utopia - 240 efi issues

[jimmy2litre]

I took my new (used) utopia out and had several issues... I was left stranded - my tether came off by accident when I was doing around 50 mph and then the engine wouldn't start... about an hour earlier, we ahd stopped for a bit and the engine had a tough time starting as well.... turns over, plenty of spark, could hear the fuel pump, could smell fuel, so I was stuck... buddy of mine came to rescue me and he checked the tether - it was ok... then checked the schrader(sp?) valve and it did not have fuel... I then turned the key and fuel came through, engine started and problem solved - for now.... is this a fuel pump issue?... what would have caused what seemed to be an air pocket in the fuel?... was this a fluke?...

As well, not sure if related, but when travelling at higher rpm's, when I turn right, the steering seemed resistant and the rpm's went down?????...

that can't be right but what in the heck could that be????

any thoughts would be appreciated...

Yes when you turn right boat will die down and it will rev up turning left . Why don't know but my utopia does the same.
