Glad to help, thanks for watching!!

Hey Mike you are very welcome

Glad you found something that bike is a 2005 so a little older that yours. Thanks for Watching

@@TheBadgers well I'll save your video it might be the same as my 02 Fat Boy. Thanks for the info.👍

Awesome yes let us know i can be intimidating for sure

Sorry man, just trying to keep the video from being an hour long.

Thank you

Thanks I am not a technician, but I try to share things I have done to help out the diy guys

Thanks man I am glad it helped and saved you some time. Thanks for watching!!

@@TheBadgers Today , got parts removed fuel pump assy and the regulator was almost completely apart from black housing. Just bought new everything on inside! Once done its running like a champ! Does this just happen due to pressure pushing the 2 parts away from each other, Or just age. Sorry First HD. :)

@@XenoWiz it is a known weakness probably a combo of it all not to mention it’s in fuel which doesn’t help

Sorry I sped it up because it was a simple part and didn't want to make everyone wait through it. Thanks for watching and the great feedback

@@TheBadgers Ya but this is my dream bike that I bought by building three others and selling them so I could afford this one so I want it to be kept in pristine condition so my wife can sell it when I die and use the money to put me in the ground. I do not want to mess anything up on this one. So I'm going to be looking for videos to keep it up and running for as long as I can work on it myself. Stage five kidney failure so my time on two wheels is going to be really limited.

I had the same 05 fat boy silver. Sold it thought it would hold its value but I'm learning these bikes to not hold their value but I would love to buy a blue one 05 Screamin Eagle Fatboy anybody knows where I get one

Thanks for watching

Glad it helped, please subscribe if you haven't yet,it really helps out the channel

The links are in the description of the video, not sure about the sending unit though

You're welcome!

Yes Bike runs good, all you probably need is the pressure regulator and the filter, but I have also see a hole in the hose inside the tank cause the issue as well.

It should be not 100% sure I would grad a manual if it were me

Yes you can drain the tank with the crossover hose at the front of the bike. Have you checked the fuel pressure regulator housing?

You're welcome Michael!

No you will lock it in position once reinstalled

This is true, so everyone should do what they are comfortable with, of course they also recommend using a Harley trained technician at one of their dealerships.. Thanks for watching!

My dore seal liks

@@TheBadgers haha so true mate ! Good job 👍🏻

Hi Kris, honestly have no idea what your issue could be without working in it myself, I am guessing that the bike has a fuel pump relay of some sort I would start there. Thanks for watching, sorry I am not much help.

@@TheBadgers thank you for the help

That sounds like the symptoms for sure, hope you find the problem and get her fixed. Thanks for watching and subscribing.

What I found was the fuel pump strainer fell apart and half was sitting at the bottom of the tank in one piece. The rest is in tiny pieces or in my fuel filter. I managed to fish out the big piece with a coat hanger.

@@sjeverett75 did it damage the fuel pump? Guessing you changed the fuel filter?

@@TheBadgers I was going to replace the filter and the check valve hose, but my wife said she doesn't want me doing this again in a few weeks so I should just replace the fuel pump and regualtor too. I'm not gonna argue with that.

@@sjeverett75 might as well take care of it all at once. Glad you got it fixed

Could be other lines in the tank they will develop holes and create the same problem, while you are in there replace them all and the pressure regulator and housing

Doesn't surprise me maybe ebay get a used one

start with the tank, filter, regulator, and probably the pump. I would run some cleaner through the system for sure,

Wow man congrats on doing the job yourself, as far as the gauge man electronics are such finicky items , I honestly don’t know, let us know what you come up with. Thanks for watching!!

@@TheBadgers You can use a DVOM and check the ohm readings of your fuel level sending unit. Unplug your wires and use the meter to take readings when the float is down and when the float is in the up/ full position. You may have to research the ohm readings you should be getting from the sending unit in the full and empty positions.Your float may also be malfunctioning after being removed from the gas. The float may always sink to the bottom; giving you an empty reading all the time..

Update on my issue, long after the fact. I soon realized that my problem was a badly corroded delphi connector, i think theyre called. The whole thing looked like a fuzzy green penny. So basically the wiring, leading to the fuel gauge from underneath the tank. I guess me disconnecting and reconnecting it that one time caused a corroded pin to break free from its wire. I ended up having to take the connector pins apart and replacing the connector and pins. Not going to corrode on me again. I have the connector sealed off from each end now with silicone rtv, and grease. These older bikes....seems like every time I take my bike apart to fix one thing, I discover something else I need to address. I am about to replace my regulator, its housing, fuel filter, the check valve and the inside lines. My check valve o rings are kind of weepy so I'm going in there and basically replacing everything but the fuel pump, which I know was already replaced some years ago. A bit of preventative maintenance so hopefully i do not get stranded.

Do you have power to the pump? Thanks for watching be sure to hit that subscribe button it helps us out

@@TheBadgers I did at one time while moving it around and running it to keep thing's lubed up then one day (a while after) I turned the key on and had nothin I actually haven't done any trouble shooting yet but figured with the old old gas sitting in it and run riding it that the pump froze up

Links for all the products are in the description. Thanks for watching

@@TheBadgers I found the parts

@@angelfire402 awesome glad we found help

Hissing while running, after you shut it off?

@@TheBadgers hissing while running

Yes you should hear it run when you turn on the ignition.

I guess it could I know that the regulator and lines in the fuel tank can cause all kinds of issues. On mine it spit and sputtered like it was running on 1 cylinder or running out of gas. I could pull the gas cap look in the tank and turn on the key and the regulator was spraying fuel all inside my tank.

@@TheBadgers Thank you for your reply, I'll change out the fuel pump, regulator and filter. It will be awhile before I can afford to get it all but I'll let you know if it clears up my problem, thanks again

Consult your manual for those I just tightened mine down, in no certain order

According to my findings this will fit your motorcycle amzn.to/3I3gssM

The kits don't include the housing that I have seen, you have to buy it on its own. Follow the amazon link in the video and it gives you tons of options. Thanks for watching, and be sure to subscribe!

Here is the one I used amzn.to/3Gx7OlV

And the hose

You can replace each piece individually, I would replace the regulator housing and fuel filter at minimum.

Sorry it was too fast for you, maybe play it back in slow motion? If you hit the gear icon for settings you can slow it down to .25

This issue did not give me any codes.

@@TheBadgers thanks

I used aftermarket and it has worked great. I have a link in the description for what I used

I hope so let me know

@@TheBadgers yep will do 🤞

what's up man how can I help

From the tank or from the assembly

@The Badgers from the tank. It is seperate from the pump assembly.

They are all one unit, you have to push down on the float assembly, it is spring loaded and once you push it down it will let you move the assembly around to get it out of the tank easier

@The Badgers I am swapping out tanks. Bike runs fine old tank had dent. Replacing tank with a good one. Since it's all apart should I replace full pump? 2006 with about 6500 miles.

@@bprz067 Personal preference My bike is 18 years old with 145,000 miles. It still has the original pump, I would replace the fuel pressure regulator and housing, fuel filter and all the hoses

2005 cvo fatboy

Would U happen to know when they changed the fuel pump design to have it bolt to the inside of the tank?

I have taken many apart and never had any pressure to release, so you should be good to go.

@@TheBadgers Thanks Man

Pull the fuel pump fuse, then start the bike, when it stalls pressure is neutralized.

👍

Sorry I was trying to keep the video from being to long. Thanks for watching if it helped you please hit that subscribe button

If you would have used the links to the parts in my video you would of had them in a couple of days. You should always mark what came from where or have a repair manual on hand

Sped it up because it was super simple to put it back together. You are free to find a different video to help you out or just figure it out yourself. Glad you enjoyed it

I’m sorry you feel I shouldn’t get paid for my video, keep searching sure can find another one.

@@TheBadgers lol, midrolls are intrusive and suck canal water, I never let them run, I always let opening and closing adds run.

@@bikersoncall that is great and your choice for sure, you do what you want I’ll do what I want.

@@TheBadgers Bless your heart.

@@bikersoncall LOL I get it, you think that everyone should take advise from you because you are a youtube Guru?? Do you have another channel beside the one with 6 subs? Just so we are clear I could care less about you or your opinion, so just move on and find someone else that needs your wisdom.
