I have a 2010 Stingray with a 3.0L Volvo non fuel injected. Its has the Demon carb.
At the end of last season i went to winterize it and cranked it to start adding the antifreeze to cooling system and could not get it to fire. I used starter fluid and could get it to turn over so I figured maybe it was the fuel filter and i was planning on changing that anyways before this season so i just didn't stress it.
Did all my routine maintanence yesterday (gear oil, engine oil, impeller, FUEL FILTER, and plugs) and still wont fire. I dont see any gas in the lines and i pulled the fuel filter out after i cranked it for a minute and it was bone dry. Is it possible my mechanical fuel pump is bad after only 2 seasons? I've probably got 200 hrs on it but i figured it would last longer than that.
Please help, I really dont want to pay 120 bucks an hour to have a shop trouble shoot this thing when i can replace the entire fuel system for 500.
