Hello,

I have 2001 225 ficht ram bought it last spring.

Engine run like charm but it is hard to star after not used 2-3 weeks.
Also if you stop it warm it will not start at first.
Saturday need start 5-6 times before it stay running.

Noticed that if pump manual pump in fuel line it will help it start and stay running.
When it stays running it will not stall. But after start it runs only 550-600rpm and it seems
no cold start program what keeps it higher rpm when just started.

It it like it will not get enought fuel in starting.
battery is new big and +900A start current, engine cranking well.

What could be ?
if anyone has any thoughts it will be appreciated !

Contaminated fuel? (I'm on a water-in-fuel or in electricals kick, given the humidity around here this summer.)

Need to get with someone who has the software and check the CPS. Need to make sure it syncing up . Also the start capacitor(big blue thng) next to EMM will cause this also
