Is it a lift pump? Not sure if it’s the same as the 200 but there’s a aftermarket that’s better then stock! I will get the part number ASAP.

Awesome Neil, where did you get that? have you ever replaced the other pump? there's a lift pump and high pressure no? I thought the round one was the lift, and that square one is high pressure?

That was the round one in the VST aluminum case or the square external one?

HP pump puts out 30PSI and is mixing with oil... replaced the plugs, checked wires/coils... still nothing. going to try an ECM out of another one, any other ideas? what about reeds?

How many hours? Could be the reeds. I hear when they become hard staring it’s the reeds, so maybe no start it’s the case to. They say the reeds should last 300hrs.

So it has spark, correct? Have you tried pulling a couple easy plugs spraying gas in the cylinder and trying to start? If it won't fire on that your timing must be the problem. Doing this will tell you if its fuel, air or ignition.

the power head was replaced about 30hrs ago and new reeds went in. if the reeds are bad, would it have compression?

it has spark, we put fuel in a few holes at the same time and it didn't even bark... ECM swap? is there a dealer that's familiar with these Sport Jets around Edmonton?

Reeds would not effect compression. Unless they fell apart and destroyed the motor. Best sport jet mechanics would probably be Gibbons motor sports, I think they sell lots of boats wth the sport jets.

Ya, I would say a timing issue, could be ecm its worth a try if its a simple swap from a friend. A timing light should tell you something. I've heard of stator problems on the 175
