I got a project from a friend of mine for the summer. He had two similar boats, and the ecu was taken out of the one I have and put in a different one. A few years later, the boat is still on his dock, and he asked if I'd be interested in getting it running again. I have a son who is interested in PWCs, so I figured another project wouldn't kill me. I haven't even taken the seat off yet, and I'm trying to determine the best method to start this. I'm thinking putting some 2 stroke oil in the cylinders and letting it sit a couple days and see if it will turn over without the plugs in it. Since there is no ECU, I guess I'll have to just direct connect the starter to a battery? If it turns over, then the next step would be getting all the fuel out of the tank, cleaning the carb, and ordering an ECU? Should I look at a used one already with a matching key, or try to get a new one? I'm not really sure how the key thing works so I don't know the best way to go about it. I'm even seeing aftermarket ECU's. Anyway, the boat is a 2000 GS. Thanks in advance!
