Hello! New member here on the forums! I picked up a 99 Regal 1800 LSR with a wake tower and sound system. The previous owner kept in her miraculous condition so it was a good choice for a first boat!
Well after a year of good use (started right up after the winter too) I have come across my first problem. Last week I took her out and just like that she cut off. Now she cranks up but dies after a second or two.
It seems that once the boat has started no fuel is coming through the carb. I have a mechanical fuel pump and after some research replaced the Oil Pressure Sender but still no good. I added 10 gallons of gas too since then and nothing. If I add gas from the top she will run fine.
Any advice on where to start? I have experience working on cars but boats and carbs are new to me. I’m guessing a fuel line is clogged or the carb isn’t working correctly. Thanks!
