Hey everyone, picked up a used 2011 FS570 with 385 miles on it. Yesterday it stalled after a short 80mph+ blast down the highway and stranded me in traffic! It was hot outside. I sat for about 30 minutes at which point it fired back up. Manufacture date on the frame is 09/10. I've read several posts about possible causes but I wanted to start this thread to document my troubleshooting and experience with the issue. I recently de-smogged it. Here's my plan:
1) Heat wrap the exhaust near the tank and apply heat shield to the underside of the tank itself.
2) Replace fuel pump? Is there an easy way to tell if mine is one of the bad ones? Or just replace and move on?
3) Replace exhaust can. FMF 4.1? Don't want something loud but it sounds like the stock can contributes to overheating the fuel.
4) ???
I'll report back as I make progress. Suggestions and advice are welcomed as it's no fun to ride wondering when you'll be stranded!
