pattern one i got of z power has been ok. just don't take the bowl off unless you have a hour or so to put it back together (seal had grown and was a bugger to get back together)
other than that its been fine

Steve, just been through the same dilemma with mine.
Proper vacuum replacement was c£75 and a Pingel about £90 - £100.
But bought a Z650 single outlet for about £45
has the same 2 bolt hole centres.
Looks better than the massive vacuum tap and cheaper to
