maybe where the jetpump mounts to the transom has been damaged? this is also where you mount the plate for the alignment tool and a damaged transom would throw out the ability to use that to align?

before you give up on the mpem make sure you are getting 12v and solid ground to the mpem.....all positive and grounds are clean and have continuity. Even the main plugs/pins into the mpem themselves can generate corrosion which may need to be cleaned or try contact cleaner spray. if you...

if you use this parts site it will help you with lots of these types of questions. This link is for a 1999 Gtx....you did not spec your machine....find the part you are looking for in the drawing and the description is in the table below. Rivamotorsports.com''s 1999 Sea Doo

go here and compare part numbers between the two boats. Rivamotorsports.com''s 1997 Sea Doo

can you trace your line from this parts page? i think you are pointing to the tube that comes off the pipe....cannot zoom in, your resolution is not good. Rivamotorsports.com''s 1997 Sea Doo

try testing your solenoid

wierd that you say it gets stuck....without the plugs in can you grab the pto/driveshaft with just your hand and see if it turns smoothly? you should not feel any sticking.

bridge the solenoid with insulated pliers or screw driver. if the starter runs strong the solenoid is starting to go bad.

unplug the battery before spraying everything and let it dry thoroughly.

i am pretty sure the contact cleaner is non conductive and you can spray it direct into the plug connections. read the instructions but i have read that it is for sensitive electrical components.

i should have added.....what the operators manual suggests for maintenance of the bearing.

maybe see what the operators manual suggests for that bearing. Just a thought....could you drill and tap your own grease zerk? you would need to be careful not to allow the zerk to go too deep and impede the movement of the bearing.

i suggest you get a wiring diagram from both the 94 and 96. look at what signal is coming from each of the wires (the colours on the wires will indicate what the wires do on the wiring schematic) and see whats missing to see if you can power up all three gauges. i have never done what you are...

there is a "fix" for the fuel gauge. search F1 fuse. for the speed sensor disconnect the plug(i believe it runs too the space under the storage compartment under the hood by the steering wheel. Have someone spin the paddle wheel while you do an ohm reading at the plug to see if you get a...
