hello everyone i’m new here but i figured this would be the best place to find answers to my questions so first off i have recently bought a 2001 seadoo gtx di and the person who sold it to me said that it needed a fuel pump to run so i replaced the fuel pump and it will prime and fire but won’t run if y’all have any ideas please let me know. thanks!

LOL, classic person selling a DI line, "It just needs a fuel pump" followed by "It just needs a battery".
Fuel pressure is critical on a DI ski and just as critical is electrical system voltage. The aftermarket pumps pull too much power and basically the electrical system gets a brown-out and can't function.
I haven't seen anyone have any lasting success with the aftermarket fuel pumps and the OEM ones are $1,000 which is why people typically unload a non-running DI.
Some have had luck cleaning an OEM pump and getting it working by running it on the bench with a mixture of 50/50 gas and Toluene.

A CanDooPro ($400) will tell you what the code is, but you are betting off focusing on fuel pressure first. If that checks out, move on to chasing the code.
