stall

I have a 97 XP (787) that will typically start and run fine for 30 minutes or so then suddenly power cuts out, almost like it's running on one cylinder. It gets very boggy and will only run at no wake speeds. At times it will stall and will be extremely hard to start again. It does not appear to...

I bought this boat about a month ago. Upon doing some research I keep seeing similar issues with carbureted engines, but mine is a 4-tec efi. Start/ stop is flawless, it runs fine for a while, even at speed and planing, but usually about 40 minutes in it starts to sputter and die. This happens...

Hi there, I am struggling with a 1995 seadoo sportster that I recently acquired. It has the 657x engine. Amongst other issues I have encountered, here is the most recent: I rebuilt the carbs and had it out on the lake and was running great. I was idling into shore and it stalled. Got it home...

Hello, I have 2000 GTS that has an odd stall problem. After taking it out it will run fine for about 3 minutes. Then it's begins to cough and then 5-10 seconds later stalls. After it stalls it can be restarted but runs only briefly 3-5 seconds before stalling again. Could the head gasket be...

Tony, Need your help... Took the boat out today... shes been running great all season. Got 500 yrds from the dock after launching and she cut out. Tried restarting a few times and it would start for 1-2 secs. then cut out. now she wont fire at all. Turns over fine, and she sounds like she...

could someone please suggest if i have a lean condition? I think i am having a lean hesitation, but i am not entirely sure. It will bog/hesitate after idling for a few seconds but if you hit the throttle just after running hard i won't bog/hesitate. It will even stall if you hit the throttle...

I bought my gsx a few months ago and just recently got it out on the water. It started and ran beautifully for 2 outings (3-4 hours of riding). But the 3rd time I took it out, I needed to add a little throttle to start it. Then while riding it would loose power and die (in about 4 seconds)...

I acquired a 1996 GTI which I've set up for fishing (fish finder, rocket tubes, rod holders, tackle box, etc) and the GTI size and stability works great for this. I fish the California Delta and we have species from panfish up to stripped Bass, salmon and Sturgeon. The ski makes a great bass...

got a 2002 gti le and ran it all day. then all of a sudden it stalled. i had filled the machine 3 times and did not put in any oil as i was told it was self injecting. (new to the seadoo world) so at first i thought it stalled as a safety feature for no oil. i put in about 2 litres of oil and it...

My 1999 GS starts well and easily, it idles well and will run at moderate throttle. About 3-8 seconds after opening it up, it stalls. This condition came on suddenly. The ski ran perfectly for the first months of the season. There was no erratic performance or tell sale signs that forecast an...

I bought this about a month ago and it runs awesome, when it runs. Out of no where it will just die. Sometimes at idle, WOT, part throttle cruising. Sometime it will go several hours and sometimes it will go a few minutes. It acts just like you pulled the lanyard off. Sometimes it will...

Hello, I recently bought a 1997 Sea doo Sportster. The boat seems to operate fine until about half throttle at which point the engines rev and the boat begins to take off, but the then it stalls out and the RPM's drop off. If you leave the throttle in position the motor will again begin to rev...

Hi Guys- I am looking for some help with a stalling/bog problem I cant seem to solve on our 2000 Speedstee with the 240EFI. Basically it goes like this. We launch the boat and get underway just fine with no issues. We drive the boat to a anchor spot and shut it down for a while. After...

I just bought a 97' GS, it runs and sounds perfect, even hit max speeds of around 50mph+/-. After about an hour, while idle, it started to make a put-put-put noise and stall. After sitting for a few mins, she fired right up as if nothing ever happened. She runs at full throttle after the...

I'm new to this forum so let me start out by saying hi to all. I just bought a 98 sportster 1800 in great shape for its age. it just has one problem and i can't figure out how to go about fixing it. i am by no means mechanically inclined and need help! it idles strong, runs low rpms strong...

Hi all I recently purchased a 1998 Sea Doo GTX and put it in the water for the first time last weekend. It ran perfectly for about 15 or 20 minutes and then started to bog down and stall. The 12V Low warning light came on and so did the MAINT code. Currently, the MAINT code comes on for a...
