I have a very unique issue with my 1997 Sea-Doo GTX with a 787 engine. I believe the internal oil pump that circulates the two-stroke oil through the block is not working. After doing a full rebuild on this engine, I noticed that when the engine is cranking, I do not see oil circulating from the oil reservoir to the inlet of the engine and then back to the reservoir.
I even pulled off the oil return line to the reservoir and blew pressure into the reservoir, and oil bled out into a cup. But when I crank the engine over, there is no oil flow.
I also believe this may be part of the reason why I’m having a fuel delivery problem, because the components inside the engine block are not being lubricated properly.
What could be the issue? As I mentioned, the engine had a full rebuild, and the counterbalance has brand new seals.
