I have a 2005 Kawasaki Mule 3010 4x4 , it's been a good unit with just basic maintenance done by me and one dealer service over the years . I now have a little over 800 hours and it's overdue for dealer valve clearance check/adjustment. I always use Stabil in the gas , and lately it's been very hard starting and doesn't want to stay running. I put new plugs in and a fuel filter....When I turn the key to start it I can see a bubble move in the fuel filter but I don't think gas is actually flowing through. So I'm thinking it might be the fuel pump... New Kawaskaki pump is $263 knock off on Ebay or Amazon $15 -$25 . I've read ALOT of bad reviews on the cheap Fuel pumps , just wondering if anyone here has used the cheap pumps and has had good luck or I'm better of spending the big money on a Kawasaki pump. I understand it could also be a Fuel pump relay or possibly gummed up carb. That's above my skill level and don't want to mess with that. But I'm pretty sure I can switch out the fuel pump...AND then if that doesn't work have the dealer look at it... They charge $149.00 a hour labor plus a diagnosis fee ! so trying to save a buck if possible,. Thanks for any advice or info if you had a mule with a bad fuel pump and what to look for.
