How do I know if i'm using a learners key?

[nspeedrace]

ok so I recently did a top end rebuilt on a sea doo 2000 RX I have been babying it for about 7 hours and i finally decided it was time to open up the throttle and see what it could do. To my surprise I was only able to get up to 40-42 MPG and 5,500 RPM before it bogged down back to 39-40 mph and 5300 RPM it ran great at those speeds but wouldn't let me accelerate any more. It then occurred to me that maybe I received some type of learners key....How would I be able to tell and do you think this is the problem?

I'm not certain, but I think the only 2000RX that had a learners key was the DI model. Generally a learners key is white or green.

are the raves opening ?

if you bored out the cyl's did the raves get cut down ?

hmmm idk how would I be able to tell?? the rebuild was done by a mechanic...

The learning key is labeled "LK" and limits the top speed to 35MPH. The ski responds the same in all other ways.
Also normally has white float instead of Yellow.

I would say if you got over 35 it's not a learning key.

yea definitely not a learner key issue then, what do you think would cause this then? not enough fuel getting through maybe?

I am with the others,, not using a LK.. LK's do not "bogg" the engine to control speed. You have another issue. Fuel, air or mechanical..

Is this a DI engine? the LK's only worked on the DI's in the 2-strokes. Could be any color, just depends on how it was programmed. If its a DI & not a LK, you would have maintenance warning lights coming on IMO. If its a carb'd ski its all a mute point anyway I suppose.....

Did you get rid of the grey lines?

Tempo lines are sorta like a learners key. Just way more expensive if removed too late.....
