No fuel at start

look at your carb too. if you have no fuel squirting, you have no fuel in the bowl.

since your fuel pump is squirting fuel, check your fuel pump pressure. it should be 4-7 psi. however your float could be messed up. should be a holley 2-barrel. about the easiest carb in the world to work on. one touch simpler than a kohler toilet.

my guess is you have crud in the bowl plugging up the accelerator pump circuit.

Thank you. I'm leaning towards carb rebuild as well.

Agree, need a carb rebuild

Thank you. I guess I'll look into doing that. Not sure if I'm capable though, or it needs to go to a shop

Not that hard to do, the hardest part is cleaning. Need some fine wire to clean out the passages. Once clean then adjust per the spec sheet

So problem is solved. Buddy of mine that is a mechanic, and a long time boat guy gave me the solution. He said the float is stuck from sitting all winter. Sooooooo......

Spray sea foam really good down in carb, and give it a minute to soak in. Lightly tap carb with a hammer. Have assistant crank boat while you continue to tap carb with a hammer...... Fired right up. Now I thought it could've just been the sea foam that started, but nope it cranks right up like normal now.

Thank you for all that helped get me floating this weekend
