skydoc_17 Posted March 30, 2015 #2 Posted March 30, 2015 Hey Rip, On the left side of your Venture, just above and to the right of the big shaft that the swingarm pivots on, you will find the fuel pump and the filter. You will need to remove the passenger foot rest to get to it. I have attached a few pics. Be sure to check the positive and negative connections to make sure it is getting power when you turn on the ignition switch. This could also be a Ignition Switch issue or a fuse issue. I would take a voltmeter and check for power to the fuel pump before I would scrap the fuel pump out. If you do need a pump or ignition switch, I have one from a low mileage 87'VR here at the shop in PA. Earl
Yammer Dan Posted March 30, 2015 #3 Posted March 30, 2015 You must remove left side plastic that is under your leg as you are sitting on bike. Pump is about center of this behind vent and pretty easy to find. Check wiring and fuel filter.
Jayceesfolly Posted April 1, 2015 #4 Posted April 1, 2015 Remember that you will only have power to the pump for a few seconds. If the bike does not start the power to the pump will shut off due to sensor not detecting spark when engine fails to start. This is a safety feature to prevent pump from pumping fuel out of the carbs. Jim
