I have run out of ideas,went out on my brothers ski, hit a piece of wood,brought in to beach,rolled over on left side to check bottom,righted ski,started and died after about 6 seconds,let sit and will start and die over and over,checked fuel pickups,tried reserve,checked fuel filter then cranking overfilled filter quickly,seems like fuel pump is working,removed carbs,cleaned screens,fuel pump diaphragms are ok,valves in pump looked ok,needles and seats are working,when it fires up, it is on both cylinders so it makes me think I still have a fuel delivery problem,it has had spark every time I checked it,any help would be greatly appreciated!

get a can of carb cleaner start ski when it starts to die spray some in the carbs see if it trys to stay running? this will tell you fi its fuel? nowyou say pumps working?pull the line where it goes into carb get a jar crank it over see if your getting fuel? if not try it on reserve see what happens no fule then by pass the fuel switching valve see if it pumps? if not youll have to take the fuel ass.out of tank theres a check valve on the line going to the switching valve having said all that if the pump is working and spraying carb cleaner into carbs and it trys to stay running somethings up with the carbs i hope this helps

thanks for the reply,I will be checking this out when I can get to where it is stored,seemed odd that it ran great until I rolled it onto its left side for around a half hour, thought it might have been something simple!
