Just changed out the fuel filters on both motors. Ran great the next 2 times I took it out. On the 3rd time the drivers side motor would not go over 4500 rps and it sounded like the motor was skiping. Lifted up the back comp and i saw that they had some air bubbles in the fuel line. A seadoo tech shop did the filter replacements could something not be on right ?
 
depend'n on the filters, could be a pinched o-ring. If so/dont wanna bother with them, replace the filters with ones from any auto store...3 buks.

Those model boats, do not have o-ring type filters, but do have cannister style filters.

Yes, you should see a canister filter on it. If the previous owner removed it, you can find one in the boating section of your local Walmart. They have a see through type with the plastic basket, similar to the ones that can be un-screwed and cleaned. It was fairly cheap too.:cheers:
 
on my challenger both fuel filters are located in the engine compartment near the rear seat kind of under the fuse pannel on the driver side of the boat. should see 2 cannsiters that will unscrew
 
Inline filters...?

BRP actually made a few early models with non cleaning filters. You have to toss them and replace them. There is no way to take them apart.
 
Learning something new!...

learn something new everyday :hurray:

Yeah, I just said the same thing in another post about adding another battery... He's doint it for one of those high powered systems. He was telling me about the "Farad Capacitor" that holds and seems to maintain the charge to keep spikes from interrupting the demand, to keep from blowing fuses. So, I agree, the forum teaches you something new everyday.

And now, with some pretty good mechanics helping out, I continue to learn more and more everyday!........:cheers:
