What's wrong?
The fuel pump on the 2018-2019 Kymco Like 150I is the electric pump inside the tank that feeds gasoline to the engine. It draws fuel from the tank and sends it through the delivery system so the engine has steady fuel flow while the motorcycle is running.
On affected motorcycles, the rubber plug around the electrical wiring inside the fuel pump does not seal correctly when the fuel tank is full or overfilled. Fuel can leak through that plug and escape from the electrical connection area. If gasoline escapes near the pump and wiring pass-through, it creates a fire hazard.
The rider can smell gasoline or see fuel stains under the motorcycle after it has stopped or been parked. Those are warning signs that fuel is leaking from the pump area.
