Hello!
Past spring i bought my first supercharged Valkyrie (1999 Interstate) .Mostly sitting in the garage , it had about 8k miles on the clock and i don't know how many actual miles were done on the blower ? I am total newbie on supercharged valks. When searched tech board , I’ve learned , that malfunction described below , could be related to the fuel pump, because it’s staying “on" all the time with “clicking” sound - but never stop pumping .
I do not believe it’s normal behaviour , especially : cold start or low range of rpm-s and sudden death on the first gear , creates difficulties hard to accept . When I release the clutch , I have to open throttle almost 50% to move the bike...eventually she jumps like a frog. On 2nd and higher gears , bike runs very fast. It's horrible feeling to move from the lights and than I am afraid to burn clutch...but there is no other way to keep engine running....without creating tricks , allowing to ride at all .
I also read posted by Jeff Kozloski suggestions about a pressure regulator. However - is there any pressure regulator as a standard equipment on every blown valk or just only on fuel injected versions ? If so, I need exact part number of it or any other substitutes . I’ve found , that it might be a holley?
Simply , I am trying to locate and replace correct parts , as an all possibly weak or faulty points in my supercharged valk .
I am open to all suggestions and thank you guys in advance.
Removed fuel tank today. First picture is the fuel pump and regulator I guess. Carb is H-D.
