I have a 2002 seadoo rxdi that was just rebuilt.
It had a little less than half a tank of fuel from last year. I topped up the oil then dumped about a quart (900mL) of injection oil into the half tank and topped it up with about $30 worth of premium fuel so the ratio was a little higher during break in...
It idled fine on a trailer with a hose running to it but I took it out today for the first time to break in the motor.
low rpms seem ok but as soon as I steadily give it throttle but not full throttle, it bogs out and dies.
It will start right up again fine and idle but as soon as I hold the throttle down about 50% or more it eventually bogs out. It doesn't sputter or choke but it just seems to almost run out of fuel to the rail.
I get it back and put it on the trailer but in the water so water is pumping out the front hose and then I get a "HI TEMP" warning on the gauge....
If water is being pumped out the front does that mean I'm far enough into the water to cool the ski ? If I can touch the cylinder wall no problem it can't really be too hot can it ?
I'm just wondering if maybe I put too much oil into the fuel and now it's running like shiiiit.. how much is too much ? how delicate is the ratio of oil / fuel ?
