Are you sure of the fuel PN as my Kawasaki price file don't list a 49240-7001 but list a 49040-7001 which supersedes to 49040-0801 pump. Same as Oregon 07-700 and Stens 520-590.

Typo on my part. Amazon listing says the pump is a 49040-7001 but the inlet/outlet/pulse line fittings on the one I got are the same as the 49040-8002 and matched the old one on my engine. BTW, the new pump is defective. Son checked all the lines for blockage and, finding them all clear, put the old pump back on. She fired up and is running like a champ.

Thanks for al the help, guys!

Glad you got it fixed. Was going to suggest trying another new or known good fuel pump. Had one last year where the impulse line out of the crankcase was literally blocked. Blew it out with air compressor and crap came flying out. First time for everything.

Yes had many problems last with after market fuel pumps last year. Rotary actually could not delivery on some fuels because they were failing their own in house testing gave after 7 months and ordered OEM pumps for stock.

I had four out of five Oregon pumps to last Summer too. They would initially work but after 30 minutes they were failing.

Can you syphon gas out of the line, from the tank, at the fuel inlet to the pump? Could the pickup tube be sucking air?
