    2003 bf225 fuel issues

    Hey guys, got an 03 bf225. It currently is having fuel issues. Background: brought it to a mechanic for an oil leak problem, thought it to be shift shaft seals, ended up being a crack in the case. Had whole case replaced, motor mount, shift seals, had exhast tubes changed while power head was out, fuel filters, high and low pressure, water pump while lower unit was out, and a few other items that were replaced. Finally got it back after a 2month wait, took it out, got 100yrds and it stalled out, messed with a little, pumped primer bulb, got it to run a little but not consistently. Fuel definitely is not filling up in the low pressure filter more than a 1/2" or so. Definitely have a fuel problem, just not sure where to start. Has to be related to work done, as it ran beautiful before. I can take it back to them, but at hr and 45min away and how slow they move on things would definitely be end of my season in the northeast. Spent a ton of money and frustrated as hell, any help would be appreciated.

    Update : took side cover off and pulled back the corrugated line hide tube and found that the service center that did the work ran the fuel line over top of the hold down bracket, instead of underneath , which was pinching the fuel line. Rerouted it and it worked beautiful today. Hopefully this helps someone else. Thanks

    Glad to heat it was another simple solution.
