So I put a new fuel pump on my bike, and for the first day it ran perfect better than new then today at around 20-25mph it started to hesitate like it was starving on fuel pulled over noticed the fuel filter was lower than usual also noticed that the pressure from the pump seemed to be pushing out around the line leading to the carb but no gas seemed to be going into the line like it was blocked or clogged but there is no blockage and it's not clogged? If I unhook the line from the filter it squirts has out but I'm not sure it's doing it more than with the filter there. I also bypassed the filter and had the same issues help!!!!

Note that the links where use only because im too lazy to upload the photobucket and post the pictures here. There is a way to post pics without uploading them. You right click and click "view image" and you shoul;d get a url in the address bar that starts with www and ends with .jpg. If you copy that address and paste it between bracketed img and /img and the picture will appear. Its called stealing bandwidth and it's frowned upon but I do it sometimes. The pic below was done that way. click quote and you will see it.

Water in the carb can do that. So can carburetor icing.

wynnes dry fuel will stop that, absorbs water in the fuel system, will enable contaminated fuel to burn, will also stop carb icing and prevent rusting in the tank.

That fuel additive is more alcohol. Just burn whatever contaminated fuel you have quick or it will evaporate and draw in more water. It does very little for carb icing. It is not a high enough concentration to change the freezing point of water in the air. It will not prevent tank rusting either. Advertisers make all kinds of 'claims' like snake oil salesmen.
