I like everything about your comment. I'll rebuild because now I have all fall, winter and spring. I remember now why guy wouldn't take my motor as a core. He said its because SBT flap wheels the mating and gasket surfaces.

Thank you. There's a guy selling a 96 GTX for $800 not far from me. Video shows it running out of the water. In all fairness though, so did mine lol. My 2 options at this time are trying a rebuild on my current motor, or buying that 96 gtx and swapping the motor.

Thank you for watching the video. I'll be pulling the motor to tear it down.

Please ignore the youtube sub thing on the video. I had no idea that would be on there. Also, I meant to say "PTO side" not mag.

A quick video I made of the seadoo after the carbs were taken off. Let me know what you guys think. Thanks!

I hope it didn't fail. I bench tested it when I primed my new oil lines, and it worked perfectly. I also bolted it up and turned the motor over without the plugs in to make sure the oil was making it through the fittings on the intake. I had a friend hit the start button while I held the pump...

I fully cleaned and rebuilt the carbs with a mikuni kit. Pop off pressure tested in spec, and leak test passed. Both low and high speed setting were set to a 1997 GTX according to the seadoo shop manual. The carbs before rebuild were all sorts of off.

There's so much to learn here. On one hand I'm telling myself that the plug was a little wet on the pto cylinder, so it was running rich. Cylinder compression was 170 (tested before my 10 minutes run). On the other hand it possibly ran lean at one point. I corrected it as best I could, but the...

I'll pull the jugs off tomorrow and take a small video. It's not costing me anything to tear it down and investigate, so I don't mind. Do you know what happed with the pto cylinder head and top of piston? I read that it could be caused by water. Like I basically had a steam engine lol.

It had 170 compression on both pto and mag cylinders before I put it in the water. After the loud noise, I pulled the rave valves and noticed the pto side rave had chipped. Spark plug on the mag side was burning perfect, pto side looked a little wet. I turned the pto by hand without the plugs...

Purchased this beautiful 1998 gtx rfi back in April. Seller started it right up for me. Me only owning 1 xp prior didn't really know what I was supposed to be looking for. I got it home and started fixing the small oil leak coming for the oil pump. Then I realized things just don't look right in...
