I cant get the rhino to start because it doesn't have any fuel pressure. I took the filter out and the spark plug off and tried to turn it over for a while and buil up fuel pressure. I am going to go ahead and put an electric pump in, and the question is what is the fuel pressure on a rhino?

If you run an electric pump you will have to put a regulator on it and set it to about 3.5 lbs. any more and it will bypass the float and run out the overflow.

You didn't mention what year model rhino but I had a buddy with an older rhino having basically the same problem. His was losing prime after setting up a few days. He installed a primer ball in-line (like on an outboard motor gas tank) and all it took was a couple squeezes and he was back in biz. That may be too redneck for ya but it was cheap and worked for him. Good luck!

well got it started, i removed the suction line and poured some gas in it and it started right up. I am still going to install an electric pump. The mechanic from the yamaha place said it takes 42 to43 psi fuel pressure.??? I told him that is is carbed and what I was trying to do. anyways still want to put the pump in and napa said that they had several different pumps, so if anyone knows the pressure let me know.
