Can anyone help point me in the right direction for troubleshooting my father's 700 Summit sled? Pulled our little hearts out but it looks like there is no fuel moving around in the altitude compensation system or into the carbs. The fuel tank is full. I couldn't see any blockages anywhere, but the lines are all dry.

Is there a little mechanical fuel pump somewhere to draw fuel up? Where would a guy find the filter in case it is plugged up? Sled ran good before we parked it on the trailer...

Thanks for any help you guys might be able to offer

fallow your fuel line from the carbs back too the tank,,,, you can blow each one out to make sure they are not pluged.... empty the fuel tank and give it a blow back in too the tank,,, maybe give it a rinse to see if there was anything in it....

was it stored on/in the trailer outside? water may have frozen in the fuel pump causing the check valve to freeze closed. try some isopropyl alcohol in the tank or put it in a warm garage overnight and see if it starts.
