I was breaking in my '97 xp and it starts bad while cold because of the oil mixed with the gas im guessing. I premixed the first tank. It idles well as soon as its warmed up. The idle is a bit high (cause the speed is about 5-6 miles an hour) but ill turn that down. I dont know what the rpm is at cause there is no gauge.
These things i can do but the problem is that when i try the second step of breaking in the engine (ride around varying the throttle up to 20% for 30 minutes) the ski doesnt go past about 10% throttle. I cant tell if its rich or lean. I dont really know what it feels like. the low speed is set at standard 1 + 1/4 turn and the high speed is at 0. what could be wrong and what can i do. could it also be cavitation in the impeller?
I thought maybe it hasnt worked itself in enough and the compression is bad but both cylinders show 150 exact. The engine was rebuilt by SES
