Thanks for the upload. $4 gasket and about an hour later... my leak is gone! My two cents, here, on the removal of the sending unit: Be patient, while carefully twisting and jogging the floater out from the port and you won't bend anything or need to re-adjust anything. Thx again.

Thanks man, I gassed up today and watch my money pour right out. Seemed to slow down when I stood the bike up. Fingers crossed.

Perfect! 1991 FXDB Sturgis. Identical problem, identical fix (except I didn’t pull the whole assembly out). Thank you!

1993 DYNA LOWRIDER leaking when full of gas and for a long time I could not figure out where it was coming from . Replaced fuel line and cross over and noticed fuel gage wireslook like they were brittle and broken . I repaired them and filled up the tank and saw a fast drip out of the wiring tube. Thanks for your help.

Got a 2000 Fatboy and the fuel sender is completely gone. Any ideas on how to replace it? I saw a few on eBay but they were $200-$300

I couldn't work out what was going on in there, not realising the pipe that the wires are routed through goes the full depth of the tank. I cut the wires and sealed the pipe from outside s an emergency measure.Yesterday i had fuel spill out from under the dummy gas cap........now I know why. again, many thanks.

@eckyspondoolie removing the battery ,,helps to prevent sparks,, ONLY while working on it, ! if you have wires crossed or going to the wrong terminals,, once you hook up POWER , you will still have a problem.. but yes , you have stated the obvious.
@NJtrainer14 жыл бұрын
my main question still remains, The orange and black wires that go through the tank, hook to what.? im guessing black is a ground, and orange is power,,when the ignition is on,,right.? does anyone know. Tom in NJ

also try putting Teflon tape on the screws to help seal better

Hey great video, however I can't get my gauge out, it come up 1/4 " but will not pop out, any idea's, it's a 94 roadking, the gauge looks exactly like yours, has same side clips that I can see have come loose but it will not elevate...Tnx
@dickreed698710 жыл бұрын
Also, did you disconnect the battery when you did this?
@hoohoohoblin10 жыл бұрын
I don't know. Mine is a 1991 model, and the gauge just pops out. There isn't anything holding it in other than a rubber gasket. I wonder if your rubber gasket has hardened up and gotten stuck to the tank and gauge. I don't know if they changed the design in 1994. You should definitely disconnect the battery when you do this.
@hoohoohoblin10 жыл бұрын
Read this. It might help. It's possible the wires need to be disconnected at the bottom of the tank to allow the gauge to come out. www.v-twinforum.com/forums/v-twin-forum-general-harley-talk/45685-stock-fuel-gauge-removal.html

***** I was pulling on the wires, they were short but after looking up inside under the tank I saw where the had plugs....all I did was pull them out and feed up the tube and BAM, popped right out...Your video was great, I had same loose screws, tnx allot, saved me some bucks.....
@aladdinlamp11810 жыл бұрын
you have to angle it out so that the part in the tank comes straight out you may have to bend the rod and bend it back when you put it back

nice video but i gues you have never held gas in a polly bag for long then??? it affects the plastic in no time.

94 lowrider.gas is showing up in my oil resevoir????
@hoohoohoblin10 жыл бұрын
It is coming from the carburetor. A carburetor overhaul kit is $17. You need to replace the needle valve and gaskets. Don't ride the bike with gas in the oil.
@aladdinlamp11810 жыл бұрын
Try changing your oil right away, and the filter too if you can afford it. It might be from gas running into the motor if you left your petcock on.
