Need help please, fuel pump dead........

[JagLite]

Often the picture isn't the exact unit, usually just a common picture and the text might say, "your part may look different" or something.
Check with the seller if all connections are exactly the same...

This is good to know just in case!

Did you have to do any modifications? The terminals look totally different......

[greenbarn]

Almost worth getting one for a spare at that price...

[OR Seedman]

they carry one for 2001-2005 drifters as well...different part number but same price....just look on the menu to find one...

Thanks for the x-post pilgrim.

Anyone used this pump on a 01 or later Drifter?

This is good to know just in case!

 I have used this pump on a few bikes, no issues at all.  even after 5 tears of hot hard AZ riding/

I'm interested in hearing form folks that have successfully used one of these pumps - I'm thinking about getting one to keep on the shelf.

The 1999 and 2000 1500 Drifters have in-tank fuel pumps too.

[basilbug]

Not sure but I believe that the 1999 and 2000 had external fuel pumps, mine is a 2001 with a internal fuel tank pump....that link says 1999-2000....

Thank you for the link. I have looked at previous topics with no real part number. The $600 price is for the whole unit, everything, minus the  GASKET part number 11060-1929 not just the fuel pump. The link that you sent, is it the exact same size? What about fuel filter?

Thanks again......

[Old Drifter]

If I recall, some members here have used fuel pumps costing a lot less than the $600 price. Try doing a search on the forum, I think they may have gotten them on ebay. Good luck.

Here's one on ebay at a fraction of the $600 price. There are also others to choose from. https://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-Replacement-Fuel-Pump-Kit-w-Filter-2001-2005-Kawasaki-Vulcan-1500-Drifter/112433831798?epid=1023005718&hash=item1a2d941f76:g:WikAAOSwDkVaS79q&vxp=mtr

I hate to say this but I have not ridden my 2001 1500 for over 3 years. But wanting to ride again. So i did all the usual stuff, fluid changes, filters..... Turn the key and no fuel pump noise. Now I have some rust in the tank and was going to clean with metal rescue later. I have looked for what the manual states by replacing the whole assembly but when I looked at the price of that, my heart almost stopped, $600.00 ish.....

If I just take the fuel assembly out and clean it, what filter and pump would you guys recommend using?? Part numbers??

Thank you
