rfmueller Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 Sounds like a plugged screen in your gas tank: At higher fuel consumption it chokes out, but at idle, runs fine. Regardless, the best place to start with something like that is fuel system. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rfmueller Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 Search you tube for FZ07 fuel pump removal. It's not that bad. The fuel pump will have the screen, etc. attached to it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member norcal616 Posted May 29, 2020 Premium Member Share Posted May 29, 2020 Fuel filter is non serviceable, its molded into the fuel pump housing... it has a pre filter that's easily replaced... Double check your PCV connections and double check map is loaded onto PCV... Picture shows fuel pump with base mounting plate off... my finger is on the fuel filter... 2 2015 fz-07- Hordpower Edition...2015 fj-09- 120whp- Graves Exhaust w/Woolich Race Kit- tuned by 2WDW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rfmueller Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 Yes, that is correct. Once you have the four screws out of the rear of the tank, see if you can disconnect the overflow hoses, the quick disconnect gas line, and the electrical plug that is attached to the fuel pump. Once you have those done, remove the long screw from the front of the tank. If you remove all of the screws first, the tank will have a tendency to get knocked off the bike and on to the floor when pulling that other stuff off. ( Just trust me on that ). After the fuel tank is freed up, it's easy to dump out, and then you're free to check everything very easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did the display lights flicker when it was sputtering? If they did it could be an indication of a short in a wire. Beemer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
