I recently got a YM1700, I am having an issue with it. Using compression release, it will start. It takes about a minute to start, including letting the starter cool. When it does finally fire, it runs wildly. I have to open the compression release to keep it from going straight to 3,000+ RPM. I pulled the inspection cover from above the pump, and at closed throttle, the rack cannot move forward anymore. I removed the injector lines from the pump, and there is fuel spurting out of the #2 (rearward) outlet, and none at all from #1. I have looked at the internals of the pump and they seem to be in alignment. Tractor was free, so I'd rather not drop over $300 for a new pump if it can be repaired.
