GTX RFI fuel/water issue

[Rgmiller]

I have a GTX RFI. Bought is this winter and finally had time to get it ready for the water. When I hooked it up to the water hose I noticed that water appeared to be coming out of the holes that the fuel injector are in. Any thoughts or suggestions? Thanks.

Was the engine running before you turned on the hose? On the Sea Doos, you always need to have the engine running before turning on the hose, and shut the hose off before killing the engine... If you did it the other way around, you’ve flooded the exhaust and motor with water...

Yes. I did have the motor running before hooking up the water hose.

Well to be honest, I’ve never dig into an RFI engine, so I can’t say for certain if/how the injection system and the cooling system are intertwined, but it sure doesn’t sound right to me. Hopefully Mikidymac or one of the other guys that have worked on the RFI’s will jump in and give you some advice...

That is really strange for sure.
I think you are going to have to try it again to pinpoint the source of the leak.

Are you sure it’s water and not fuel
