I have a 85 vmax and it has been sitting for 2 years. i pulled off the carbs and cleaned them and then i noticed alot of water in the fuel tank. i removed that and then when i turned the key on to see if the fuel pump was working it spit out water and rust. i kept turning off and on until the pump ran clear. ok hear comes the interesting part. i put the bike back together and it ran pretty good. after a short while it was cutting out while riding. then the bike became harder to start. now when i try to start the bike the fuel pump doesnt even start. i checked the voltage coming to the starter and it is about 10v. when i hook the pump directly to the battery it runs fine. could the pump be bad?
