anyone? to those of you who have a 240, can you confirm that this smoke is not normal? I really would appreciate any help - thanks again

Continuing on this thread now that summer is back. Still no fix. Most recently a new boat mechanic tried rebuilding my fuel pump and replacing the diaphragm?... 2.5 hours of labor including their test run. Again, before this I and the mechanic confirmed that oil pump is at correct hash mark. I...

I believe that its correct, but just in case I will take a picture this upcoming weekend and post it. Anything else I can check in the meantime? Also, does anyone have a breakdown of how to remove the injectors? Is it a big job?

So I have now checked the compression (130 across all cylinders) as well as confirmed that the TPS is operating exactly within the specified range, as well as smoothly. My marina is threatening to kick me out the smoke is so bad. As I said, the longer I am at or near idle the worse it gets. Even...

Hi All, What’s the best way to drain my two stroke oil on my 2001 speedster 240 efi? I put some of the mercury premium plus synthetic blend two stroke oil in (in the black bottle, picture attached), and noticed that it’s been smoking more than the quicksilver normally does - is that possible...

Thanks for the heads up on the seafoam, I definitely wont be using it. Also, the SN off my engine is OE387171

Thanks for the info and update of the manuals. I completely forgot the video this weekend as I was a bit pressed for time when I got the boat in the water. I’ll have time to take one this upcoming weekend. Also, is there any truth to this running Seafoam through the engine thing? Or just another...

Checked the throttle position sensor... perfectly within range. Going to check the fuel pressure next, just ordered a gauge. Dumb question, where is the VST? Just took a quick peek in the engine compartment and couldn't find the valve. Also, going to have the injectors serviced at the end of the...

Also, am I missing something in the manual section or is there nothing for the 2000 and 2001 mercury motors (shop manual)? I only see the 2002..

Hey Tim, how do you check injector pressure? And how would you correct it if it’s off? Is that something that is fixed by having the injectors serviced? And do you know the cost associated with servicing injectors/a reputable company that does that? Thanks, Thomas

anyone? update? did this correct the smoking issue?

Ah, thanks for the clarification on the engine version. And funny I know I cant trust it at all, but my speedo only shows 4-5mph at 2k rpm (I know this means nothing). Was I correct on the procedure of testing the unit? "I am planning to check the TPS this weekend with a volt/ohm meter and a...

Not sure if this helps, but check out my Avatar if you were looking for a simple option. I got my tower from Big Air for around 1k and wired and installed myself. Not too bad but will def take a whole weekend. Let me know if you need more pics

Thanks for the info Dr Honda. Yes, I would say that it is smoking too much - I will get a video this weekend when I am out on the water. Also, as for the cracking of the throttle, that really doesn't help the issue. Even if I cruise through a no wake zone at 2200-2300 rpm it will still be...

First off, I would like to thank everyone on this forum as I have done a ton of trial and error after reading the available posts/threads on this exact topic. I have a 2001 seadoo speedster with 240 EFI. The oil tank is on the port side of the engine if that helps determine which engine version...
