im the new proud owner of a 97 seadoo xp. Thanks to all the great info on here i have changed all the fuel lines, jet pump oil, oil filter, cleaned rave valves, cleaned carbs, changed vts boot etc.. i've had it out once and was a blast! but after cleaning the carbs i had to re adjust the oil pump but my question is i only see a mark for full throttle that lines up? normally they are setup at idle to my understanding. i tried to google it and cannot find anything to help with this setup and i downloaded the manual but it's not real clear either. anybody have any pic of what exactly im looking for? im actually considering a oil pump block off plate at this point.

There are two little mark lines that have to match up. Get yourself a mirror and flashlight and you should be able to see them. One mark is on the arm, the other on the pump. Once you have the idle set then adjust it
 
i have the idle set and only see one line for wot. ill have to get a mirror and double check for anothe rline for idle
 
Here's a picture of an oil pump for a 717 showing the marks lined up for idle setting, yours is similar.

It's out of focus but I think you can get the idea.

thanks for the pic lou, i'll get a mirror and check it out. seems like the paint is so thick that it is making it hard to see the marks
