Trouble starting 2000 gtx

[LVDjetskis]

Hello all, I am having some hard time starting my 2000 gtx, it has freshly rebuilt carbs and starts easily with starting fluid and runs great once its running. Any Ideas?

If you’re still running these clear fuel lines I would get rid of them, they get hard and brittle fast and I find they don’t fit correctly from the start. You can see air bubbles in th lines in your picture
