2007 Buell Lightning: Fuel System 4-33
HOME
7. See Figure 4-24. Attach fuel pump connector [86] to
main wiring harness.
8. See Figure 4-27. Pressurize the fuel system.
a. Start and idle engine to pressurize the fuel system.
b. Open fuel valve (2) on fuel pressure gauge to allow
fuel to flow down the gauge hose.
c. Position the air bleed tube (3) into proper container.
d. Open and close the air bleed petcock (5) to purge
the fuel pressure gauge and hose of air. Repeat this
step several times until only solid fuel (without bub-
bles) flows from the air bleed tube.
e. Close the air bleed petcock.
9. Open throttle and increase engine speed to 2500-3000
RPM. Note the reading on the pressure gauge.
a. If pressure is 49-51 PSI (338-352 kPa) then system
is operating within limits.
b. If pressure is not within limits, see Test 4.13 (Part 1
of 2) flow chart after disconnecting pressure gauge.
1WARNING1WARNING
With fuel tank drained, gasoline can spill from bore when
supply valve is loosened or removed. Gasoline is
extremely flammable and highly explosive, which could
result in death or serious injury. Wipe up spilled fuel
immediately and dispose of rags in a suitable manner.

10. See Figure 4-27. Turn engine off. Detach pressure gauge
(4) from adapter (1).
a. Open the air bleed petcock (5) to relieve fuel system
pressure and purge the pressure gauge of gasoline.
b. Remove pressure gauge from adapter.
11. Detach adapter from vehicle.
12. Connect fuel line to throttle body inlet.
DIAGNOSTICS
Diagnostic Notes
The reference numbers below correlate with the circled num-
bers on the Test 4.13 flow charts.
