    Disconnected exhaust

    So I have a 1997 Seadoo SPX that has been having top end RPM/Speed issues when in water. When out of water I can mash on the throttle and there does not seem like there is an issue, it revs and tops out with the signature 2-stroke sound at top end. When in the water, I have mild acceleration to...

    1996 Spx Shuts off at high Rpms, Stuck at low Rpms, But Runs fine at half throttle.

    I had my 96 Spx on the lake last weekend and it was running great for about 20 minutes, no trouble accelerating or maintaining speed at high rpms. I adjusted the trim a few times and it ran great for another 5 or so minutes and then the engine just died completely, no bogging, just off. It'd...

    1996 GTX - Low RPM (5,400) on Takeoff

    Recently we've noticed that our 1996 Seadoo GTX has lost power on takeoff (and during hole shots). From memory, it seems like when we used to gun it to get on plane it would immediately reach ~7,000 RPM coming out of the hole. Nowadays, 9 times out of 10 it will start off at ~5,400 RPM then...
