INSPECTING
1. Inspect the fuel screen and blow clean with low
pressure compressed air.
2. Move the float lever and check for free movement.
The float assembly should return to the lower posi-
tion without force. If not, replace the fuel pump
assembly.
3. Test the fuel level sensor by connecting a multime-
ter (A) to the fuel level sensor leads (B); then
select OHMS. The multimeter should show 5
ohms at full fuel position (C) and 95 ohms at
empty fuel position (D).

NOTE: If readings are erratic, clean the resistor
wiper and resistor with clean alcohol and retest. If
still not correct, replace the fuel level sensor.
4. To replace the fuel level sensor, use the following
procedure.
A. Disconnect the two-wire connector (A); then
press the fuel level sensor toward the top of the
fuel pump to release it from the mounting slot
(B).

B. Engage the tabs (C) of the fuel level sensor into
the mounting slot (B) and press toward the bot-
tom of the fuel pump to latch in place; then con-
nect the two-wire connector (A).
INSTALLING
1. Mark the new fuel pump with a reference mark in
the same location as the removed pump; then place
the new gasket on the pump.
2. Remove the material covering the fuel pump open-
ing; then carefully guide the fuel pump into posi-
tion taking care not to damage the float or float
lever.

3. Rotate the fuel pump until the match marks align;
then install the mounting screws and tighten
securely using a crisscross pattern.
NOTE: It is important to install the fuel pump with
the correct orientation to ensure adequate float
lever clearance.
4. Connect the wires, fuel hose, and spring clamp;
then turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
Note that the fuel pump runs momentarily and the
fuel gauge indicates the proper fuel level.
5. With the transmission in neutral and brake lever
lock engaged, start the engine and check for nor-
mal operation. Check for any fuel leaks.
6. Install any wire ties that were removed; then
install the rear fenders, rack, and seat making sure
the seat locks securely.
AT THIS POINT
If the pump has failed earlier test and must be
replaced, proceed to INSTALLING.
