I know this is an old one you've all heard before but i recently had problems with the fuel pump on my 2009 F800GS fuel pump in Morocco.
At the latter end of a long hard days riding it would begin cutting out for 5-10s every so often the cutting back in again for a while. This would then progress fairly quickly to a situation where the bike would run for 10s then cut out for 5s then cut cack in for 10s and so on.
I am informed that the BMW pump has a thermostatic cut off or (thermister) which when subject to permanently high temperatures and cuts out the pump via the canbus.
I have been advised that the fuel pump for a Toyota Corolla is exactly the same but without the annoying thermal cut out feature and much cheeper.
I have been warned that the Toyota corolla pump in question may be from a specific period like 90-94 for example.
Can anyone shed any light on this for me please.
Good places to get one on line, a rough price and if possible a part number would all be very helpful indeed.
P.S. the bike has run perfectly since being back in the Uk but i still want to replace the part as i am swapping bikes and want to hand it on in good order !
Any advice gratefully received
