Hey guys I'm looking for a little help. I just undid my DD modification, put in fresh oil, buttoned everything back up and went to test it out.
She's a no start. WTF? Ugly coincidence? I get no Vboost servo, I hear no fuel pump, I get no solenoid action. I have instrument lights and...
Where is the step by step for the water pump rebuild with photos? I've searched my brains out :bang head: and can't find it. I'm trying to get all my info together for this winter's downtime. I thought this rebuild would have been made a "sticky". so far have the shift segment info together and...
hi does anyone know a reasonable replacement for these items I think the relay has died and the pump definitely has to lol also does anyone know how much difference in the relays there are as I've been offered a few but with different markings on
I know there are many threads related to this subject as I spent days reading them. I decided to start a new thread as I want to get some feedback specific to this situation.
So I recently performed Shotgun, changed clip on needles from 2nd groove to 3rd groove. I also changed spark plugs and...
Hey I reversed the polarity by accident when I was bench testing my fuel pump. I saw a small puff of smoke from the electrical plug and not it doesn't work at all.
Am I totally screwed or is it fixable?
so im ut riding yesterday, its 92 and humid here. Lots of stop and go traffic, ran several errands where the bike was off for a few minutes at a time, but the fan came on a couple times. Last time i started it, the fuel pump ran like crazy. Got home, turned the key on and off a few times, pump...
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...
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
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...
I did a search and a lot of reading and I'm about at my wits end. Here's the situation: I have very little IF any movement on my temperature gauge. Here's what I have done so far as far as trouble shooting. 1) Replaced the thermostat. 2) Replaced part of the grounding wire and reconnected it to...
So I feel like my bike runs hot. The coolant is a year or two old and I am going to change that but I have two other questions.
1. Is there a good system flush and if so has anyone had luck or is it a waste?
2. I know on boat motors the impeller will slowly go bad and pump less water. Would...
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...
Any body know any trick to get cooling pump housing off. Without destroying it. Mine seem to be bonded on. My manual just say it held on by the gasket & 2 dowels

recently my max has developeda new bug- after long rides on the interstate i pull on tge clutch lever and its like nothings there. i have to pump it about 5 quick times to get it to fully engage, the clutch grabbing a little more with each pump. this continues until i park it and after a while...
Been having some trouble with my 2006 vmax. Well started trying to figure if the carbs need going through which would have been a suprise considering that after the shotgun and sync. it was running better than ever. I found that I was getting no fuel to the back left carb because I couldn't get...
Hi,
Recently I bought a V-max that was standing a long time. I replaced the battery, oil, filters, made complete basic maintenance. I am now having a problem that I believe is the fuel pump, please see the following video:

I was cleaning my engine block when I came across this pin hole that resides in the dowel hole of the water pump mounting surface. I tried to blow it with air but it seems blocked, I also tried to see where it leads and I could not figure it out.
Vmaxers and Vmax gurus any idea? :worthy:
