pump

Does anyone know where to purchase a (NEW) fuel pump relay for a 2000 Vmax? I see used ones only and can't locate a NEW 6 pin G8D-04Y OMRON Relay. I got stuck on the side of the road till I jumped the fuel pump enough to get me home. Dealer says they have 4 pin but I need 6 pin. Thanks

For the last 5 years my clutch lever has had a problem. It gets soft feeling and doesn't want to pump up. I rebuilt the master cylinder a couple times but the last time it didn't help. figured the master was just worn out so bought a new master cylinder. Installed it and it's the same way. I...

Riding the 89 max to work & she shuts off. Just filled up so i know i have plenty of fuel. Turn the key off then back on & i hear the fuel pump clicking like mad for 5-10 seconds. Normally i hear it for about 1 sec when i turn the key on. Pull the pump & it is pretty rough(original 89 pump). I...

OK, kinda suspected so. I bought one of those $60 aftermarket fuel pumps, and I dismanteled the old burnt pump to use the original end plate with tubes in the right direction, and the original mount with studs. Good news is that all the parts easily interchange, for a new factory like pump on...

Hello all. New to this forum but not to the endless joys of riding motorcycles. Need some help from forum members. I am looking at buying a 2005 vmax but has a oil leak. It is the right side gasket for the water pump along with the 3 o rings. He said the shop can do the fix for $300 bucks. The...

I discovered that the plastic center piece on my fuel pump is cracked and leaking. I temporarily repaired it with some special rubberized tape, but the pump must be replaced. Will any of these work as a replacement? I'm trying to save money. Not sure what PSI is required. This was my first...

Greetings all, I have an original '85 Max with 10K miles on it, PO let it sit for 19 years. Have fully (almost) resurrected it with new manifold seals, carb kits and boots, vacuum diaphragms, fuel lines, OEM spec tires, SS brake and clutch lines, etc, etc, etc. Nagging issue arose shortly after...

Last year, after many years of trouble-free operation, my fuel pump started the continuous clicking when the key was turned on. I found the fix here on the forum (What to do when your fuel pump clicks like a SOB) and tried it. The first time I did it, it worked for several months, then started...

Hi guys I'm in the process of a complete rebuild on my 85 and noticed the gear that is on the drive for the oil pump will turn. On the shaft.this is the shaft that runs from the clutch basket and the gear that turns on the shaft is the one that drives the oil pump gear is this normal? Thanks

Powered up my barnfind Vmax yesterday. Since it hasn't run in 4 years, I decided to spray some oil down the intakes and spin the motor up some, without plugs, to limber it up some before installing my freshly rebuilt carbs. I left the plugs plugged in and hanging and grounded them with...

I just completed a rebuild of my '06 water pump. I followed the shop manual and the great photo step by step posted on this forum. I have a couple of questions for others that have completed this task. In the '01-'06 Service Manual, Water Pump Assembly section, it states gently tap the bearing...

Ok, here is my problem. I changed my gauge bulbs with LED's from superbrightled.com. All of a sudden, my fuel pump would not prime the carbs when I turned the key. I tested all of the LED's and they worked fine. I also put them in different sockets and had the same problem. I took out the fuel...

Guys, I had a problem with my Vmax (1990) and my mechanic said it could be the Fuel Pump and Fuel Pump Relay. And so we did order the parts abroad by giving the Year Model, Engine, and Chassis number of the bike. But when the parts came to my doorstep, the Fuel Pump Relay sent was different...

Is the fuel pump relay the same for all years of the V-max? Mine is an 85. I can't find it on the parts diagrams.

Hey! New to the Forum; hoping for some good feedback. Sorry but I'd accidentally posted this in the wrong place yesterday. Rookie mistake!!! I have an '85 VMax that's been rebuilt top to bottom and has worked perfect the last 3 years. This morning it left me stranded for the first time. I was...

Hey! New to the Forum; hoping for some good feedback. I have an '85 VMax that's been rebuilt top to bottom and has worked perfect the last 3 years. This morning it left me stranded for the first time. I was in a haul ass hurry because I was late for work so I'd been cruising at about 85 (faster...

Coming home from work the other night on the freeway doing about 75 m.p.h., my VMAX started to sputter in 5th gear like it would do when the low fuel light comes on when having to switch to RES. Confused, :ummm:I still switched the fuel selector to RES hoping that maybe the low fuel level light...

Just Did a water pump Rebuild On My 97.............Followed The Book, Made Sure The mechanical seal On The Impeller Side Was Even With a Straight Edge, Put It On, Put Some Coolant In It, fired It Up, Topped Off The Coolant, Made The Fan Come On, And Made Sure All Air Was Out Of The System, Went...

max died on a ride yesterday, trailered home, thought the fuel pump went out. Call me stupid, but i think i just ran out of gas, however... My fuel light just came on about a mile before it died. i also just switched to reserve at the same time the light came on. I put a gallon of gas in today...

OK, so here's a weird one. Working on an 85. When I turn the key on, the fuel pump doesn't automatically cycle. I can hit the off/on switch several times, nothing happens. Almost by accident, I "wiggled" the ignition switch and it started pumping. Now, once it starts pumping, I can toggle...
