Thank you for your question regarding your Road King. My name is ***** ***** I would be happy to help. Honestly that sounds symptomatic of a failing or faulty pump. When you replaced it was it an OEM or aftermarket replacement and new or used?
Customer
Aftermarket market. I Did a pressure test the other night with the bike running I'm getting 45 pounds
Customer
It wasn't running right to me so I put a new fuel pump in it and now it is actually Worse
Customer
I was assuming it was a coincidence
the warming up and dying is what indicates to me a failing fuel pump as they tend to do that when bad and run ok when cold. I would also check your injectors and make sure fuel is getting through here but do some more testing with the pump, especially since it’s aftermarket. We see a lot of issues with aftermarket pumps. If the pump doesn’t seem to be the culprit then you likely have a bad sensor. Which sensor would be hard to determine without diagnostics software testing and it would likely be cheaper to have a shop hook it up real quick to run sensor tests as opposed to throwing parts at it. The software will map out all of your sensors and perform tests to let you know of any issues. Also check for codes if you haven’t and this can clue you in as well.
