Posted a thread up here last week about my 2005 f40 yammy not wanting to start. Took the boat to the shop last friday, they have put new jets in the carbs, cleaned them, and they have synchronized the carbs. They just called me and asked me if i had done anything to the motor in the past, which i replied with no. Its still cranking rough and cuts out. If any of you guys have any suggestions, im all ears.

Those guys need to troubleshoot to identify the problem, Then start cleaning and replacing parts....it could get expensive for you, and you still got your problem! Good Luck and keep us posted!

sad to say, but not many competent EFI mechanics out there.

Is fuel squirting out of the accelerator pump tubes into the carbs when you operate the throttles?

When they did the carbs. Did they drill out the brass plug for the mixture screw?
