2000 RX fouling rear plug with fuel.
Hello
New here and to Seadoos. I have been seeing this girl for a year or so and she has 2 Seadoos. Her husband passed away a while back and now these have become my problem. I am an ASE master certified tech for cars, but these things are a whole other deal.
Anyway. Over the last 2 years this 2000 RX with carbs has been fouling the rear plug with fuel. When he owned it, it would foul once a month and then Once a week and then all the way up to now where it fouls one rear plug after 3 - 5 hours of riding. The boat runs like brand new all the way up until this fouls ( almost instantly ) and then it sputters. Change the plug and drive it the rest of the day. When you pull the plug, it is black and reeks of fuel so I am eliminating oil as a possibility. Like I said, until it fouls the boat runs without a flaw at all throttle positions. It is always the rear plug. Coil? ECM? Carb?
Any help on where to start this diagnosis would be a great plus.
Thanks
John
