NC29 help needed - what goes where?!
Posted: Sun Jan 09, 2011 9:16 pm
Right chaps, picked up my 29 today and made a start on it. Obviously first thing to do is establish if she's a runner so bought some oil and a filter (£22 deal from HG - ideal! :))
Drained old oil and there was hardly any old stuff in it which is a worry. So not put the new in as need more daylight before I can check for leaks since garage is cramped and not that well lit.
The other things I need to do before I try and start it is work out operation and fixing location of fuel pump which is hanging loose at present and is only connected to the loom, ie no fuel pipes fitted. In the same kind of area there's also two yellow wires coming from the loom on the rh side (as you sit on it) into a brownish plug that is not connected to anything and looks like it should be, and a white plastic tray (tinged red in the pic with the fuel pump laying on top of it) fixed to the frame above the area of the top mount of the rear shock that looks like some form of receptacle for cables and/or a mount for something - again does not look right as there's nothing routed through it or fixed to it.
Anyone got a close up pic of their own bike around the fuel pump area or a diagram showing what goes where? Cmsl micro fische is good for showing various parts and numbers but doesn't tell me where everything goes!
Many thanks,
Rob
Edit - pic added to show what i'm on about. It shows the loose fuel pump and the yellow wires not connected to anything. (wiring on most parts of the bike is all over the place!). For the fuel pump i'm assuming as follows: fuel line from tap on tank to pump, fuel line from pump to connection at bottom rail of carbs, which leaves a smaller diameter pipe connection coming from the fuel pump that i have no idea about.
