Hi Guys,
I'm fixing my non-mechanical brother's 1998 XP... it starts fine and runs fine even at WOT...for about 5 to 20 seconds....then bogs down to idle. Wait 5-10 seconds, it'll run WOT just fine---for 5-20 seconds. Add infinitum!!! I think it's a fuel pump or internal fuel filter just upstream of the entry into the carbs.
Any help is greatly appreciated....as I am a Mercury outboard mech who's never even seen a rotax before.
Secondly: the serial number on the engine is: 4282379 Can you guide me to a "look up" site to learn the year/H.P., etc of the engine?
Thanks... Bruce (330Capt.)...
