My motor won't start !!!

[critter]

Motor is a 03 200 ficht the problem I have been having is that if the motor sits for a while when I try to start it it will not fire right away it will try to start but dosnt then I turn the key off and try again with same results when I do get it to run it will be fine all day.. Today I tried to winterize it and I can't get it to run been tryin or 30 min to start it will not go.. I have a video of what it is doing if anyone wants to see if the can help send me ur email I can send it through my phone thanks...

Do you hear the fuel pump run when you turn on the key to pressurize the system?

[critter]

Yes I pumped the bulb figuring the pump was not pumping the gas in to the motor and after a couple more try's it fired but with the cowl off the pump really dosnt sound smooth I'm wondering if it is too weak

Could need a good de-carb. Have you cleaned the exhaust pressure sensor?

[critter]

i did a decarb begining of last year where is the sensor

[Danrude]

Facing the back of the motor, you will see the EMM, on the starbord side you will see the two electrical connectors. Between the connectors is a black hose that runs down to a diaphram, follow it on down and it will connect to the bottom of the engine block. Remove the hose then the fitting, which is the sensor. You will have to remove the starbord side belly pan to get to it.

Danrude, I thought it was on the portside????

[Danrude]

Nope! It is on the starbord side.
