Howdy. I am wondering if the fuel pump is working properly should you hear the fuel pump kick in? I believe that mine has gone south. But before I make the investment on a new one I am wondering if you all have any suggestions on trouble shooting to verify.

Thank you.

Hello,

When you turn the key (not to start) but to the power on.. do you hear the fuel pump power up?

I've never ever heard the fuel pump in my Sporty in the 6 years I've had her. I wouldn't be going out and buying a new pump just because you can or can not hear it! I would think you would see a preformance issue if your pump wasn't working right.

Try the GSW site, it's a Free online workshop manual! Global Service Way
