This is the first thread that I posted on here, so I'm hoping its in the right area!

I have had my wr125r for around 7 months now and up until a few weeks ago it was working fine on everyday use, now when I turn the key there is no whine from the fuel pump, it will turn over but it won't ignite. I have changed the battery in hope that the battery was the problem as it failed a drop test and I was advised to get a new one. I have put a multimeter on both the battery and the fuel pump, the battery is reading 12.48 volts and the pump power point is reading around 12.33, but when I turn the key there is still no whine. I have opened the fuel cap and turned the key to listen if there is any noise from the pump, but all I can hear when I turn the key is a clunk coming from the bottom of the tank but no whining.. Is my fuel pump knackered?

Thanks

Sainz

Fitted the new pump tonight and the wr125 fired back into life! Couldn't be happier!! Thanks again guys

I might open the old pump up to see what may have caused the failure.. If it's anything as unexpected as scouring pads or bubble wrap i'll let you know haha!
