well i trailered my jetski to florida for spring break and now that im down here it wont run right. The first time i took off it, ran ok but stalled a couple times while i was out. The next time it would barely stay running. as soon as i would give it gas it would just bog out and stall. it ran perfect when i put it up at the end of summer but now its no good. so basiclly it'll start fine but when i give it gas while its in the water it just boggs out.i took the carb off to clean it out but my tools are kindof limited so i couldnt get the jets out. is that probablly my problem? or what else should i check out?? im goin back home saturday and wanted to ride the surf atleast once while im down here.

Have you checked the plugs?Is your gas new or old?Did you fog your motor when you put it away last winter?

Are you sure it's fuel related and not the salt demon attacking your electrical system ?? Quite common for fresh water riders on vacation in FL.
Try some dielectric grease in your plug boots and your start/stop switch plugs. Unscrew the cap on your electric box and see if it's all dry in there.
What part of FL are you in ?
If you are anywhere near Naples, Ft Myers I have tools and a place to work on the ski.
