Hello,
I am looking to buy a 1997GTX from a friend of mine. It has sat for four years without running. My buddy bought a new battery and nothing happens. There is no power to the gauges, no power to the starter, nothing. I checked the three fuses and they all look great. The inside of the ski actually looks almost new! It has very few hours. Could the lanyard possibly be the culprit? I heard it has to be programmed or something? It use to work great. I personally have ridden it a couple times. Any help in the right direction would be appreciated.
The next question is I am also looking to buy his 1995 XP. It has also sat for 4 years but it starts. Its problem is it idles at almost full throttle without pressing the gas. The cable does not appear stuck as it moves freely.
My buddy is asking $1,700.00 for both with a real nice tandem trailer. Is it worth my while to try to fix these? I know they both ran when they were parked.
Thanks for your time
Dave
