Steve,Jan :

Thanks for the advice! Today after work I am going to the boat and
try to bleed the injector pump via the front plug,per Steve's
recommendation. If that doesn't work I'll remove the injector pump
and inspect the spring/bushing regulator assembly for corrosion. If
this does not do the trick I'll breakdown and get a pro to check it
out.

Once again thanks for the advice.

Best Regards

Reading the discription of not having any fuel come out of the pump,
have you checked the fuel shutoff that normally kills the engine. I
had the problem of not being able to bleed the injectors. I
finally solved it by removing the shutoff cable from the injector pump
lubricated the shutoff lever on the pump and made sure that it was
moving freely. I bled the injectors with the cable off and only
reconnected the cable when all was working well.

Good luck
