Posted October 13 Right. As you May have seen I have an ultra low mileage bike that’s sat for a while. fuel pump is dead.....(check power direct and properly full of crud). BUT......checking power ok the harness lead to I have worked out in the 3 pin connector should be(please correct me if I am wrong) green - earth brown - pump brown and black line - fuel light. I am not getting power out of the pin to the pump but just the fuel light I think. I swapped the 2 relays over with no difference. is there something I am missing? Cheers Share this post Link to post
Posted October 13 just check the fuse and made sure you are getting good connection on socket sleeve , may be worth checking back of socket for any wiring issues .not sure about wires to where . Share this post Link to post
Posted October 14 I made up my own issue!!! Just realised it will only get voltage when priming or cranking....just a dead pump! (and of course a super grotty tank!) Note to self - problem are much harder after 12 hours at a PC working!!! Share this post Link to post
Posted October 15 (edited) Hi Matt welcome to the forum , Great having a bike with such low milage but a bike that has been stood for a long time will have a few issues , I would go through all the fluids and change them Including a few oil changes , I would wip the plugs out and give it a good turn over with some light oil down the bores before you fire her up , and as for the pump best thing to do is remove the tank and remove the pump then check the conections to the pump , If it has been standing for a long time the Pump could be seized or rusted up , if you need a new pump Wemoto sell them but not sure of the quality , I have changed a few in cars over the years and I'll bet there is a car one that can be used , just needs to be paired up as the Honda prices require a mortgage for one ! All the Best John Edited October 15 by x11r spelling Share this post Link to post
Posted October 18 Good Advice. I was planning to check the plugs so I will pop some oil down and turn over. All the fluids will get a change for sure. It has been started up every so often upto about 12 months ago so not fully sat atleast. I got a price of £532 for a new Honda pump....managed to strip it down and free the spindle so the pump now works. Tank was rather rusty so awaiting some stuff to arrive to sort that. I plan to get it warm and started and see if getting warm sorts the stuck clutch before doing the first fluid changed. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 18 It's a wet clutch so an oil change may free it. Good luck. Share this post Link to post
