Why did my GL1500 Goldwing fuel pump die?

Has your GL1500 died under conditions of hot ambient temperatures and high load and then mysteriously restarted and ran fine after it cooled down? You may be experiencing a weak fuel pump. On one trip, I had my 1500 repeatedly stumble, lose power and die under such circumstances. I was pulling a mountain pass, 2-up at 70MPH on a 95 degree day.

How do you change fuel line on Goldwing?

The 1 small one just pulls off. Remove the fuel line (watch it, it’ll drain some fuel) and plug the end of it. Remove all 6 of the 10mm nuts holding the cover on (don’t drop any into the bowels of the bike!) and slowly lift the cover up about 2-3 inches then stop.
