No fuel at carb

[Spoody6677]

I just completed a rebuild on a 2000gs, that been sitting 2 years.I am not getting any fuel to carb, removed return line and crank it over and nothing, thinking it maybe be clogged somewhere in fuel tank. I also was thinking, could it been the gas selector knob not really going from on to off to reserve. I also thought about blowing compressed air threw line back to tank.

Please try to keep these threads together, no need to make a new one for every questions.

If you are not drawing fuel from the carb then start removing parts from the equation. Install a new line directly from the tank to the carb and see if you get fuel, then bypass only the fuel selector and see if you get fuel then bypass only the fuel strainer and see if you get fuel. Process of elimination.

No. Get the correct part.

Is it the fuel sensor that is at top of the fuel, does it monitor the tank pressure, how do you check to see if it's functioning correctly. Will it cut off power to ski, if it builds up to much pressure

 

[mikidymac]

There is no fuel pressure sensor. There is nothing that will cut power.
The only thing in the tank is the fuel level sensor that is just a float and a circuit board. It has nothing to do with fuel delivery, power or the ski running.

How can I get air out of oil lines.

The oil pump has a bleed fitting on the top. You unscrew it to let air out and when you see oil come out of the bleed, close it back up.

Do you know where I can get thar guide

You have a blockage or leak somewhere. Test each component in the fuel circuit. I did this with a Maddox pressure/vaccuum tester. Start with looking at your fuel filter...is it filling when you crank the ski over?

The circuit is pretty simple to understand:



Since it sat for 2 years, there is likely gunk at the petcock which sends fuel out to fuel filter. When the petcock is shut off, fuel just sits in the line and dries up creating gunk and blockage.

Start with my post which lists a date of 06/22 and you may want to scroll back to cleaning the fuel petcock, which after cleaning, I would also pressure test to make sure it's in good working order as well.
