    Ok so just got to take it back out and run down that fault code. When it trips Check Engine it does go into limp mode (5400rpmish) and codes are P1509 and P1202. Lake temp was already there and I get a “sensor” warning when I hook the key up so that’s likely what is. P1202 is oil pressure. I...

    Where do I check it, from underneath where the drive shaft goes into the hull? Or from inside the hull?

    Another question. I was looking up under it in the intake, and see that the drive shaft goes into what’s essentially a hole in the hull. Is that correct, or is there supposed to be a seal of some sort there?

    Title shows 2003 also. Now I may be mistaken on revs but to best of my memory it definitely seemed to be over 8k. I’ve been wrong before though.

    When it was rebuilt it may have had a later motor installed or rev limit flashed because it definitely goes over 8k and bounces there when you nail it, I’ll post a clip next time I’m out. I’ll have to check that out about the pump, I was looking under it today and the gap around the impeller was...

    Sorry, I mean it revs to 8k normally. When it tripped the check engine light it went down to 6k. I thought was a little high to be a limp mode but now I’m thinking it was limp mode.

    More reading on the forum makes me think I have an oil pressure sensor issue throwing the code and limp mode and that the lake temp sensor wouldn’t effect engine or performance. (I assume 5-6k limit is limp, I figured it’d be lower) One post said an oil pressure sensor won’t throw a code, is...

    Cool man! I went to Bowen today, I live just down the road. I haven’t gotten the paperwork back on it yet obviously, but called the game wardens office and he said a 20 minute shakedown is fine. Which may have turned into an hour cruise and being late for dinner with friends lol. Only code...

    Definitely came out on top. I had $500 in the airhandler, plus the used condenser, a days labor and probably $100 worth of hardware. For me, the all new mechanicals make it a ridiculous value.

    Shakedown cruise! Ran awesome, the battery was just dead, I left it on charge over night and it did fine all afternoon. Out of the hole, it seems like it’s cavitating, has a similar feeling to a burnout on a motorcycle. The motor immediately revs to 8k and just sits there until it gets up to...

    I talked to the previous owner again today. He bought it from the auction, and when he got it, the engine was mostly gone. So his and my best guess was theft recovery. Either way, the motor is completely redone as is the supercharger. Runs like a top, hoping to go drop it in the lake this...

    Alright just got it home. Went through with the trade, it started up just fine on a battery pack, it’ll need a battery or a charge. It’s a 2003 GTX 4Tec with 291 hours. It has a salvage title, which I can’t figure out. The body has absolutely no damage or repaired damage aside from some scuffs...

    Hi guys! I’m picking up a seadoo 3 seater supercharged tomorrow, I’m not sure the exact model. I’m an HVAC contractor and had a surplus of newer used equipment taken off an apartment remodel and had a guy offer a 4 wheeler and the seadoo for one of them installed. Since I have no cash tied in...
