Hey all - I've got a 1996 XP 800cc. After sitting over night, I can get it started easily, and away I go. It runs very strong. Then, 5 or 10 minutes later when I stop and kill the engine - I have a VERY hard time getting it started again. So much so that I'm killing the battery.
It takes like 2 minutes of trying until it finally starts. I think I've noticed that holding the throttle wide open when trying to start it helps. I SeaDoo mechanic once told me never to use choke, so I don't.
Any ideas? Has anyone experienced this? It's almost like perhaps it's flooded, but why would it be in this scenario?
