Hey BigBoy, do you have a link to the thread where they talk about the facet pump mod? do they use a regulator?
Question 2: How in the heck did you think to look in a Rokon forum for our fuel pump issues????


1. It's in the http://www.advrider.com forum somewhere. Seems like the thread went 2-3 years and 65 pages!
2. I start searching on one thing and it leads to something that leads to something else. Oh yeah, one of the guys has a Youtube video on his install... that's how I found the thread.

FYI, on one of the Rokon posts a member says he checked the psi on the stock pump at 3 lbs and the psi on the facet 40171 was also holding at 3 lbs.
And, per one of the techies on that forum, the way our Mitubishi pumps work to regulate pressure is the contact points kill power to the pump at 3psi. The facet runs continuously and bypasses the fuel from the pressure side back to the low pressure side to hold 3psi.
