if ur running anything else u might need one, check w the mim-mod guys at the tracks and someone should b able to help u out in that direction

ok guys i got her going but when i put fuel pump on and wen bowls a full fuel comes out of all the inlet pipes like i have to much pressure the fuel lines have me stumped heres some picks cheers there's one pick with fuel line going into the bottom of the carbs

Are you running a fuel pump off of the same donor bike?

Later, Doug

 

[davidhaynes1967]

Yes same fuel pump

Fuel pumps for carbed bikes should only be pushing 2-3, maybe 4, psi. The fuel needle valves should be able to shut the fuel off and dead-head the system if they’re working properly.

the carb fuel bowls were filthy but now its flooding and still coming out the fuel inlet pipes i think it needs new rubbers...all i really need to no now is the inlet for fuel the bottom line? or is it suppose to run threw the regulator
