No fuel possible vapor lock

[Ken Holmes]

2007 Ultra. Starts great. When hot, won't start. Cools off won't start. Bleed gas line off tank, fires right up. Warms up, won't start. Bleed a little gas from gas line, starts right up. Help!

Check the vent hose for blockage. Do you get any pressure sound when you open the gas cap?

How do you "bleed a little gas from gas line"? F.I. has 50+ psi inside the line from tank to injector. No place for vapor lock.

e quick disconnect off bottom of tank. Just kinda head pressure. It's not running. Died. Put quick disconnect back on and it fires up.

I'll check er out!

When you put the gas line back on and fired it up, did it stay running?

 

[Ken Holmes]

Yes. Ran just fine. Has happened @ 6 times and always starts and runs but the last two times I had to do it 2-3 times until it runs. Gradually getting worse.

I'd take a look at the fuel filter (in tank). Not hard, a lil' fiddly though. Might have a crack in fuel line too.
