Pull the sqaure cover off side off carb prolly easyer to pull carb and clean it out

I would have to say carb rebuild. It is always good to replace the insides anyways. Check the vacuum lines for the carb also for any cracks. I had an issue with not getting enough fuel and I found out by blowing through the fuel intake side of the carb to see if it comes out the return side. I know the kits are pretty cheap to rebuild them. Make sure to replace the screens also. Easy one hour fix at most.
 
hey, im having a similar problem, my superjet will fire up just fine on and off water, while going slow speeds it runs well, but when i go to stand up on the ski, and go to higher rpms it instantly just dies, but will fire back up and continue to do the same, i really want to ride it , and any help would be great. its been like this since i bought it used on clist. also i did rebuild the carb, all parts except for the section that is in about the middle of the carb and has two phillips head screws holding the top in place, that would not give and i did not want to mess them up. thank you

A couple of easy things to check...

1. Do you have your coupler cover on? If not it acts like a sprinkler inside your hood and gets water in the carb.
2. Have you checked for water in your gas tank... Easy to check... Put a siphon hose at the bottom of the tank and siphon about 16 oz or so out of the tank into a clear plastic water bottle... You'll be able to see the water if it's there.

Id check this before you start pulling apart your carbs.

Update problem fixed re jet carbs and rebuilt replaced all fuel line found that me fuel filter had a crack in it and was leaking fuel and most likely sucking (pic) in air replaced it with two small inline filters. Thanks to all who replied
