Hey bud just wondering if this sloved your issue does she run now? Was it fouling. Out your plugs? Im tryn to see if i take one on as project its the exact sanw bike ... what might these go for on a private party.. thx brother
Yup my fuel pressure was almost non existent. You should try test yours first instead of throwing parts at it. I did replace spark plugs to be safe too they are inexpensive. Idk about value, I'd try come in low just in case it has other issues!
fuck yeah I needed this video mine has 0 psi at that port and new fuel injectors cause they were clogged so swaped em now still no fuel so I bought a fuel gage and yep has 0 psi so after this video I'm gonna Attempt this fuel pump it sat for 3 years
@jonathanbohner yes sir will do the part will be here Friday so we'll see I'm new to this I ride my Honda cbr600rr but wanted a Kool looking harley at the same time so I got 05 victory and man it turns heads
@@jonathanbohner ya screw that. I've got an 8 Ball that is struggling to stay on when I start to close the choke. I'm figuring fuel pressure, dirty carb, or just flat out needs a tune. It came from Colorado to Washington state. So pretty substantial elevation change. I came across your video and just straight up appreciate the clarity and straight to the point information versus what I typically see when digging for UA-cam info.
@@SeriesOfTunnels what year is yours? Your talking about the lever on the left handlebar? That just holds open the throttle! I took the slack out on mine and I can maintain 62mph on the highway when I pull that lever back lol. Try running some non oxy 91 premium with good injector cleaner first! Mine would barely idle and would not rev at all.
@@jonathanbohner yep! This one is an '06 and carbureted unfortunately so no injectors to deal with. That little lever is the choke on these 8 Balls, some injected bikes have em interestingly enough. I've seen em quite often on the sport bikes that I work on regularly. Regulates the air flow for cold starts and other conditions that mess with the air fuel ratio.
@@SeriesOfTunnels I do miss my carb though! This 8 ball is almost harder to start than my 06 vtx 1300 was. Hope you get it sorted, can't wait for summer!
Ive done what you have said & sill have the same issue as soon I start it it turns of within 2 to 3 seconds what would it be besides what has been done?

Great info! Thanks!
You bet! Polaris dealer said $600 something for a new pump assembly. No way!
