Default 1997 Superjet Wont Start

Hey guys, my first post here and I'm a newbie to stand ups so bear with me.

I took my Pro-Tec exhaust off to powdercoat it and had to remove just about everything around it to get access to it. This included the fuel tank. I've got it all back together now and went to start it and I am not getting fuel. I verified I have spark, but no fuel. Does this system have to be manually primed? If so, how do I do that?

Also, I would like to verify that I have all of my water lines hooked up to the exhaust correctly. Can someone show me a diagram of where they are all supposed to go?

Thanks in advance,
Chris

Welcome to the forum! I have had to manually prime my Blaster and WaveJammer after sitting for the off season and drained. I take a squeeze bottle and fill the lines with premix going from the tank to the carb. Squirt a little premix down the carb and start it up. Once the motors running the fuel system will burp itself.

I ended up covering the intake boot and running the starter motor. I did this for only a few seconds and it fired right up. The suction from the pistons draws 100% fuel and no air in. The guy I bought this ski from told me about this technique. Thanks Jason Smith!
