    Water control valve bellows 420260721

    Could use some quick advice on temporary fix and replacement for a leaking water control valve bellows on a 96 GTX. I'm on vacation and called dealers who need to order over 10 days. I see parts on ebay for new replacements but shipping over holiday weekend. Would someone like Westside Power...

    Nujet impeller 121-035-0701

    I have a jet pump for my 96 gtx that came with a Nujet impeller 121-035-0701. The impeller and wear ring are in good shape with about 0.4-0.5mm clearance. The pump holds pressure when I checked it. Anyone know anything about this impeller or have experience using it? I believe it is for a 96...

    Replacements for jet pump cone o-ring 293300011

    Has anyone found an aftermarket or local hardware store replacement for this expensive o-ring? I measured an old one and I think it is 50mm OD x 45mm ID x 2.5mm thick.

    Jet pump shaft seal question

    I have learned the hard way to pressure test the jet pump after changing the oil. My question is how often should the seal for the impeller shaft be changed? If the bearings spin smoothly and you don't feel excessive play, there is no indication of water intrusion and the pump passes the...

    Carbon ring inspection and replacement

    I want to inspect and replace (if needed) the carbon seal and ring seal carrier (hat) to get rid of cavitation on hard acceleration from stand still on my 96 GTX. I had previously inspected the impeller clearance, condition, wear ring and installed a neoprene seal. I also tried tightening the...

    96 GTX compression test results advice needed

    I just ran a compression test before winterizing my ski. I pulled both plugs out, put the wires on the grounding posts, had the throttle fully depressed while cranking. I got 155psi on the MAG cylinder and 107psi on the PTO. The ski ran fine all summer, just a little hard starting in the water...

    whine from rear of 96 GTX

    Hello. I just started the season and noticed a mild whine from behind when cruising at 5000 rpm on my 96 GTX. Seems to be rpm dependent. Do not hear it at idle or other speeds. Do not feel any abnormal vibrations. Before I launched it I did a lot of normal maintenance. I greased the PTO fitting...

    Help with 96 GTX died under WOT, started and died again

    I was debugging a no spark problem and changed the CDI to a spare I tested this spring and it started up. The battery was low from a lot of cranking trying to debug the no spark problem. Took it for a test ride and was running WOT and it was like the key was pulled from the post. I thought it...

    Inline oil filter construction

    I noticed my inline oil filter is installed backwards (arrow to the tank) and has been that way for at least two seasons I have owned it. It appears to be a standard filter (275000051, 275000262) and has not caused any issues. Has anyone ever opened one up to see how it is constructed internally...
