Hi all 
new to this site and the world of skis. I have a 2000 rx millennium that i bought at the end of season last year. bought it with a fully rebuilt engine that was done by previous owner but was untested in water when i purchased it. i took it to my local jetworks center for a check over to make sure all is well and they said it was fine and everything was in good order and smooth. i have just run the ski in and yesterday was the first time i could open it up for longer than 2 seconds. she was running really well and pulling hard up to 60 mph. couple of hours later i come back to the shore and eased off the gas and it wouldnt idle and slowly died out. then re started and had a huge power loss and a slight spluttering at times. the revs dropping and sluggish throttle response. took the seat off to see any noticeable problems and what i think are air pipes had fallen off and water looks like it had gone inside. when i got it home i started back up and it sounds not rough as such but not how it should, and with a deeper noise. I thought a cylinder might of give up, as first cylinder gets hot and the other stays cold (ish) i think pressure test is needed.
Im not very handy or clued up about engines and only know basic stuff, but i am willing to learn. has any one got any idea what the problem could be if it could be simple problem or possibly new re-build
Many thanks
