How do I fix the Monitor Lifter Pump 1103?
The pump is not drawing oil but only when when sucking. (You knew that). I would guess that moving the heater caused a small leak in the oil suction line or pluggage in a suction strainer/filter. When primed, everything is OK. So ignitor, nozzle, etc is OK when the prime fluid is present. But the pump cannot draw liquid. Look for a very small leak in the suction letting air in. Look for pluggage in a suction filter. It won't take much air inleak or suction restriction to stop a pump from lifting.

Putting our heads together
We own a 250cc Yamaha YZ
I don't have a motorcycle license but I drive almost anything that goes off-road. I also have a 700cc Skidoo Mach 1 which is explained because I live in Wisconsin. I'm looking for a new (well used) ATV and figure with the way gas is, I should be able to find one fairly cheap. I have friends that ride the big bikes. I actually just replaced and upgraded the engine in my car which is more than can be said by the Indian posters who probably only own a bike(cycle). I answer what I know, so if the motorcycle area has something I can answer, I will, otherwise I leave it be. I post in many different areas but I'm the kind of guy that fixes everything himself so knowledge is not a problem. So thanks and hope to see you here for a long time or at least until I get fed up with the yahoos.
Have a good night,
I think it might be Ping Pong time soon.

Skoda Fabia. Will not go
First check the clutch - it might be unadjusted so it doesn't disconnects totally. If the clutch is OK then the problem is in the gearbox: the locking system of the shifting forks is defective. The gearbox must be dismantled and the forks and their mechanism inspected and repaired - a job for a shop.
I dont think my yamaha
With the engine running at about half power/speed, put a volt meter across the battery terminals. The meter should read somewhere around 14.5 volts. If it is below 13 volts it is definitely not charging. Consider that the battery, unless new, could also be failing.
Please advice , can i
the one with the peugeot diesel engine ?? only fit a bigger engine ,all these vehicles are the same and not rapid its a workhorse not a F1 ,you could try a new turbo but thats about all you can do unless you tae the engine out and fit a nice jagaur lump .Or buy a ford explorer or a jeep but these are all petrol vehicles and you will need to tow a fuel bowser behind you unless you can find a diesel manual version

How to decribe your problem

2) make of the veh.
3) model of the veh.
4) engine size is a big help
5) automatic or stick
6) FWD, AWD, 4WD is a nice plus
How to Bleed Your Brakes
There are two basic methods of Brake fluid bleeding.
By only one person,using a Vacuum Pump/Brake Bleed Kit.
By two persons,using the pressure of piston at the master cylinder.
Lift up your car with 4 jack stands, and remove all wheels.
In two cases, the most important task is to make sure the bleed nipple can be loosened.
You need a box wrench that fits the bleeder nipple. A little penetrating oil on the nipples overnight will help. If it doesn’t help, apply heat (butane torch or similar) and then spray again with WD40. With some moderate tapping with a hammer to break any corrosion, loosen the nipples.
If the bleed nipples are welded solid in the caliper then you need to have the nipples drilled out and heli-coils fitted by a local engineering workshop.
So it is a good idea each time you bleed the brakes replace the bleed nipples with the new one.
Use at least, High-Performance DOT 3 or DOT4 Brake Fluid.
An unopened can has a long shelf life. An opened can absorbs humidity, and should be discarded within a few weeks.
Fit a piece of clear tubing over the bleed screw nipple and run the hose into a clear bottle. Unscrew the Bleed Nipple about a 1/4 turn and go pump the brake pedal and keep refilling the reservoir before it goes below the 3/4 mark or air will be drawn into the system, close the bleeder.
Torque the bleed nipples to only 30-50 inch pounds (about 3– 5`foot pounds). Don’t forget to put on the rubber caps.
Repeat until clean/clear fluid comes out. Move to the next wheel until all are done.
Depend on what dual braking system your car has, the pattern is different.
Ensure you have a nice firm brake pedal before you take the car off the jacks.
Make sure that you clean up any spills with a rag and ensure that you dispose of your waste brake fluid in a responsible and safe manner.
