Hi everyone. I'm new to this forum and am looking for tips/help on my 1997 Sportster.
It goes to about halfway on throttle, then dies back
Cannot get the boat to plane out or reach the rpm needed!
Below are the things that have been done to it recently per suggestions by local seadoo man.
He now is suggesting I try changing from dual carb to single carb.
IS THAT A GOOD IDEA? HAS ANYONE EVER DONE THIS WITH SUCCESS?
Rebuilt both carbs, and checked them 3 times.
Popoff working good at 25 PSI.
Low side adjustment is 2 turns out, the high side is 1/4 turn.
I've tried many different combinations on adjustments, even while standing in the engine compartment!
I've checked for fuel line blockage, but don't see any problem.
Sending unit in fuel tank has been cleaned out.
The shutoff valve has been bypassed.
Could there be a fuel blockage?
Any ideas will be helpful!
