1998 gsx limited. New fuel lines, carbs cleaned and rebuilt two seasons ago, raves cleaned and rebuilt this year.

98 seadoo gsx lim with all fuel lines replaced, carbs rebuilt, filters replaced, raves cleaned and rebuilt, and spark plugs read a light brown. Last season the last ride all of the sudden I went from 67k rpm's to 6400 rpm's. So at the start of this season I looked at the raves and noticed oil...

I can't find the stock setting for the water valve on my 98 gsx lim. Anyone know what it is supposed to be? Right now the raves are out and the water box is in but the book says the raves should be all the way in? It just says the war box is set at the factory and not to touch. Trying to see if...

98 gsx limited. After riding 15-20 minutes there is about 2 inches of water in the hull. Enough that I have to lift it and drain it. I have already read the post on the siphon tubes (and will be checking that). I have taken the seat off and ran it in the water on the lift. I don't see where the...

On my 98 gsx the plastic housing that has the trim and start button doesn't line up with the plastic housing that covers the rest. Any ideas? Or how can I measure to see if its due to bent bars? I have seen a few ski's without all the plastics and a new front pull throttle, are there any threads...

98 gsx limited. What upgrades are available to improve performance? I have searched but since its an older ski after market doesn't seem to have anything.

Have my 98 gsx and wanted to know what rpm's I should hit ?Normally 6500 but I thought it should be closer to 7k? I just rebuilt the carbs and need to tune some but wanted to see what else. I have not done a compression test yet but when I got it 2 seasons ago they had been 135 and I don't...

Have a 97 gti the grey lines have been changed, carbs cleaned and rebuilt, filters changed. Starts and idles fine, low speed runs fine. When you go past 5000 rpm and head to wot it goes for a second like it wants to take off the just dies. Spark plug tips are a light grey color. I have not...

98 Seadoo gsxl with a little over 100 hours on it. At what point should I start planning on an engine overhaul? I am not bad with a wrench but have never cracked open the bottom end on an engine. I dont need it now, the ski is running and when I got it the compression was ok. I want to be...

97 GTI New fuel lines Cleaned selector switch cleaned internal fuel filters pressure tested the fuel pump and it is ok checked the pop off pressure and the psi got to 24 then let out checked all the lines to make sure they are tight checked carb bolts to make sure they are tight...

Read so many things on this I am now confused...and need to make sure my thinking is right. The water valve is set opposite the Rave Valve aadjustment? I cleaned my Rave Valves and they had been screwed all in and I set them flush with the black cap. I didnt mess with the water valve though. I...

97 GTI that has had all the fuel lines changed, fuel selector is clean, and I pulled the carb off today and cleaned the internal filter (which wasnt that bad), and replaced the plugs. Started on land with an idle of 2560 which I know is a bit low so I wanted to get it in the water and let it...

This is my 98 GSX Limited before I started to work on the oxidation/faded paint: You can see where a logo or graphic sat in the sun I used 3m super duty rubbing compound and a terry cloth towel to start working on it and this was after only a few minutes of working in circles. After...

Anyone know if I can get a new oil tank for my 98 GSX Limited that is one piece? I think there is a seam leak and have already tried to seal a seam in a 97 GTI that didnt hold up. I would rather get a whole new tank that doesnt have a seam. Thanks:cheers:

So I got my 98 GSX Lim in the water today after getting the carbs off, cleaned, rave valves cleaned, new plugs installed, and the blockage removed of the right side pee hole. Ski ran good and sounded better BUT (and this could be ignorance on my part) how hot should the water be when going out...

98 GSX Lim both in the water and out the right pee hole in the back doesnt have any water coming out. I slid some wire in to try and clean it out but I would like to trace it back and take it off to clean it out all the way. When I look for the tube it is blocked by the MPEM so hard to see which...

Wanted to hear if this sounds right to those with more knowledge than I. I have a 12 V low code that still comes up on my ski and I have already tested the electrical system and everything seems fine and I have had the same battery in all season and its not dead. The code came up when my neg...

Last week I put new plugs into my 98 GSX Limited (Red/Purple) and gapped them to spec. Now this is the only thing I have done to it since the last time I had it in the water over the 4th of july weekend and now it bogs down around 5400 rpms and wont go any higher without the surging jerking and...

98 GSX Limited and I bought a new oil filter and cant get to the filter to change it. Is there any tricks to getting to it? I can see it but the exhaust manifold is in the way (as normal) and I cant get my hand in there to get to it. Not sure if there is another way to get to it.

98 GSX Limited and have made some changes but noticed this ski's engine is alot louder than other ski's I have been on. It runs good just seems to make a ton of noise and sounds like something is wrong or is that what I have heard and read is normal?
