    I reported yesterday that my 08 TE-510 was stalling during decel after I installed the PU kit. Looked at a few things and decided to pull the fuel pump and found the zip tie not to be holding the pump in place. I will go with the length wise zip tie solution.

    However noticed they orange wire comeing from the inernal harnes not securred to anything on the other end. Looks like it should be solderd to what looks like a resistor.

    Any one know where the orange fuel pump wire connects to or has a good picture of it?



    Thanks

    Geez not sure could it be for the fuel level indicator?

    Which the TE does not have.

    If it's the wire circled in Red, it does go to the low fuel level sensor.

    A few folks have reported broken wires on the fuel pump assembly and have had success reconnecting them. Search "fuel pump" or "low fuel light" or similar.

    Hope this helps!

    I see you broke the red fitting. George at UP_TITE racing has a fix for it. Call him and send him the hole think. He will fix.

    Actually, I grabbed the pic from another rider's post. I'm paranoid as hell every time I take the tank off that I'll slip. Good to know there's a solution in case I do have an oopsie.

    Is it a solution / part he can ship to Australia as I have just broken mine in the start of my racing season. Over here the dealers are stating you can't buy the plastic elbow separately and have to buy the whole pump at $1200 Australian. I am hoping to be able to get the elbow from motoxotica if I can't get it from R&D Huskie. The support from the local dealers are sheeit(I'm not friggen happy):thumbsdown:

    I've read the mod you can do and have the metal 3/8 elbow but when the guy that was going to tap the thread measured the internal diameter he reckons there is only 1mm each side and good chance of cracking. So if he stuffs it, tuff luck for me.

    Am I correct in saying you can still buy these elbows in the states, I have to wait until 7.00 am Australian time to call the states tomorrow, just don’t want to get my hope up until then.

    Sorry quite a few questions amongst the rant.
