Fresh 525s. Priming fuel?
 
Just put two fresh 525s back in my topgun. For some reason they aren’t getting fuel. I’m sure it’s something stupid, but any input would be greatly appreciated.

boat has half tank of fuel
brand new fuel pumps
brand new everything actually lol

Have you pressed in on the shrader valve on the fuel rail?
See if it needs bleeding air pressure off to move fuel

When I redid my whole fuel system in my boat I had to run the fuel pump and at the same time pressurize the tank by taking an air hose and a rag and blowing air in the vent for the fuel tank....blast of air for 20-30 seconds it picked up a prime right away and never had to do it again....may want to try that...could just be air bound and needs a little help getting fuel to the pump

I will try this. We did pressurize the tank to make sure fuel fuel cane through the line. But not will connected

air lock and too much wear on the internal fuel pumps. ----

one of the best tools a boater can have who works on their own boats and for cheap. You use it min 2 times per year. The red remote gas tank and primer bulbhttps://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...99e652c1aa.jpg

Thanks for all the responses. New injectors did the trick
