Here goes the first post ! My problem is this . I recently bought a 1997 Seadoo XP and was told that the starter needed to be replaced because it seized up over winter. To make sure it wasn't the solenoid, i crossed the terminals on the solenoid to bypass it and still nothing. I took the...

1997 challenger 1800 I just bought is making some weird rattling noise, its not the normal rattle, one engine runs fine while the other is more high pitch and will not push the boat. everything seems to be spinning inside not really sure what the problem is. like I said im new to these boats and...

i had a major engine failure this summer when my engine started knocking really hard and top speed topped off at 30 mph! I popped off the seat cover and sure enough a sock was sucked into my engine compartment. Thinking of fixing it myself any suggestions as to what the cause of the severe...

My apologies in advance for bogging down the forum with another thread about having difficulties with ignition, but I am a broke college student so my only option is to fix it myself. I apologize for a few lacking details the machine belongs to a friend of mine who also owns another seadoo, so...

2004 seadoo xpdi with around 50 hours. Can't get the ski past 5300 rpm in the water. Revs fine out of water. Tops out between 41-43 mph. Background: Got the ski about 4 years ago and ran fine. One day friend sucked up a rope so we turned it over to cut rope out (in water). Once rope was...

Hello all, Newbie here so please dont be overly technical in your answers :) I was out at the local lake yesterday with the family on my 2001 GTS doing some moderate turns nothing crazy though when suddenly I can only turn right at idle or very low speed. As soon as I get to about 1/3...

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...
