Fuel is coming into both inlet hoses to pumps but only 1 hose has fuel coming out.
How strong should fuel be coming out?
It ran great the prior week but now it wont start.

They both should be pumping about the same. Are you sure that its just not a dirty carb? They have 2 pumps to be sure the machine always has fuels so one pump should allow it to run.

it could be plugged, I would take it apart and check. Or it needs to be rebuilt.

Appreciate that, I have read that they rarely go bad but maybe I need to replace or rebuild both of them

it possible, usually when they go bad they dont pump, sounds like it could be plugged but its cheap enough to rebuild

The strange thing is, it ran the week before and it ran great....

Doesn't take much for something to crawl out of the tank and into someplace it doesn't belong. We bought a skidoo last year that had been sunk, the fuel pump was full flakes of crap that were floating around the tank. Flushed everything out, its run fine since.
