Title: H-D Pan American
Post by: roadkingdresser on February 25, 2024, 03:48:57 AM
Anybody know anything about these bikes. A friend bought one,only has 5k mi. We charged the battery put gas in it and changed the oil. When we try to start it it fires up but then shuts back down. Can hear the fuel pump running till it's primed. Took the plugs out and they are wet,but there is plenty of spark. Any help would be apreciated.

First thing I'd do is get a Service Manual. Fuel pressure related maybe  :nix: .

I have one.  Don't know a lot a out it.  Fuel pump on mine was replaced under warranty for making bad a horrible noise.  I never had starting issues fuel pump related.  I did have them battery related.  If battery is at all low it will not start or start and die.  Battery is a almost undersized, two weeks of it not on a tender and not being used is enough for battery issues.

The 2024 comes with a bigger battery and  bigger alternater.
