A little flabbergasted so thought I'd get opinions/advice. Just got this 1999 GTX RFI, good looking ski with clean looking motor. It has not been run in 2 years. The kid I got it from said he was riding and it just quit and wouldn't start back up. It appears to have good spark. Just to see if it would hit or try to start I squirted a little starting fluid into the intake. NOTHING... turns over fine and seems to have good compression. I don't even get a hit or puff of smoke out of it. I've got a top of the line spark checker and it's showing very good fire jumping 3/8". Just looking at the shaft turning it kind of appears that the impeller shaft may be wobbly or having problems. I'll check that when it gets to running...
