2008 Can Am Spyder GS SM5 Doesn’t start
Hi Everyone! Got my first Spyder of the auction just to try what it is and expectedly run into issues. Oil cooler had a puncture in it. I replaced it, did oil change, installed new battery and now it cranks but doesn’t start. Fuel pump working, replaced fuel pressure regulator, fuel injector, spark plugs- still nothing.
I would appreciate any help! Thank you.

and on your first post.
I'm not a mechanic, so will have to wait for some of them to chime in. I did have an 08/SM5 though. I had the first one sold to a customer in AK. For me, it was a good ride.
Currently Owned: 2019 F3 Limited, 2020 F3 Limited: SOLD BOTH LIMITEDS in October of 2023.
Previously : 2008 GS-SM5 (silver), 2009 RS-SE5 (red), 2010 RT-S Premier Editon #474 (black) 2011 RT A&C SE5 (magnesium) 2014 RTS-SE6 (yellow)
MY FINAL TALLY: 7 Spyders, 15 years, 205,500 miles
IT HAS BEEN A LONG, WONDERFUL, AND FUN RIDE.

Replaced plugs confirmed spark if you don’t have any history on the bike, run the VIN number with a dealer, hopefully they can verify if & when some services & updates were done. Maybe some helpful info here:

I will contact the dealer with VIN, thanks for advice! But at the mean time I have to fix that issue. There is crank, there is spark, compression, fuel delivery. The only thing I can think of is either timing or no signal to fuel injector.
