Did you change the oil filter and bleed the oil pump?

so, #1 we all make mistakes, hopefully this isn't costly.

#2, perform a compression test - if there is poor compression - you have bigger problems than oil types.

#3 - Miki is correct - mixing oil types can cause them to gel and solidify and possibly starve the engine for oil.
#4 ebay has the actual SEA-DOO oil. XPS-II. I used to buy in cases of 3 gal.

Compression test good: move on to fixing other things
Compression test bad: get ready to pull the engine.

The DI has a specific procedure for this, I don't know it off hand.
You're looking for 130-140 PSI each, and it's more important that both are 'close' than the exact number. If both are 120-125, you should be fine. If one is 100 and the other is 120 you're shot.

I got a come pression tester today so I can check that and I think it can be used for the carburetor checks as well as what it says on the box I’ve been painting my 95 and my 2000 RX today will post pictures Soon

You can't use a compression tester for the carbs.

OK so update today I change the oil filter and I noticed one of the clear lines I believe vacuum lines had a hole in it towards the back of the motor on top ,so I cut that out and I’m not sure if I got any possible air pockets out of the line going down to the actual pump passed the new filter so I did try to pour some oil in it but it’s pretty much stopped once it hit the oil filter on top ,so I added Extra oil pre-mix to the gas and I’m going to try to put octane boost in the 87% gas that’s in it and I’m taking it to the lake first thing in the morning tomorrow
