98' Challenger 787 Overfueling

[consentido1]

Just bought this boat and haven't been able to get it going. I recently noticed that it is over fueling. I pulled the spark plugs and noticed they were really wet, I turned it over and it smells like fuel spraying out. Not sure what causes this or how to correct it.

If you keep cranking it and it does not start then you will flood the engine. This is what is supposed to happen. Fuel is pumped into the engine whether it starts or not.

The question is why is it not starting. Check to see if you have spark. And be careful since you will have lots of fumes in the air from flooding the engine.

If the plugs are that wet could be leaking needle and seat in the carbs.
If you haven't done a carb rebuild you should, follow this to the letter. The Seadoo Carb Rebuild Thread
