    Help - CRF250L - Not starting

    by dagamed » Fri Mar 11, 2022 6:36 pm

    New to the forum - Thank you in advance for any help/suggestions.
    2014 CRF250L- I've had it in storage for over a year. It had a full tank of gas with fuel stabilizer but apparently that was useless.
    I've been trying to started without any luck. Here are the things that I've tried already.

    - Drained fuel tank and filled it up with 93oct.
    - Motor turns - check for spark - weak -
    - removed fuel injector and cranked it over to see if fuel was being sent to injector (no)
    - put injector back in place -
    - disconnected fuel line front injector - crank it over - no fuel coming out of hose
    - removed fuel pump from fuel tank. disassembled fuel pump - used 12V battery to see if fuel pump module would run (or at least make some noise) - no luck.

    The fuel pump battery connection check is sort of a guess, I don't know if 12V is enough specially not knowing the AMPs it takes for the pump to work. I'm guessing not high amp since its submerge in gasoline.

    Has anyone here worked on getting a fuel pump to work with a battery connection?
    Is there an after market fuel pump - I really like to avoid buying the entire fuel assembly part (OEM) just for a possible pump.https://partsfinder.onlinemicrofiche.co ... UEL%20TANK

    I'm avoiding the common thing to pour gas down the sparkplug with my luck. The engine will hydrolock or throw a rod... Can't use started fluid in the carb (its fuel injected)

    Any suggestions or if there is anything else that I can check.

    Half a teaspoon full down the plug hole should at least get it to pop.
