04 rxp took in alot of water

[bob_worlds]

just took out my rxp and it was blowing alot of white smoke and took in alot of water. dont know where the water came from. now my oil is milky colored and all the coolant is gone. any help would be much appriciated. i checked and searched to see if anyone else had a problem like this couldnt find any.

You need to explain this better. Took in a lot of water....is the hull full? Milky oil means you need to drain it and heat out the water before you add new oil. You need to explain how the water got in the oil...did it sink? You have several things you need to do depending on how your seadoo got in this position. You also might need a manual to fully do the procedures to expel the old oil and get it back in running condition...

sounds like a bad head gasket to me

 

[custompartsguy]

coolant is gone because that was the white smoke you where seeing, put a head gasket on it, and go back to having fun

 

[custompartsguy]

done a comprssion check yet?

 

[bob_worlds]

thank you is it like doing it on an older seadoo

 

[custompartsguy]

doing what?

 

[kustomkarl]

It's not a 2 stroke it's a 4-tec...little more than slapping on a head gasket.

none the less was trying a short answer...sometimes I make things sound easier then they are....but does sound like a head gasket to me the way it is explanied...unless he also injested water.

 

[bob_worlds]

is it possible to do it myself? changing the head gasket and getting all water out of the system

 

[custompartsguy]

I honestly have no clue how to do one or how hard it is on that motor all that I do know is by what you stated that you seen white smoke,coolant is empty and oil is milky that it seems to be a head gasket...I am an ase cert auto tech just trying to offer my advise to what this might be. Some one else on here will be more able then I to help tell you how to do the gasket on that motor.

 

[bob_worlds]

thanks for your help and time responding to me

Found this yesterday and it may be same/similar to your problem:

Had a water-in-hull problem with my 02 GTX Ltd when we put it in lake Friday and it nearly sunk! So wife was searching for some "similar" experiences yesterday.

There is a procedure to "Boil" out the milky oil. It is a bit detailed to reprint all the information in the forum. Having the manual is the best $10.95 investment you could pay to subscribe here or go the seadoo dealer and spend $85.00 for a manual. If you have water in your oil, you need to act fast as it is doing bearing damage as we speak. Finding the source to the water problem is key also. It could be a cracked case, cooling line...ect. The manual will have all the information to help check the problem too. We can recommend you try different things but we cant see the engine or do different tests to solve it. Either you get a manual to solve it yourself or bring it somewhere to have it checked out. Either way, don't wait days or weeks to get it solved. Your engine will be scrap.

:agree: could be many things, including a cracked case, but you do need to get the water out asap.

 

[bob_worlds]

Does anyone know about how much it would be at a dealer for the head gasket, changing the oil 3x and the "boil out"?

 

[bob_worlds]

is there any way the water that came in through the exhaust if so how?

 

[kustomkarl]

Not really..call your local dealer and ask prices...The average labor cost here in Florida is $99.00 per hour...
