pump

I realize the fuel pump fills the carbs after the bike has sat but where does the gas go that it is replacing ? Evaporate ? Or does it go to the engine and end up in the oil ? Thanx for your help .

Does your fuel pump click for about 5 seconds EVERY time you turn the bike on? If the bowls are full, you should not hear the pump at all. There are multiple possible causes of this problem, but I wanted to post a solution that seems to be fairly common. I got some great advice when I asked...

There is a small hole on the bottom of the water pump that has coolant spilling out it. Any ideas? Is this hole perhaps supposed to be plugged? :ummm:

Hello So I've posted on this problem in some different treads and I thought I had it figured out, but I have one more question. EVERY time I switch the bike on the fuel pump clicks for at least 5 seconds. I can turn it on, let the fuel pump run, turn it off and immediately turn it on again...

Does anybody know the torque for the water pump cover (five) bolts)? i came home and had a flood of coolant all over the garage floor and it looks like its coming from the lower bolt on the case cover. It ruined the paint on the floor, thats some nasty stuff. I removed the cover, rest of...

does anyone know if there is a high flow oil pump available foe the vmax.:ummm:

Tried a search.... Looking to find out if anyone knows what is acceptable for the gears driving the oil pump as far as the freeplay on the shaft is concerned. The teeth are wearing perfectly, but when you rotate the gears on the shafts, they have excessive play on the shaft(s). 3 total. Is this...

I was running bike (95 1200) working on getting carbs tuned, got agravated and covered it up. went back 2 days latter and noticed pump not priming for the few seconds when key is turned on. checked wireing and so on and found pump was dead. I tryed something little nuts but, I had a new Mr...

Hi all :) I have some problems with my VMax after winter. Engine doesn't want to run neither on choke nor without it. I suspect fuel pump. Why? Well, usually when I was turning on ignition there was this ''ticking'' sound coming from pump when filling the carbs with petrol. Now when I turn...

Anyone got a fuel pump relay they are willing to sell??? Mine shit the bed Cheers

For whatever reason my water pump started leaking from the weep hole. So I replaced the complete assembly with a new one from Bikebandit,com. Here's the issue I get everything put back together, start her up and while checking for leaks I see theat my oil is contaminated (milky):bang head:, I...

Hello all, Just got a few questions for the fellow maxxers. First, is are there any suggestions for fuel pump mod(aftermarket), and how much pressure is actually needed? Lastly, what carb sync tool is needed for no vboost carb system Chris was telling me but I was zoned, at the track sorry...

So I have this vibration noise around 3000 rpm's when accellerating and between 3000 and 2500 when decellerating. I traced it down to what I think it may be. The water pump cover. In the picture, something seems to have happened to 16, 15, and 14, because number 17 is loose on one side of it...

If i put my finger over the inlet tube of the fuel pump should it have enough suction to pull my finger against?It clicks and hums but i feel no suction

G?day fellow maxers (first post), The other day my fuel pump started making the priming sound after kicking over the engine. You know the sucking sound the fuel pump makes when you turn the ignition? Well that ticking noise normally stops when you hit the starter and now the bloody thing sounds...

Does anyone know the flow rate and working pressure of the stock unit?

I noticed the other day that my fuel pump kept pumping. Sometimes it does sometimes it does'nt pump for awhile. What tells it the system is pressurized? the float and needle only? I'm chasing an intermitent bad running scenario and I'm trying to narrow it down. The v-boost controller was part of...

Does anybody know where I can buy a clear water pump cover in a gloss black finish? Europe and Python Motorsports aside that is. The shipping and exchange rate are too brutal from Europe and I've been trying to get one from Python for six months but they've been out of stock. I wanted to have...

On a ride home my engine startes sounding like a vtwin and i could hear the relay clicking on a very regular rythmic pattern very consistent with the engine. also saw white exhaust on the left stock muffler and a horrific gas smell. I let her sit for a couple days but i just tested and the...
