I’ve tried a few cheap oil extractors and am ready to give up and pay what I need to pay. Any suggestions on which one to get?

Thank you.

Just bought it. How do I check engine hours?

Just replaced DESS post and it is still clicking and energizing. I’m installing a small cutoff switch in line to keep the battery from draining. Any other ideas?

All other digitals are fine. Just shows a dash as if it’s not getting data.

Even with lanyard out, fuel pump engages for a second or two and digitals light up. Every 15 secs or so, and drains battery. Thought it may be DESS post, so I unplugged the post, but it still happens. Could it still be the post even though the current one is disengaged completely and it...

I had the same issue and unplugged DESS post. It happens even with it unplugged. Could that still be the issue?

With my ski not running and the key removed, my dash digitals will light up and a whirring sound comes from under the dash. It happens about every ten seconds and lasts a few seconds. It drains my battery overnight. 2006 Wake

My digitals engage every few minutes even when the ski is shut off. Just like I was turning it on. No noise. No beep. Just on and then off. Over the course of a few days it kills my battery. Have you seen this before?

I’m on Lake Greenwood in S.C. Not incredibly savvy but I’ve always been a “what one man can do another man can do” kinda guy.

What’s a good rule of thumb for expected hours/year?

I can't wait to get a PWC and I am thinking of restricting my search to a SeaDoo just because of folks like you in this helpful forum. We recently bought a house on a freshwater lake in SC and have two sons (18 and 16) who I need to introduce to the waterfront life I had (mine was saltwater)...

Greenville, SC. Actually, compared to others I’ve seen the price is really good. Again, it looks like new. He said the engine was filled with oil for storage.

His reason for not riding is I could run it into shallow water and mess it up. That somewhat makes sense to me. Does it seem sketchy to you? We have a shallow clay-bottom lake.
