Kedo replacement now fitted. Ta for the tips, jht and Stormy.

For anyone else intending to do this be aware that you will need to file the mounting holes slightly to fit it to the existing bracket. You will also need some fuel pipe as the inlet (or outlet depending on which way round you mount it) is the oposite way round to standard.

The existing pump did not have any obvious holes in the diaphram but it was in much worse condition generally than Stormy's.

Snot really a pump though is it? Seems more like a vacuum valve. Don't see why Yam couldn't incorporate it into the tap like everyone else sad.gif .

Time will tell if the new kiddy cures the locking.
Red and black '96. Blue spot Thunderace calipers with braided two-line front hoses - 'kin brill. 17 incher out front. Renthal street/trail bars - vibe free. 1150GS brush guards. HIDs - niiiiice. Stebel Magnum - crikey. Nonfango hard luggage. Nexxus. SW-Motech center stand. Had a Powerbronze tall screen - too noisy - went back to standard.

Stealth Diamond Black 900 with lurvely black frame. GS brush guards. HotGrips on a relay - cos I keep forgetting. SW-Motech center stand and engine bars. LED rear light. Vario set to min. 17 incher. PR2s.

All now a fond (very fond) memory. Maybe again some day.

Looks like the kedo valve has sorted it.
