    96’ GTS cutting out/losing power

    My neighbor has a 96 GTS that was running fine just a couple weeks ago, now it’s losing power within about a minute of riding. It’s reduced to about 1/4 the speed. Doesn’t really sound boggy and doesn’t die, will idle just fine and putt at slow speeds. I checked the battery and it read around...

    1997 Seadoo XP MPEM

    Hello, I just picked up a seadoo xp 787 1997 for cheap with a trailer since it was hydrolocking with oil in the PTO cylinder. I was able to get it running today off starting fluid, put it in the water and let it run for a while to burn out the oil. It worked pretty well and the ski restarted...

    '00 Challenger 2000. No electrical working (lights/horn/vent) BUT Motor runs great!

    So, I have a new-to-me 2000 Challenger 2000. The boats runs great, so everything electric around the motor is good (even the bilge pump). However, NONE of the electrical works. I have replaced all of the fuses and even have power to all the switches. The only problem I can find is that I also...

    Reflashing a 2015 Sea Doo GTS 2015... Many Questions

    So I've read some things that led me to believe that the factory chip is limited by the manufacturer. Some people are saying you can reflash this to open the full potential of the watercraft. I have a lot of questions in regard to this topic now: 1. The sites that offer the kit to perform...

    97 GSI Power Issues

    My 97 gsi bogs off while accelerating and maxes out around 4K RPM EXCEPT when I hit a wave with a good jolt and the RPMs then go up to around 5.5+K (which it then appears to be delivering full power). This additional power will last for a second or so (unless I hit another wave). It seems that...

    '96 Speedster Power Issues - Rev Limiter?

    I have had an issue with my port engine this year (2012). When I first start the boat up, seems to run well. It revs up to get me on a plane, which is normal of course. After a while though, I begin to loose some power. Throttle can be all the way up, but still have issues with it. Then...

    1997 GSI - Keeps losing electrical power??

    Hey there... I've tried searching this on past threads with no luck. I have a 97 GSI that randomly keeps losing electrical power. It's only been in freshwater, has approximately 170hrs on it. I've narrowed down to something in the rear electrical box, located near the battery. I would assume...

    How well does '96 challenger tow skiers?

    Hi I'm thinking about buying a 1996 challenger (110hp i believe). I'm wondering if this boat has adequate power to tow skiers and wakeboarders. I've heard a few people mention that this boat is a little underpowered. Is this true? Thanks

    Hey Guys, I am having a problem with one of the engines on my 2005 speedster 200 SC. Either off a start or crusing, every once in a while the right engine goes from sounding good to a loud grinding noise vibrating the entire boat. I lay off on the power, start and stop the boat, wait 5-10...
