Woods-Rider Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago I have a 2015 4RT that I bought used in 2020. I've never had an issue with this bike, but it recently sat in my garage for about 6 months without being ran. It ran fine when last put away. I replaced the fuel with fresh non-ethanol fuel and tried to start it with no luck. It will start and run when spraying starting fluid down the air boot, so to me that points to a fuel issue. I unplugged the fuel pump connector from the bottom of the tank and connected 12v to it. Nothing happened. No pump sounds. No fuel out the disconnected fuel line. Is there something that would cause the fuel pump not to pump when directly connected to 12v power, other than a completely dead pump? I haven't pulled the pump out of the tank yet to inspect, but find it odd for a pump to fail while sitting in a temperature controlled garage for 6 months.

Woods-Rider Posted 19 minutes ago Author Report Share Posted 19 minutes ago I've now pulled the pump completely out of the assembly and connected 12v directly to the terminals on the pump. No noise, no pumping, nothing. I've never had a fuel pump fail like this before. Usually they get weak and can't pump the required volume or pressure, or there's a physical crack or something on it. This one looks almost brand new and is acting completely dead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woods-Rider Posted 15 minutes ago Author Report Share Posted 15 minutes ago Looking for a new fuel pump. The OEM one is super expensive, around $600 for part number 16700-NN4-J10 Found this one on ebay that looks like it should fit. Anyone know if it would work? https://www.ebay.com/itm/174253542570 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
