Hey all,
Working on a 2000 GTI with a 720.
The craft was put in the water without drain plugs in. It took on water and an attempt was made to start it. The engine ingested water and made a gray sludge. I had to completely disassemble the engine and clean it all out.
Engine is back and and will spin over but not start. It has spark on both cylinders, good primary and secondary compression. The rotary valve is timed correctly and ignition timing is correct.
The carb was clogged pretty bad and I don't think I was able to get it all out.
I don't have much experience working on water crafts, but when I crank it over should I be feeling a pulse at the throat of the carb? I know the cylinders are not getting fuel. i can crank it all day and never smell any fuel, no wet plugs. If rotary timing is good, crankcase pulse is good, then it must be the carb?
Any help would be greatly appricated.
Thanks
