My 2003 F650GS has been standing for quite a number of years and I’m trying to get it up and running again.

I put some fresh fuel in it and turned on the ignition switch and heard the pump activate and when I turned off the ignition I heard the fuel filter/pressure regulator (?) powering off (?).

I then tried to start the motor but it wouldn’t fire up.

I know that the ethanol in our petrol can cause havoc when it gets old and fuel pumps are especially vulnerable.

So I think it’s either:

1. The fuel pump

2. A blocked fuel filter/pressure regulator

3. A blocked injector

Is there a way to see if the pump is working?

Any help or advice on how to proceed from here would be appreciated.
