Well damn.....hopeing for a remedy to the pump noise....

[@everydayirace]

Me too.

[@yardman0132]

Ya mine sounds like that as well

[@aaronkoch2220]

Is there air bubbles in the reservoir? If so you maybe sucking air in and need to apply 10psi pressure and look for seaping at conections

[@DG-od4si]

the noise is coming from bubbles in the fluid

[@KJ4rd]

Do you plan to work on your zx10 again?

[@everydayirace]

I don't own a zx10, you must have me confused with someone else.

[@KJ4rd]

@@everydayirace the turbo one on your channel from 3 years ago?

[@everydayirace]

@@KJ4rd oh, that one isn't a zx10, it's a zx10r, 2 completely different bikes, I no longer post videos about it because there was very little interest from the viewers unfortunately.

I have a manual 97’ 2.3l ranger that takes a long time to start, it cranks and bogs down to fight compression and will fire, sometimes it’s will fire but won’t stay running others it’ll run, no check engine light 95k miles, any help would be appreciated.

[@everydayirace]

First thing I'd do compression test, first dry and then wet to make sure engine is in good mechanical condition. Then I use torque app and look at the reading of crank/cam position sensor while cranking the engine.

[@yardman0132]

I don’t have a compression tester but I did replace the timing belt at 94k miles triple checked all marks and manually rotated multiple times to ensure marks stayed aligned but I didn’t notice any changes

[@everydayirace]

@@yardman0132 did you have the same problem before you changed timing belt?

[@yardman0132]

Yes exactly the same with nothing getting worse or better, the original belt was only a little stretched vs the new belt
