1995 wet jet with yamaha super jet 701 motor no spark and no fuel to carberatoe

So I just got this old ski and it’s not getting any spark and I’m not sure where to start but I have tested every wire coming out of the cdi box and no power coming out of it at all!! And I was wondering if the csi box controls the fuel pump and oil pump on the ski thanks in advanced

It sounds like you're very new to PWC's. First of all, ANYTHING that's been sitting any length of time will need the WHOLE fuel system gone through. Clean out gas tank, inspect fuel pickup, inspect/replace fuel lines, vacuum test fuel switch, and rebuild the carb. ***Failure to do this on a large 2 stroke WILL result in engine damage if you try to ride it.***

BUT....before you go through any of that, you need to do a compression test so you know if the motor is any good. If the compression is good.... Next, spray a bit of WD40 and a bit of carb cleaner in each plug hole, install spark plugs, crack the throttle open a hair, then crank it. It should light off and run for a second or 2.

Start with the basics and report back.

But the ski turns over fine just no power after the ignition coil as Sym ally and no fuel pumping to it
The starting system and ignition system are totally separate, the only thing they have in common is the lanyard switch inside the start stop switch housing.
The fuel pump works off of crankcase pressure it is not electric, again a whole different and totally unrelated system.
Lets start at the beginning here.
Give us some background on the ski.. how long has it been sitting, when is the last time it ran.
