Pump rebuild or not

[wampaku]

I bought a rx and a gtx di without prior knowledge. I wanna kick myself in the head but oh well. These units sat for 6 yrs in the desert sun. Haven't got them running yet but should I rebuild the pumps? Who sells a great rebuild kit? Is it fairly easy to do? I have the tools and I am mechanically incline. They both are 951/947's.

Sounds to me like you're putting "the cart before the horse". I'd get them running first and then ride them to see how they do. You may find out that you have engine or fuel injection issues that stop you in you tracks. Worry about the pumps last.

I agree, but you might want to change the pump oil. I would leave it at that until you check out the rest of the ski.
