fuel

Hello all! I am trying to start my new (well, not new) 1996 Challenger and noticed the fuel lines are bone dry. Not dry rotted. Empty. It looks like this has some sort of fuel pump. How do I get it to prime the system? Also, if you actually DO have a 1996 seadoo Challenger, can you please...

Hey everyone, I am thinking about buying a sea-doo GTI 130 and i have a few questions. I'm pretty new to jet skiing so i apologize in advance for any stupid questions :) - How much would the GTI 130 consume in ECO mode ? ( if you can't give me a rough number a range would be appreciated )...

Im new to the forum and im glad i found it because there looks to be a lot of good info on here. Im a tech in a yamaha, suzuki, ski doo, and arctic cat dealer. Im a motocross guy, just bought my first sled and now i stumbled across a old sea doo and picked it up real cheap (figured id see if i...

My ski runs at low - no throttle, then when I gas it, it dies after a few seconds. It will start back up after I let it sit for a second. Any suggestions?

My shop manual says to measure PURPLE/PINK and BLACK at the gauge plug. I unplug the connector and place multimeter leads on the specified wires (pin 1 and 3). I press the start/stop button... the relay clicks... I get 11.90V. I plug the connector back into the gauge... no reading on the...

Hey everyone! I have a '95 GTS. Anyone have any clue about how long and how big the lines should be? I've go the grey ones in there now so I need to get those out!

Hey guys I'm new to jet boats and need a little advice. I bought a 1997 challenger 1800 this spring and staring to have a problem with the starboard engine. I De-winterized it, put fresh gas in, and topped off the oil. Took it out on the river for about 2 hours it ran amazing 63mph WOT on...

Hi fellow merc owners. 2nd time in my islandias life that it's been towed. Last was due to a broken belt. This time it is fuel starvation. When I squeeze the strader valve out comes air. From the compressor but no fuel? I removed the spin on and drained it No water in it. I turn key...

It died on me about five years ago and just got around to working on it again. At the time it would crank but would not start except with starter fluid (which i know not to use now) so i know it has spark and compression, i think, which leaves fuel delivery, so i rebuilt the carb replaced all of...

The gti quit running four or five years ago at the time the engine would crank but not fire unless i sprayed starter fluid in the carb, I finally got around to working on it this year and rebuilt the carb replaced all of those gray fuel lines replaced the battery and opened up the engine to free...

My 97 gsi bogs off while accelerating and maxes out around 4K RPM EXCEPT when I hit a wave with a good jolt and the RPMs then go up to around 5.5+K (which it then appears to be delivering full power). This additional power will last for a second or so (unless I hit another wave). It seems that...

1999 SEADOO xp limited if i fill the gas tank up clear up to the neck it runs perfect but as soon as i use about a lil more then a 1/4 tank meaning that there is still way over a half a tank left ...it starts cutting out wont run max rpms and acts like its getting air in the fuel but if i beach...

I bought a 1998 gs with a bad mpem. I since replaced the mpem and got it to fire up for a couple seconds . There was bad gas in the tank when I got it. I cleaned out the carb and the filter and drained the tank. Didn't think of the lines til now. It fires up with mixed gas or carb cleaner...

Hello My infocenter gauge for my 96 gti is not functional, corrosion all over the rear contacts. I am looking to just put a standard fuel gauge in. Is it possible for me to get one from a older or newer model and adapt it to work. I had to replace to MPEM last year so im sure the info gauge...

hey guys ive hit a bump in my start of the season by needing to clean some fuel passageways. My question is how do i clean the water separator for the gas (can i take out the bowl without taking our the entire unit), where can i get a new inline oil filter (best price) and should i should i also...

Hi everyone, A few weeks ago I ran my tank very close to empty. After refueling and taking the boat out a different day, there were some issues with it beeping if I idled for any length of time, and a studder / hesitation when raising the throttle just above idle. The problem slowly got...

Does anyone have any suggestions on cleaning a fuel tank on a 97 Sportster. Does the motor have to come out for the tank to come out? Please let me know any cleaners, methods, or tips you have for cleaning a fuel tank. There is a bunch of flaky brown stuff that's coming up and clogging filters.

95 GTX has developed a random fuel delivery problem. After running fine for 20-30 seconds, it dies as though it is out of fuel. Sometimes if you let off the throttle quick enough it will regain enough fuel to keep running, but if you stay on the throttle it dies. Restarts and repeats performance...

Hi everyone.... I'm looking for some guidance if this sounds more like a fuel problem or electrical problem. Basically I have a Challenger 1800 with twin 787's. I purchased it used 3 years ago with 1 engine not working. I brought it to a dealership who said its an MPEM problem so I had...

I'm deep in in now... using the instructions in the forum, I jumped the fuse in the fuel baffle awhile back, and tested OK by checking the resistance readings while moving the float up and down. Put a new float in at the same time for good measure. Still no reading on the gauge. After just...
