    95 SPX rear vts conversion

    Hello all! I'm back after a long while, I found a great deal on a mint 95 SPX hull, no hairline cracks and the stickers still look amazing. Got it for 100 cad. So, I'm going to swap all my internals and pump from the Xp to the Spx. Everything seems like it'll work fine, except the SPX hull has...

    hi, have tried reaching out to the boys in the fb groups but seems no one wants to help! i was riding in some waves and ended up tipping the boat causing the lanyard to unhook and myself to fall off the side. When i got back on, the ski would crank endlessly but wouldn't start. I brought it...

    Bowser’s SPX

    Ahoy SeadooForum, This build thread serves to archive the trials of my first water craft, a ’95 SPX. It was purchased in March 2022 with a known issue of fuel not getting to the carburetors. I am a first-timer at fiddling with two stroke engines but find forums a wealth of info, so here I am...

    1998 Seadoo SPX floods with water even after carbon seal replaced

    Hey everyone. My 1998 SPX is still getting water inside. I replaced the carbon seal, the old one was really bad, and it still gets water in it. I’m not too sure where else water could come in. Water looks like it was slung everywhere in there so I’m really thinking that the carbon seal is still...

    95 spx, needs top end but can't find parts, found used motor claimed to be running but seems to cheap. Help

    Have a 95 SPX that needs a top end rebuild. New to PWC last year, know a little bit mechanically but not enough to decide how to move forward. My local Sea-Doo outfit said the machines too old for them to work on and also said the top end rebuild kit is discontinued. I found somebody to work on...

    Question on DESS

    When was the DESS key put into Sea-Doo models? Is it normal for a 1996 Sea-Doo SPX to have a standard post kill switch? Is it normal for a seadoo with a standard post kill switch to have a MPEM with the wire for the DESS application? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks

    96 Seadoo spx - fuel mixture update

    Back when these engines were built they did not have a mixture system that adapted to the amount of power you gave the seadoo. I am wondering if anyone has successfully put a new system in there that changes the oil and fuel mixture while driving. or if anyone knows where there is one that is...

    96 SPX Losing Power on Water

    So been racking my brain on this one, I think it has to do with a bad impeller. Have a 96 SPX that will completely lose power while on the water only. If i run it on a hose, there's no power loss at all. By power loss I mean it will be going full speed, and then just go back to idle, then back...

    The girl will idle but dies with throttle. Seems to be a fuel problem. Completely emptied tank. Cleaned the fuel strainer located above oil tank. It was not very dirty, no particles or loose debris. Think I should probably clean or replace actual fuel filters which I understand to be in the...
