A few days ago I bought 2 SeaDoos on a double trailer. One is a running 2005 RXT and the other is a 2002 GTX DI. I feel like I got a decent deal because the trailer and the RXT were worth what I paid. The previous owner told me up front that the GTX DI did not run and it was locked up. If you try to start it clicks but won't turn over. I have pulled the spark plugs and filled with marvel mystery oil as I read somewhere it was good for breaking parts free. I tried again after a couple of days of letting the marvel mystery oil sit and still got the same results. I'm probably going to pull the jet pump next and see if there is a chance that the pump and not the engine is locked up. In the event that I have to replace the engine does anyone here have any experience with either SES or SBT engines? SES appears to have a better price but I have read elsewhere that there have been issues with turnaround time from them. Looking for advice on troubleshooting my "seized" engine and remanufactured engines. Thanks again.
