First step is a compression test to ensure the ski is worth putting $ into. If you have good compression, then you'll definitely need to rebuild the carb using a genuine mikuni kit. Also, did you thoroughly clean or replace the fuel selector valve?

Is the Pulse line connected?

Bypass the selector for now, this will answer if it is the issue. It likely does need replaced, but I'd still bypass it for now to test the system.

You can pressure test the lines and see if they hold pressure. If not, you are sucking air. Or, do a vacuum test on them, probably easier to do that.

Take the fuel line lose from the carburetor and see if you can pull fuel from the tank using a pump. There should be no or VERY LITTLE air in the fuel as you pump it out, a clear piece of vinyl tubing from Home Depot gives you visibility and it can handle the fuel.
