Tempo lines?
Does your ski still have the grey fuel Tempo lines. This is the number one reason for the problems in bogging on our skis. So, let me know if you still have the grey fuel lines. If so, change them out to the 1/4" black fuel line and remove and clean out the carbs........

yah it still has the grey lines. So i should change them. What happens to the grey ones is this a very common problem with the seadoo thanks
Snipes korner..?
Yes, .... this was a huge disaster when Seadoo used these Tempo fuel lines. The fuel dissolves the lining and when it's soluable, it travels through the internal porting of the carbs, needle valves and makes a mess of everything. Once you shut the motor down, the rubber that is solubable, will then re-harden. It clogs the micro filter, gets into your jets and spring, lever.
Look at the bottom of this post and you'll see a link to "snipes korner". Look through that thread and you'll see a post I made on it. I took a piece of the fuel line and sliced it sideways so you can get a pretty good look as to what happens.
You will need to replace all fuel lines. Though I always suggest to do all, you really only need to concentrate on the ones that stay full of fuel. Your vent lines should be o.k.... You'll need about 25 feet.
Be careful in buying the fuel line, some of these parts houses will rip you off by selling you injector line. It's like $6 bucks a foot. You only want 1/4" fuel line. The standard line is about a buck a foot............:cheers:
