95 XP 720. Hi. I have the below issue and have never encountered this on my ATV's or Ski's. I did not know I had an issue until I put it into the lake.
Out of Water: Ski is hard to start although will start when gas turned to off position then turning to ON or RES will allow to continue to idle at 3200. Revs fine, idles fine, although hard to start. Also idles fine when connected to water.
In Water: Ski will not start. Must start on trailer then drop into water. Ski will only run about 4500 in water. HOWEVER, quickly shifting fuel switch to OFF then to either ON or RES allows ski to run like it is supposed too for a short period. Once it starts to idle down even at full throttle shifting the fuel switch to OFF then back to ON or RES will allow it to run fine again.
Rebuild Carbs? Clean out fuel lines or gas tank? Leaks?
I am clueless and hope someone else has seen this before.
