Possible fuel pump issues. Need help
Bike-2009 ninja 650r. It sat for a long time as well
My cousin used seafoam in the tank to help with running issues. It did help. Now sometimes the bike dies while riding, just like it was running out of gas. It then won't start until hours later after it sits. Is there any testing I can do or should I replace the fuel pump? |

All sensors OK and properly installed? Vacuum leak in the air intake or throttle bodies that fools the flow sensor? All electrical connections firm and free of corrosion? Modifications to air filter or muffler? Aspect of each spark plug? The problem seems to be related to temperature of the engine: cold engine runs / hot engine quits.
