it is routed properly.

fuel that does not contain ethanol.

With the boat in the water or a hose and adapter
installed, cycle the key switch ON, then OFF, for
five second intervals 3-4 times before cranking
the engine to allow the fuel pump to prime the
fuel lines.
6. Review boat manufacturer’s starting procedure.
7. Start the engine. If you experience a no-start
condition, do not crank the engine for more than 15
seconds without allowing a two minute cool-down
period. When the engine starts, keep a close watch
on the gauge readings. Check all of the hoses and
drain plugs for leaks. Listen for abnormal noises. Run
the engine long enough to reach normal operating
temperature and reinspect for leaks. If no leaks are
found, the boat is ready for operation.
