IN WARM WEATHER, FUEL PUMP FAILS AFTER GETTING HOT. TODAY, AFTER A 20 MINUTE RIDE AT INTERSTATE SPEEDS, I ARRIVED AT MY DESTINATION. THE AMBIENT TEMPERATURE WAS AROUND 75 DEGREES. AFTER 2 HOURS, READY TO RETURN, I TRIED TO START THE SCOOTER, NO JOY. AFTER REMOVING THE PLASTIC HELMET TRAY UNDER THE SEAT, I POURED CHILLED WATER ON THE FUEL PUMP ATOP THE GAS TANK, AND THEN THE SCOOTER STARTED RIGHT UP. HAD THIS PROBLEM LAST SUMMER BUT NEVER FIGURED OUT WHAT THE ISSUE WAS. ALWAYS JUST HAD TO LET IT SIT FOR SEVERAL HOURS BEFORE IT WOULD START AGAIN. I GOT THE IDEA TO POUR WATER ON IT AFTER READING SEVERAL POSTS FROM OTHER YAMAHA SCOOTER OWNERS WHO HAVE MENTIONED FUEL PUMP ISSUES. THE BIKE ONLY HAS 3400 MILES ON IT. IT DOES NOT SEEM THAT A COMPONENT LIKE THIS SHOULD BEGIN TO FAIL AFTER THAT FEW MILES. IT IS, OR COURSE, OUT OF MANUFACTURES WARRANTY DUE TO AGE. *TR
