My 2002 Sea doo xp will not start. I was ridding it and fell. When i got back on it wouldn't start and hasn't ran since. The engine will turn over and the battery is fine. The spark plugs have spark and there doesn't seem to be any water in the engine. When i try to start it everything sounds normal, i give it throttle and you can hear the engine try harder to start. I feel like it might not be getting fuel. Do jet skis have fuel pumps? I can get the jet ski running for like a second when i take out the spark plugs and put started fluid in the cylinder and put the plugs back in. Not sure if it is an electrical problem. Lately my gauges have been working on and off and my oil light keeps coming on even with a full tank of oil. I also know that i have one blown 3 amp fuse, i had no extra fuses so i took one of the working ones out and put it in the bad ones spot just to see if it would start. It does not. Also i emptied all the fuel out of my fuel filter, it is very dry now, and with all the attempts to start the jet ski there is still now fuel in the filter. Please Help...Thank You
 
To me, it sounds like it is fuel related as well. You may want to check for the normal things: Grey fuel lines, Fuel Regulator Valve (On, off, Reserve), clogged fuel filter's in the carb(s). If you have the grey fuel lines they supposedly deteriate from the inside and will clog up the fuel filters in the carb and Fuel Regulator valve.
 
By gray gas lines do you mean that if the lines are gray then there is deterioration going on? or is it that the stock color is gray and those lines have been known to do this? Thank you for your help
 
stock lines are grey they r eaten by the ethanol that is in our fuel now a days if ur lines r black they have already been changed
