1996 Sea-Doo Speedster.
The left engine starts up no problem. No choke needed. Idles perfectly.
The right engine starts up, runs for about 30sec then shuts off.
-It only seems to idle at 1k, then dies. I have no problem getting it to start, I don't even have to choke it.
-I noticed that if i rev it up right when it turns over, it will stay running..but I have to keep the engine at full throttle. (When doing this the RPM's are still really low).
-I checked the spark plugs and they are covered in gas / oil. I cleaned them off and tried to start it again. Same problem. I changed the plugs, and still have the same problem.

-I just checked the air filter and it seems pretty dirty but other than that...I don't really know.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks
-Ryan
 
Fixed it. The arm that moves the ummm flaps was disconnected so no air was being allowed in the engine. Reattached the arm and everything works fine.
