More fuel problems 94Sp

[jswanson]

Machine ran fine for the last five days w/o having to rebuild carb. Used a stabil like additive made by briggs and stration for 2 cycles, it's starting fine.
Today won't start unless I give full throttle and i noticed in my new fuel lines there's an air pocket/bubble. This shouldn't be there...right? Possibly one of my connections are loose to allow air in? Also when I cut the new lines I added a little bit to the length vs. original, Would too much slack in the lines cause a problem for good fuel flow?

SeaDoo does not use a pressurized fuel system, they have a fuel pump in each carb. This is not to say that you don't have an air leak.

Check your fuel lines and make sure everything is tight. Did you clean the fuel filters and change or clean the fuel selector valve?

Unless you went way overboard the lines being a little longer shouldn't make any difference.

Fuel selector and filters are new, connections are secure. I ran it with it sitting on boat lift and air pockets go away so that's good. Has to be carb problem for hard starting. I've experiment with low speed mixture and idle till it runs decent but still won't start easily. Can't spend too much time messing with or wife will stop buying beer. Likely will have mechanic look at carb. My 215 Wake and Boat are running fine so kids need to be thankful for that.
Thanks for the reply
