Also, for some reason I am having go charge the battery pretty much every day in the Gtx di. Has anyone else had this problem? If so what was wrong?

Have your battery tested even if new at your local auto parts store. If battery tests then replace rectifier. If neither fixes problem then start a new thread.
 
Even tho they are no longer available. I found the only dealer within 300 miles of me that has one in Stock! I'm stoked to try it on the water after I get the injectors back!

I just pulled the compressor from my ski and it was full of this caramel color liquid. I'm assuming it's partially water but I don't know for sure.
 
Well I got all the water out and it still runs. I'm trying not to run it too much because the engine still is not broken in yet. I figured out that the left side water outlet was clogged which could be a contributor.
 
You want that pisser.,,to be always pissing,,usually indicates good water flow in the cooling system,,,and no clogs/blockages, so engine, or exhaust parts won't overheat.
 
I've done a few experiments by running the ski on the hose. Ive run it for fifteen minutes then taking out one spark at a time. The Pto side cylinder always shoots out more water than the mag. I'm thinking the problem could be a bad gasket but not sure.
 
First never run it that long because you will or already have burnt up your carbon driveshaft seal.

Second you should never be getting any water at all out of your sparkplug holes. You should never have the hose on with the engine off.
 
Even on the hose your driveshaft seal isn't getting any cooling so it will burn up.

How were you getting water out of the spark plug holes?

Still don’t understand how you got water into the engine.

We use a hose down her in Louisiana. :D :D LOL... you got me thinking here though. We use that term all the time "water in the engine" as if the combustion chamber is the engine and the rest doesn't count. I dunno... are the water jackets part of the engine? IF a water jacket leaks we don't say the "engine is bad". LOL Water jackets don't make power and they are separated from the part that does. Is the PTO just the PTO or is it part of the engine. My head hurts. LOL Touchdowns everyone.
 
At one point he said water out of the spark plugs. So trying to determine if he has an internal water leak or if it’s back feeding from the hose into the cylinders.
 
I'm teasing.... cajun humor and all that. :) Maybe his orings are leaking on the head? It won't last long like that. Gotta find the problem
 
Would the water coming through the head gasket set off a maintenance light? I really hope that is the problem though. The water is only on the pto cylinder.
 
Replace the gasket, make sure all sealing surfaces are perfect and flat and coat the new gasket with Permatex Spray Copper gasket dressing.
