Re:Customized bike not starting - fuel gauge sweep 1 Year, 2 Months ago
the fuel sending unit has nothing to do with sending fuel. it is in the tank and is what gives your gas gauge it's reading. Other than that, that is not the issue. As someone else mention, take the battery and get it load tested, it could be that simple....weak battery
