The Carb's may need cleaning and or rebuilding. The kits are around $30 per Carb. with around an hour per... labor. I know a guy in Qunicy who is great on them... PM me

Going to try a new fuel pump and fuel line this weekend. If that doesn't work he'll have the carbs rebuilt.

Fuel tanks are removable 6 gal tanks

Do the carbs. I had a similair problem this past spring in my Yammi 200. The new ethanol based fuels is probably the source of all of our troubles.

I had a very similiar problem reoccurring on my outbourd. I have a 2003 200 HPDI. The problem was a dirty screen in the VST tank. Cleaned it and it ran fine.....Its a common problem on the HPDI's.
