I was out riding along for an hour without out any issues, owned for 5 years, I decided to take a break after cruising around.
my seadoo started right up, lost power just like picking up a bog of weeds anyway, I reached under and cleared them out not much at all, after clearing out the weeds and restarted and went to take off had no power! so started diagnostics this is what I have, comp in both cylinders @ 118 psi, pulled spark plug wire off both cylinders, front cylinder kills the engine when spark plug wire is pulled and the rear (pto) cylinder has little to no change when pulled off, I swapped spark plugs - that appears to not be it, I have very loud snapping spark to both cylinders, sounds like solid spark jumps a big air gap to plug.
The spark plug (rear cylinder ) when removed is wet, like its gas fouled, I sprayed carburetor cleaner while running to rear crank seal area no change there , Im stumped its either fuel or mechanical , I tried the choke that kills the engine and sprayed the air intake with carb cleaner and kills the engine as well.
 
Spraying carb cleaner doesn't do anything, other than wipe out the oil that is keeping the engine healthy. If the rear plug is wet... did you try putting in new plugs? They don't last forever, and you could have a bad one.

Also... 118 psi is very low, and I'm guessing that engine is on it's last leg.
