Howdy . Hoping someone had a similar problem and can steer me in the right direction
I have a 2004 Kingpin with 14000 miles . I rode my bike out to work when I came back 9 hrs later it will not start. It will turn over but no fire . so I spray some starting fuel and it fire and ran for a sec. I check the fuses and they are fine. I can hear the fuel pump prime when i turn it on. I didn't check the spark plugs because they are new and besides the bike fires when i spray starting fuel. The battery is new and also I had it recharge. Please help
Sounds fuel related to me. Since it will fire on the starting fluid. Does the fuel pump sound like it's building pressure. I had some o rings in the tank on the fuel pressure regulator go bad on a 03. Fuel pump would run but didn't build pressure. Unfortunately you'll have to pull the tank and pump to replace them. If you can go to a Auto zone borrow a fuel pressure test guage and check pressure. It needs to be 50 psi
Look up The Vic Shop on Youtube. They have a video on how to pressure test your fuel pump. I had a very similar situation with my KP and they rebuilt the pump. That was probably 5-6 years ago, been fine ever since.
thank you all for the advice . Got the bike back home . check the pressure there was none and I pull the tank and pump out . Turn out it was a defective after maket pump that was install by the previous owner. There was a crack in the plastic part of the pump. I place an order for a new pump once I get I will post update.
Thank a mill
The pump is made by walbro . I pick it up at highflowfuel.com. I was going to get it rebuild by ryan but after i pull the pump from of the tank , I saw that it was not the original one so at some point the previous owner did change it.
