I have a 2002 Yamaha 60hp 2 stroke motor that I can not get started. It has been running perfectly fine since I have owned it for the last 3 years. I have replaced the spark plugs gas tank fittings and pump(ball), hoses, drained the carbs and cleaned them, and it will not get going. It cranks but will not turn over. If I spray started fluid in there it will start but will not stay running. Any input helps!

Have you been able to verify that your getting fuel to the carburetors? Maybe there's a problem with the fuel pump.

Hope you get it figured out soon, keep us updated and good luck.:)

Maybe check the simple/obvious like that emergency stop lanyard clip, primer bulb, fuel tank vent, etc.....

Did you install the new primer bulb with the arrows in the right direction?...
