| Post subject: | Leaky Fork Seals |
Hi group - 1st post. I'm finding everything I Google about 907s brings me here. I have two 907IE's; a 91 & 93, I was wondering if the forks were interchangeable (I believe I saw somewhere that was one of the few parts that were not). Also I'm a newbie mechanic, but I'm learning quickly: I have fluid coming out of one of the forks - is the most probable symptom a bad seal, or are there other possibilities as well? One more question: My fuel pump has become clogged w/ rust as the mechanic did not replace the cup filter it sits in. Can I soak this in a solution and use a compressor to blow out the junk in a direction from the nipple to the base? Thanks! |

Hey Nick - Thanks for the welcome & the info. This isn't the original fuel pump,this is an 800 dollar replacement I bought 10 years ago and is not capable of disassembly as I broke the original one becoming impatient and began forcing things. I see now there are 60 dollar replacement fuel pumps that will do the trick. The fuel pump gets power and sounds seized; it doesn't sound like there is any internal movement, a louder than normal hum accompanied with more than normal vibration, I wouldn't consider it a crunchy sound. I'm using some 'over-the-counter' gas treatment type of solvent, I don't think it's too toxic. I'll try blowing it out later & post results for future readers. Thanks, Shawn |
