    2001 Seadoo Utopia 185 200HP cavitation at low speed

    Thanks for your reply. Old fluid was an green in stator ( but I replaced at beginning of season) . Boat was winterized after working on impeller. As I don't think there is a bearing in the stator, so instead I was thinking about the bearing in the front ( see attached pix part #16, but this...

    no idea where to begin

    I have a 2001 Utopia 185 with 200 SFI Optimax; mine is 2 stroke : yours is probably 4 stroke , but essentially the same concept. If freshwater , no draining necessary ; no pink antifreeze needed if saltwater ; then flush with a hose after each use . Connect hose to the inlet - upper right ...

    2001 Seadoo Utopia 185 200HP cavitation at low speed

    Hi - I cleaned/ polished and removed burrs from the impeller and replaced, but still have a noise ( albeit on dry land) which sounds like something is loose . Can you take a listen to this video and tell me what you think the noise is from ?

    Fuel pump replacement

    The lift pump is easy to replace. if failing, the lift pump cannot lift enough fuel to supply the needs of the engine and stalling will occur at high speeds. Comes with the small brass inline filter as well. good luck !

    Fuel pump replacement

    I replaced both the fuel lift pump and the low pressure fuel pump on my 2001 Utopia 185 200HP since the boat would bog down at high throttle.... worked like a charm. see attached pic 1. low pressure fuel pump ( hangs vertically starboard side) : Automotive Authority LLC Electric Fuel Pump for...

    2001 Seadoo Utopia 185 200HP cavitation at low speed

    My 2001 Seadoo Utopia 185 200 HP seems to have vibration or cavitation only at low speeds ( 5 to 10 mph). Runs great at 10-35+ MPH and can shoot out of hole with tubing no problem. Engine runs fine. I pulled the impeller and it only has a few minor dings ( see attached) and the wear ring looks...
