Fuel pump issue

[LVDjetskis]

Hey folks, looking for some advice. In the process of slowly rehabbing our 2000 SeaDoo GTX, we took the carbs off the other day for a rebuild since one of the low speed screws was essentially junked in place (wouldn't turn). We used genuine Mikuni rebuild kits, and everything went back together without a hitch. Unfortunately, post reinstall, we're not getting any gas through the pump. The pulse line wasn't changed/seems to be fine, and other than the ski sitting for a couple weeks between the start and finish of the rebuild, nothing else in the fuel system has changed. Any advice on what we might look for or ways to narrow down the problem?

Thanks in advance,

-LVD

Did you follow the carb rebuild sticky? Did you test pop-ff and leak down?

I did follow the carb rebuild post, and everything went together like normal, but I did not have access to the equipment needed to test the pop off and leak down.

I am also having trouble with getting the choke cable back into the right spot, it is opening, but not closing all the way.

If it is not pulling fuel then you didn't get something correct with the fuel pump. That is why the final leak down test is so important.
