Fuel pump problem on a 2002 trophy 2052

[Bilfishn]

Hi,

I own a 2002 Bayliner Trophy 2052 with a 4.3 V6 2 barrel carburetored Mercruiser engine.

I need some help finding out why my fuel pump while connected to original pump wiring wont work. I was boating with my family at lake mead. After stopping to swim for a while. My boat wouldn't start. I went through all the trouble shooting that I could think of. I then jumped my fuel pump from my Accessories switch. It started but I had to baby the throttle to get it to plane. When I tried to throttle down to get out of the hole it would just stall. Any way I replaced the fuel pump and all the filters. But I can't get it to work with the regular connector. I've looked all over the motor for a fuse but can't find one. Is there a fuse or something else? I'm at my wits end.

Any and all suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Bill

Should plug into a pressure switch, just above and foward of the engine oil filter

Ayuh,... The fuelpump is powered from the Starter as the motor is cranking,+ from the igntion, through the oil pressure switch BD noted when Running...

Could also be the connector itself, run into that a couple times now

Thanks for your response. So along any of those connections is there a breaker or fuse, or do I need to replace them as well?

Thanks again
Bill

Hi Thanks for your reply.

So does that mean that there is a fuse between those connections or do I need to replace the oil sending unit?

Thanks in advance

Ayuh,... It means you follow the Power with a test light, then replace whatever component Isn't passing Power...

Here is the basic wiring diagram for the fuel system. It should help you track down your problem area.
