Harley Sportster fuel pump and filter.

[@hollywaller1265]

This video really makes me feel better about working on my bike on the kitchen floor, maybe one day I'll have a garage even as 10th as nice as you do now. For now though, it's back to being a floor troll.

Blimey this was pretty much my first video ever! Filmed on a really cheap action cam designed for mountain biking before the GoPro was even invented LOL! and yeah, I guess 3yrs practice adds up...
Once the Bandit is back on the road shortly I'll be back into some Harley mods on Penny's Sportster, not to mention a little makeover for it over the winter months...! Cheers Del

What a difference 2 yrs has made in the quality of your vids still like the old ones about the harleys

[@bklyn_line]

Thank you also from Brooklyn, NY...very funny remark about the volume lost in petrol vs. the size of the assembly...it is huge! Cheers mate!

[@moorshound3243]

I really don't know why they changed to all this modern guff, I am starting to think I f**ked up buying an injected 883. Oh well we live & learn.

[@Moonfleet41]

Ha ha, like the analogy, Thanks for taking the time to look through buddy....i appreciate the support...cheers, Del.

[@Moonfleet41]

Hi mate.. YES, there is an Orange rubber "O" ring gasket, they are usualy reusable if you are careful taking the pump out of the old tank.. if not, and you need a new one, then im sure they are not pricey... but make sure you fit it ,as its a pressure seal (remember the tank gets pressurised in hot weather and it WILL leak fuel if its not 100% perfect.talk to Harley and price one up mate.you'll see its easy to fit and slots into a groove on the pump base plate..just grease it when you fit it Del

[@Moonfleet41]

Hi mate, no just change the filter, the rest is fine... I would definitely take the tank off and flip it over... you can get the pump assembly clear while its mounted on the bike, and even a cup of fuel will pour everywhere...take your tome and you'll see its really easy.. good luck, Del.

@papascycles Not a single mark, if you watch it again, at 0:11 i posted a caption that i put a cloth on the floor to protect the paint, and at 0:16 and thoughout....YOU CAN SEE IT..!

[@maikelpolini]

Thank you from Spain!!

[@Vanrocco66]

Just went back to watch one of your first videos. ... My how things have changed huh??

[@Moonfleet41]

Onward, ever onward buddy...!

[@27craigbrown]

Del, I'm changing my 48's tank to a 3.3 gallon tank from an 883. When im fitting the fuel pump to the new tank is there a gasket on the pump to stop leaks? Concerned might leak when fitted to the bike and be a fire hazard lol! Any advice or guidance would be appreciated. Loving all the recent vids mate.
Cheers.

[@abhijeetgyal]

actually loved the song!!

[@Moonfleet41]

Great song aye.. thanks for watching..

[@Moonfleet41]

Funniest remark was from a buddy on a forum here.. "Looks like a Taliban Device".!!! priceless.

[@bearly9953]

Del I am about to change the tank on my 2011 sportster due to a small dent in the old one and in your video you mention that the bolts are glued in with a fuel sealant, do I need to re glue them into the new tank ? If so what type of "fuel sealant? You also say that we should grease the orange rubber o ring on the bottom, What type of grease should we use? I love your videos by the way.

[@Moonfleet41]

Ok buddy, regular ordinary LM grease will be fine for lubing the seal, and you can Loctite the bolts with blue Loctite as the factory stuff is quite hard to get... makes sure you use the correct size torx bit for the bolts as they are easy to chew out and damage... good luck with it buddy, hope it goes well for you, Del

[@Sportybob]

Hay buddy can you make an upgrade video about this in your new shop

[@Moonfleet41]

You're welcome dude.

[@CMore_]

What size torx you use? Moonfleet41

[@lylewinney7656]

just changed mine out on a sportster xl custom 2013 .and now it won't turn on...any suggestions

[@Moonfleet41]

Lyle Winney What do you mean by 'turn on' Lyle???? You mean you have no ignition, or you have ignition and it's not turning over... little more info. might help... if you don't plug everything in correctly, then it kills the ignition!

[@lylewinney7656]

Thanks for the response, I found the problem, i had a bad switch... Thanks

[@TheTerp84alum]

Great video. Why on earth would anyone give a thumbs down? Idiots, I guess.

[@Moonfleet41]

TheTerp84alum Guess so buddy... early video and pretty crap production I guess!

[@joearnette2781]

Because the entire video is of him unscrewing bolts.

[@steher]

The song! Just about the most boring song ever put out. Its interesting to see the fuel pump though. I had to turn the volume down to 0. Thumbs up!
