bogging

My seadoo starts perfectly, i cleaned carbs at the beginning of the summer. I took her out on the water a few times no issue. Over the 4th of July weekend she started having this issue. When I give her gas she revs but feels bogged down and just has no go in her. If i turn the handlebars to the...

Been fighting this unit all summer, and I am about ready to throw in the towel and scrap it. At this point, the engine will start and run fine on the trailer (no hesitation, no bogging), but on the water it bogs badly at and above 1/3 throttle, in fact the RPM does not increase at all through...

Hey i’ve got a problem with my xp bogging down under full throttle and its hard to start. When under full throttle and it boggs down i pull and release the choke lever for 1-2 seconds and then it revs up again but quickly boggs down again. Is this the carbs or the fuel delivery? (My spark is...

So I took the ski out the other day, everything was running fine for about 40 mins. on the lake. It then started bogging at half throttle and wouldn't go over 20mph. RPMs also skyrocket to 6-7k. It was pretty choppy out there and took a beating. Initially, I thought it was something with my fuel...

Hello All, New ski owner here. Bought this ski and went through did basic tune up cleaned fuel filter, changed oil injection filter, changed spark plugs, replaced starter relay. Running full tank of non-ethanol premium and seadoo mix oil. Took the ski out on the lake the other day and after...

Had my 96 XP on the lake today and about 5-10 mins after putting in, the engine suddenly bogged down and would only move roughly 5mph. I played with the throttle a bit and about 10-20 seconds later it was up and running again like nothing happened. About 5 minutes later the same issue occurred...

Just bought this 97 Challenger 1800 and put it on the water for the first time last night. Twin 787 Rotax's. Dropped it in the water and took it a few hundred yards up and down the river to make sure everything was going to run okay. Picked up the family from the dock and helped friends load...

Hi Folks.. I am beside myself on this one... I have a 99 gtx rfi... ran great for about 2 hours, with a friend on the back, did not go very fast as the total weight was pretty much close to the limit and while up on plane, started to wander back and forth.. so kept it simple... got back to...

After running decent for the last few years I once again have an issue with not being able to run anything over 5,000 rpm. The forum has been a great resource in the past & wondered if you might come to my rescue again. Sequence of events & symptoms below. I cleaned (but did not rebuild)...

Hey Guys, I had my 92 Xpi On trailer in water to make sure the new starter i put in was working. When started I accelerated it a little to see how idle was and i noticed it was bogging not all the time but a few times it did. And its pushing out more smoke then ive noticed before now, I did...

I have owned this ski for the past several years. Every summer it either gives me a fantastic day at the lake or a headache. Ran the ski for about 1/2 hour through wakes at about 2 thirds throttle. When I reached a protected area where the lake was fairly flat I ran at about 1/3 throttle. I...

Hello All, Long time member, first time posting. I have always been able to get answers from the forum by searching. Very good forum. But this is a first time that I think I know what I need to do but need bit knowledge support in the background. Needed access to manuals (service, parts) and...

Noticed my ski is having some sort of a fuel issue recently. When I first drop it in the water it will do 30-40mph then after one good speed run it seems to bog and not want to do more than 20mph. I replaced the spark plugs, put a fuel system cleaner in and fresh gas and it is still doing...

i have a 1996 GTX, i just rebuild carbs, replaced fuel lines, new wear ring, and refurbed impeller....... anyways it seems as if ever since i redid the carbs that it has been not running exactly right. I though it was too rich on the oil pump so i set that properly but now it still bogs on hard...

I obtained a 01 RX that had been sitting for about 3 years. It was missing the carbs and head pipe after it put new carbs and head pipe on I took it out for a spin. It's a little difficult to start the first time but after that I don't have any issues. It runs fine until about 2500 RPMs then I...

I have a 2 1997 seadoo gtx's. I have an issue with one of them.. When I accelerate, the seadoo Boggs down from 6000rpm to 4000rmp. And when it gets warmed up.. It won't rev past 4000 rpm. I went 2 miles off shore the way there it ran ok but on the way back we had to go 10mph. Once in awhile the...

A friend of mine has a 99 gtx limited. The ski is really clean but in the water it will not get up to speed. It will act like it wants to take off but won't go very fast. I removed the fuel rail and cleaned the injectors but that didn't help. Also changed the oil and plugs. Just wondering if...

I took my 97 XP out to the river yesterday and ran it. It ran great for about 3 hours and I had no problems from it. On the way back to the boat ramp it started skipping at around 3/4 throttle and eventually wouldn't even get on a plane. It idles fine but when you give it throttle it feels like...

Had a slow leak in the engine compartment 5 years ago; A dealers service department claimed it was bad water regulator (on the 2nd service call); They replaced it which led to melting of exhaust hose & engine compartment flooding (I don’t go to that dealer anymore). Not sure what they did...

Hi guys, this is my first post here, although I have been stalking this site for over a year now. I am the very happy owner of a 97 GSX with the rotax 787 that has seen all types of riding with great results. I race motocross and am very picky with maintenance, so it has been rewarding to keep...
