2000 sea doo GTX millennium edition- cleaned up

[turbosl2]

Bought this machine for $700 with the trailer, cleaned it up. New seat cover, Seem welded the oil tank, fixed the fuel sender, purchased a few odds and ends. Before I water test it any advice on what other parts fail?

This was not pretty, I buffed it out with meguirs compound and gave it a nice wax, seat cover was torn to shit. Man that was a chore to replace!! Not as easy as you would think. This machine has 125hrs on it. I am familiar with the troubleshooting since I have 2 XPDIs, I don’t mind the complexity since i understand the system and it’s good for my wife, just hit the button. Really helps when your waiting in line idleing in the bay to pull them out. They don’t stall or load up. We will see how the carb model fars
