Damn, well looks like I get to put it back together and wait on the R/R to ship in. At least I got to fix my exhaust plates! And the R/R is located near the right passenger foot peg correct?

So I have an 88 Vmax that has been overheating for a little bit now and I am pretty sure it is the thermostat (which I'm in the process of changing right now). When I take it out for a spin within 5 minutes of it running and driving (never going over 55 MPH nor sitting at stop lights) it will go...

Link to my pump That's the one I ordered. Came DOA, haven't gotten around to getting another one.

More like hexachecked it. http://imgur.com/a/fDgtp Here's the link to what the inside of it looks like AKA both diaphragms in there.

Yup. Already bought one of those and the one I ordered was DOA. And on the bowls, they have been dry. I am not getting any vacuum from my fuel line. Part of my hose near the tip of the fuel pump is expanded outwards so I think that might be part of the problem. Also my fuel pump never vibrated...

So I've been trying to fix my '88 Vmax for the last month and still can't fix this issue with the fuel pump. It started out when I took a small fall at ~10 MPH and it seemed to move around the diaphragms in the pump which led to a loud clicking sound from the pump. So I then took apart the pump...

How do I go about doing that?

I actually already bought that one but even when I put that one in it still didn't click or work. I'm 99% sure it is my relay now.

Could it be related to the relay? Or is there no way to tell?

So I have been having issues with my 88 Vmax's fuel pump where before it would cut out when I gave it any throttle and now it doesn't even turn over. I have tried a different fuel pump to the same results AKA not running. It appears to me I am missing both of my little rubber diaphragms inside...

Welp. I did just that. Took it out for a spin for about an hour and it died on me. I was having issues with it when it gets a little bit hotter than usual (right below the dot for the fan to come on) my throttle would bog down and shut off the bike. Then I couldn't get it started and the battery...

It's actually not my video just one I stumbled upon when I searched up faulty vmax fuel pump. The sound only occurs for about 3 seconds and then shuts off even with the key still on. Looks like this is going to be my little weekend project haha. Thanks for all your help!

How hard would it be to check these? I know a little bit about motorcycle engine work but if it involves me completely tearing apart the upper half of the motor then I think I'll leave it to the mech :P EDIT: This is the exact sound it is making, thanks for letting me know about the...

So I have an '88 Vmax with 61.8k miles on it and about a month ago I dropped the bike going about 10 MPH on a turn (thanks sand lol) and ever since then when the bike hasn't been turned over in more than a day then when I put the key in the ON position and the killswitch to run then when it does...
