fuel

I've got a pair of good condition FJ1200 pumps that would be much easier to fit to the custom tank (one fitted, one spare obviously). Question.....Do you think these will flow as much as the stock max pump ???

I found a fuel leak, and after cleaning things up tracked it down to the fuel level sensor. Interestingly, it's something the Haynes manual includes checking for every 4000 miles. Tried tweaking the screws tighter, which slowed the leak a little (already very slow) but a little paranoid about...

Hello all, Yesterday while riding, my 90 max died on the side of the road. Died like it was out of gas. Wouldn't restart, and when I turned the ignition on, there is a loud ticking, seems to be on the right side of the air box. Is this going to be a problem with the fuel pump, or the...

Hi, I just rebuilt my carbs and when i put it back fuel was pouring out. So i removed the airbox to see where fuel was coming from and it's pouring out the air jets. I tried to cover them with the fingers, the it came out of the tubes that go to the airbox... When i rebuild the carbs i...

I was riding a few days ago and my bike started to have problems . As I gave her throttle she'd stumble and sputter. It was at that point I switched over the reserve switch and she picked up for a while than she'd stumble again. :ummm: If I keep switching back to regular tank and then to...

After sitting all winter, my 86 Max when I turn the key on will not stop priming. The fuel pump just keeps on ticking away even despite the fact that fuel is pouring down the side of my bike. Does anyone have any ideas on this? Thanks!

hello all, first time posting here, iv had my 89 for 20 years now, bought with 4 miles on it. the reason i am writing is for a friend. he has a 85 that has some issues. from what i understand the fuel pump is thinking the system is pressurized all the time, thus never running except when the...

Looking for the plastic housing (black plastic part) that attaches to the pump motor. If you have a broken fuel pump that doesn't have any cracks email me with a price. Thanks

Quick question can't seem to locate answer figure I'd ask when reading level in tube do you read te bottom most part or the top of the concave line Gonna do this sideways for use of characters 17mm >) Or 17mm )< Turn both those 90? clockwise to understand (<) refers to reading above or below...

Well I have been trying to troubleshoot my bike for months now. Most of the time it only wants to idle on 2 cylinders, today it actually idled on all four. I believe the problem now may be an issue with the carburetors. Every time I cycle the key the fuel pump for 3-4 seconds which is a lot...

So I am lost. Hope someone has some ideas. Here is what I have done and what is going on. Started about a year ago when the fuel pump was clicking every single time I turn it on. Never ever will it stop as it should. I tore the pump apart and found the diaphram out of place. I replaced it and...

I don't know where to start. Installed LED's in warning lights is the only thing different. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2

Hey guys ridi g the bike the other day and fuel cut off at 200 km. I have a Morley jet kit and exhaust and airbox. I'm thinking the fuel pump can't keep up and runs out of fuel. Any thoughts anyone?

Hi. Wondering if anybody has any experience with this fuel tank extension from Germany? http://www.v-max-f-maerz.de/vmaxkatalog/750/754c_en.html I've got an '06 VMax. Love it. Hate the cruising range. Old issue I know. I've reviewed various options, including faux tank replacements and...

So I have read up everything on this fuel pump issue. I have taken the pump off the first time to find the infamous diaphram had came out of its little cavity. I replaced it and reinstalled the pump. Seemed like it did help for a couple of cycles of the ingnition. It actually built pressure and...

got my 1988 vmax out of winter storage a few weeks ago and it fired rite up like she always dose I have only had time to take it out once and when I did the gas light came on and started to sputter so I hit the reserve and went to get gas and it was only low a gallon witch i thought was odd...

Hi folks: Hope all of you are doing okay. Here's a question: I'm looking for the THINNEST (or most narrow) in-line fuel filter available. Can any of you point me in the right direction? Thanks muchly! Elimax

Well it started about a month ago bike started missing to the point of shutting off After it sat for a few min it started and made it back home so I cleaned out fuel line and pump with air ran great till this morning it happened again I pulled over and cycled fuel pump a few times till it...

Hey Ya'll, Pretty new to this so bare with me. I've had these carbs off probably 5 times now. I've replaced o-rings accelerator pumps. Ultra sonic cleaned them. Replaced the pilot jets. Thought I had it all right. Good idle. Road it around the block. Fired it up after a few hours and it was...
