Hello all, new to the forum here. i purchased a 97 gsx about a year ago.
At the time of the purchase the previous owner stated he just installed a new battery. I took the ski out for the first time for a couple of hours. It ran fine. However the gauge kept flashing low voltage. Ran the ski several more times
and all was well but this annoyance. On the last trip the ski started bogging
down at half throttle. I parked the ski for the year. This year i tried to crank it but the battery was dead and wouldn't hold a charge. I installed a new battery, cranked it right up and i ran it for a few minutes (low voltage was still flashing). 2 weeks later i tried to crank it and i get the 2 beeps when i install the laynard followed by a long beep when i try to crank it. Sorry for the book here but i wanted to give the whole story. problems = low voltage, not cranking, boggs down at half throttle. compression test was 150 on both cylinders.
