I’ve looked through the manual and finding conflicting info. I’ve put a rubber seal around end of jet pump like my 98 GTX, but it won’t allow the pump to fit into the pump shoe. So the manual shows putting a layer of “Great Stuff” to make a seal? One pic shows a neoprene gasket but I don’t...

I rebuilt the starter in March(bought new battery) and everything cranked and ran great. This week I went to get it ready for the lake and when I got my two beeps I hit the start button a small cloud of white smoke came from my starter. I hit start again and low battery light came on and my...

My question is what are these vents for and what prevents water intrusion when backing ski off the trailer?

I picked up another 98 GTX. Has 150 compression, beeps twice when I put key on Dess post. Gauges aren’t working(or that’s another issue), I I can jump solenoid and it turns over, can verify spark on each cylinder. I have 12 volts on battery side of the solenoid, and 12 bolts at the yellow red...

Checking all of my check valves and the hose from front of rave solenoid ties into fuel tank check valve up front. The rear hose goes to a metal check above the impeller. I could blow through it both ways. Is this normal or should it be one way also?

I’ve rebuilt 717 and 787 pumps but this is my first time with an 851. The pump housing has 2 set screws in top and bottom of pump. I took the pump apart three times thinking I had crushed the thrust washer. It’s the set screws. If I tighten them down the impeller binds on the wear ring. Without...

Does anyone know how many yards of marine vinyl it would take to cover a 2000 Gtx millennium edition front seat and yards for the rear seat? Thanks

I pulled the motor and marked all the hoses. I see this nipple near rear of motor by the starter. Can anyone tell me what hose connects here? I looked at the service manual diagrams and could never find it. Thanks

I have the motor on the bench. New top end. I don’t have the Reed valves installed, temp sensor in head, exhaust or intake. Can I jump the starter and get an accurate compression?

I’ve always been able to install piston circlips with a small screwdriver and fingernails. We’ll on a 951 I can’t get the outside circlips installed. I bought the OEM Seadoo tool but have no idea how to use it. Does anyone have any pointers?

Local pick up. All paperwork. Needs fuel lines replaced, fuel selector, carbs rebuilt, oring on fuel filter. Previous owner used the correct oil, beeper works, all gauges work, wear ring and impeller look great. Compression is spot on. Should be easy to get running by the spring. Cleanest used...

Wear ring went out on my Seadoo this weekend. Ordered a new one from OSDparts, two small orings and large nose cone Oring. Drained all the old pump Oil overnight. After installing wear ring the impeller can freely spin. I didn’t crush the thrust washer(I have done once). I installed the foam...

1997 GTX. Does anyone know the size of the small set Allen screw that holds the choke cable in the two brass barrels?

I’ve ordered the base cylinder gasket from several vendors only to received a cancelled order the next day. It’s part#420931404 or old part #290931402. Where is everyone obtaining this gasket? Trying to finish a top end. Thanks

Picked up a 2000 Kawasaki Ultra 150 on single Shorelander trailer and a 1995 Seadoo XP on a double galvanized trailer for $400. Did a quick clean to removed 5 years worth of sitting under trees in someone's backyard. Both skis came with owners registration and titles on the trailers. I had to...
