Flush port

[water_scooter_joe]

Can I even get to the flush port with IBR?

I would need to take out the venturi to install a flush kit, correct?

IBR is not in the way. It would be difficult to attach the hose directly, so an adapter is recommended to connect the hose to the flush port.

Do I need to take out the venturi to attach the flush kit?

Do I need to cap/cover the quick connect while riding?

You do not need to take anything apart, or cover anything. I highly recommend you get an operators manual and just read through it.

I have that and a service/shop manual.

So I can screw down the mounting screws without the IBR being in the way?

There are no mounting screws? All that’s needed is an adapter that screws in on the starboard port. No tools required

There is no screw in for the water hose. There is a nipple all the way in the back. This allows you to push on the rubber 1/2" OD tube then mount that to the frame with the quick connect.

so let’s make this clear. Are you installing this?Or just trying to flush they system? There are screw in adapters for 15 dollars that don’t require any modifications. If you are installing that yes, you would have to take off bucket and IBR components.

If I don't have to install the flush kit, I won't. Seems like a hassle.

You keep mentioning "screw in adapters"

Can you send me a link with the one to obtain?

Amazon.com

 

[water_scooter_joe]

I don't have a port that you can screw in a water hose or quick connect.
Like I said, I have a nipple that allows a tube to fit over it. Either way, I will have to mod it. I haven't yet found an adapter that fits. I thought that was what you where showing me.

 

[Sd97gtx]

That link has the adapter piece that connects the nipple to hose. And either way that black flushing drain is threaded. Do you have the instruction manual for installation of the flush kit?

 

[water_scooter_joe]

So that is going to fit over the nipple? Your still going to need a short tube to make that adapter work.

Have you seen the flush port on a '14 sea doo spark?

 

[Sd97gtx]

I’m looking at the install instructions from BRP for the flush port. I think you should look too.

Ok. Do you see now what I am talking about?

 

[Sd97gtx]

Im still trying to figure out what you you mean. Just follow the instruction for install?

Yes. And have you looked at the BRP instructions? Answers all of your questions.

By your comments in this post, it seems like you have not seen a flush port on a '14 Sea-Doo spark and that's fine. There is no port to attach a water hose directly. In order to flush you need to fabricate your own flush kit.

 

[Sd97gtx]

You literally sent a part number for the install kit!

 

[water_scooter_joe]

And ... What is your point? I thought that would help you.

 

[Sd97gtx]

That kit has the threaded port (flushing drain) you can thread the adapter (Amazon link) adapter to. Use that flushing kit which includes the tubing, threaded port, and and everything else necessary. Forget the adapter that comes in that kit. This is probably one of the easiest installs.

 

[Sd97gtx]

Are you installing this flush kit or fabricating your own? That will definitely clear up any ambiguity.

Fabricating my own. That kit is not worth the price tag.
