I installed a Fimco low pressure fuel pump about a year ago in the boat. Always worked great and no issues. Now i go yesterday to get my boat and its not working, my boat has maybe sat a month in a heated garage and I stabalized my fuel. I checked all the connections and just cant figure out why it all off a sudden doesn't work.

did you turn the key? :


is the motor turning over at all? if not... check your battery first and all wires running to it. i have had bad corrosion on mine after being left for a short period of time and the wires wouldnt make a good connection even though they look hooked up

if the motor is turning over, you need to start at the gas tank, check to make sure your line connection is tight, follow your fuel line down to make sure there isnt any dry rot or kinks in the line. prime your bulb, and then pull your choke out and try to get the motor turned over. may want to change your inline fuel filter too just as a precautionary. Also, check your spark plug caps to make sure they are both on tight, and they didnt get pulled loose by something. if it still wont fire, you may want to try fresh gas and pull your carb, clean with carb cleaner, then retry. good luck!

start it with ether and see if it dies out after the ether burns out, or if it will stay running.

actually the motor runs fine been trapping with it for 2 days now. aparently the fuel pump on the motor is keeping up. Ill just take the electic one out completely
