You may have a dirty DESS post or lanyard. Have tried cleaning the post and key with soap and water? It could be a number of things.

Can you turn the motor over at all?

When you do a fuel system overhaul like you did, it takes a while for fuel to get through all of the lines. Try dumping some premix down the motor and see if she'll fire?

its a new lanyard and dess post looks good i put premix in the carbs and will fire but still not getting fuel to the carbs

fuel lines crossed up, at the baffle?

 

[cholmes10957t]

double checked and all are right it sounds like it wants to run but wont i have fuel but not alot would the dess stop it from starting?

If you're not getting solid connection at the DESS it will die when the connection is lost.

It doesnt explain why you're not getting fuel. Does the engine compartment smell like fuel?

Did you rebuild your carbs or just clean them and put back together?

i cleaned the carbs and verified all fuel hook ups im lost anymore ideas?
