I picked a new sea doo from a dealer. When I was picking it up, the salesman started it (no hose connected). Once it started he shut it off, but a lot of water blew out the back end.
Reading the manual, the water should be turned off before the engine, so I would think most of the water would have been blown out when the service department ran it the first time. My concern comes from a comment the sales guy made, he indicated the guy setting up the skis has only been working there for a couple weeks.
Here is my question. How much water typically blows out the back when the engine is started after it has been ran on a hose?
The reason I am wondering, is if the set up guy stopped the engine with the hose still running, it could possibly force water into the engine.
I am probably overthinking this and I should trust that the dealer knows how to set up their skis. But since these are my first jet ski’s, I don’t want to assume anything.
