I did the troubleshooting today per the VMS guidelines, and it definitely  IS the pressure sender that has gone tango uniform.  It has the  proper 5VDC supply but is sending out higher Volts/psi than it  should.  Even with the fuel line fully vented, the pressure reading is  3 psi and with either the boost pump on or the engine pump running it reads 7-8  psi.  Pretty clear.

  

 Could anyone with the same item tell me the VMS Part Number  for the carbureted fuel pressure sender, so I can cross check them to ensure  that they don't send me the wrong one?  This is for the original  VM1000 circa 1996, not for the new VM1000C.

  

 -Thx

I may be able to help you out but it may take a day or two. I need to do an  oil change soon and plan to get to it in the next few days. If you don't get an  answer from the list by then, let me know and I'll get the info to you. You may  contact me off list.

  

 Do not archive

I have the same unit as you.  My oil pressure part number is 3010018 so I believe the fuel is 3010016.  Sorry I can’t read it directly as it is under the clamp.  

   

By the way I am going on 8 months without a working oil pressure transducer.  I have pretty much given up.

 Thanks.  That is correct and I ordered one today.

		  I have a    low pressure fuel pressure sender which I will be glad to  

donate. It    is for a 2003 vintage VM1000, but I'll bet it is the same.  

I    replaced it (along with a chip in the CPU) with a higher pressure     

sender for a fuel injection system.



Send me a back channel snail    main address and I will get it in the  

mail early next  week. 	


 

 =============================

  

 Charles-

  

 I already paid $200 or so to get a new one shipped from VMS, so I'm  sorry that I didn't know about yours sooner.  Hang on to it and I'm sure  that someone else will have a need for it by and by.
