Working on my 04 DL1000 stalling/surging problem and was chasing down a FI code and greywolf suggested that I also look for mechanical problems (Thanks GW). Well the tank was off already so I removed the fuel pump assembly and this is what the filter strainer looked like.
Could this be the culprit?
Looks like I'll be replacing this filter strainer, but the manual says to replace the fuel filter as well. $266!!!
It looks as if the fuel filter assembly is the black plastic housing (not the unit that the filter strainer is attached to). I'm willing to spend it if it cures my problem but wow. Any suggestions for cleaning out the gas tank? Sure don't want to do this again anytime soon.
It also says to grease the O-Ring with Suzuki Super Grease A. Is there a substitute?
It's enough to make me long for my carbureted bikes!
