Hi all
I was riding home last night, cruising at 85 - 90 mph when she coughed and spluttered to a standstill. I checked the fuses, all OK, still no joy then I wiggled the connectors going to the fuel pump and tried turning her over again and da da, she spluttered into life and I continued for another 59 miles no probs at all. The question is....is this a known issue with older high milage pans or just one of those things which hopefully will be OK now. I removed the connectors and blasted the whole lot with switch cleaner and a nylon toothbrush, and put new connectors on, while I was at it I sprayed out the fuse boxes as well.
Ta in advance
