Hello all and thanks in advance for any help. I just purchased a 95 Yamaha venture and trailor. Ski looks to be in really good shape considering age. It wouldn’t crank so I got it and trailer for pretty decent price ($700). I knew it was getting fire and I could pour gas in spark plug hole and it would crank. The guy said it ran great last season. I figure it was a fuel/carb/fuel pump problem. I took carb off and started cleaning it out. Fuel filters looked fine. It’s the twin carb and when I got to the needle part. One was stuck closed so tight I had to get needle nose to remove. The other was stuck pretty tight but broke loose when I pressed lever arm. I’m hoping this was my problem. They were closed and sealed not letting fuel in. I’m planning to clean them real good and reinstall. All gaskets and diaphragms looked great. Could this be the problem? Is there anything else a novice like me should check before I reinstall?
I ran it long enough to see there was only 160 hours on the dash system and it worked. This sounds like pretty low hours for this year model.
thanks for any help!
