I'll restart this thread here because I'm chasing info on why it doesnt go..
I have a 1994 K1100LT sidecar. I got it as a non-runner. Yesterday I drove down and picked it up, a 1100km round trip. Pissed down with rain all the way down and all the way back but thats by the way.
The previous owned said it got progressively harder to start over a couple of months, then wouldnt go at all. He tells me he replaced the fuel pump and filter and some hoses, then gave up. Old pump, filter and other bits are in the top box so I believe him.
About all I noted this morning is that the fuel pump isnt running and is obviously the reason it doesnt go. Now I'm looking for reasons the fuel pump doesnt work. I expect there are some cutouts to check - neutral, clutch, sidestand etc. Tank connector. Fuses. Any other suggestions?
