Hi guys,
I'm new to this forum and Seadoo PWCs.
I have just bought my first ever seadoo ski, a 1996 GSX. (781cc)
Its been converted to pre-mix, had an engine rebuild roughly 30 hours ago but been stood for 2 years since.
It has a good spark and compression but when trying to turn it over with both plugs in nothing happens.
I've just replaced the starter solenoid as it was bad and had it turn over the odd time with both plugs in but most of the time nothing happens.
I read somewhere on here that when standing oil can leak into lower crank and sort of hydro lock it up and you need to clear the oil before trying to start it but nothing seems to work.
I've also had the starter off and apart, cleaned it all up and back together, brand new battery and cleaned up all the battery cables.
Any help appreciated I'm at a bit of a loss with it.
Andrew
