Picking up a 2003 Seadoo sports and doing an engine investigation and rebuild. I was told it was hydro locked by some dealer . (Not !)

Great work man. Question. If was getting ready to buy a 96 speedster, twin 718 in winter and traveling 3500km to see it. What should I be looking for on inspection. Any help is appreciated.

🤔Are torque wrenches not necessary in Sea Doo repairs? I missed where you checked piston height or checked the compression let alone the carburetor flow. I know everyone has their own way of doing things but Dude… this video jacked with my mechanical OCD on so many levels.

Hmm. Every bolt was torqued..Loctite on everything. Compression bench checked and is still 150 per side as of today. I did not check piston height nor did I check carb flow. I am not building racing engines . (squish check) Totally unnecessary for my needs. I use the standard #5 base gasket, standard pistons and never machine the heads. (I will buy a good used head vs having is shaved). Hopefully that puts your mind at ease.

What are some common reasons a 2003 Seadoo Sportster LE DI wont turn over when starting? The boat will crank but not turn over. The boat has sat for 2 years with no fuel in the tank. Battery has been replaced about a month ago and about a gallon of fuel was added to the tank. What should I look for to get the boat to turn over?
@SeadooRefurb
@SeadooRefurb Жыл бұрын
I am unclear on crank and turn over. to me..they are both the same thing. if you mean the engine is turning but not starting then you need to start with the basics. check compression. check for spark . if both are good then dribble a small amount of fuel in each cylinder and see if it fires up.

6:35 I deleted both oil pumps on my 05 Ultra 150 & 98 SPX 787 for that reason right there. Those oil pumps are garbage. Those oil lines fall off so easily with these 2 stroke personal watercraft/jet boat engines. Running premix will save you a lot of headaches in the future. Sucks that yours was an error made by a mechanic, but those pumps are bound to fail anyways.

I will be paying very close attention to all of your videos on the 947/951 motor!! Thanks again!

I have a '97 Sea Doo speedster with the twin motors. [Missouri in US] One of the motors is frozen up or the starter is not working. I can't get the Sea Do dealer here in town to work on it because he says he can 't get parts. Looks like from your video you're not having any problem so apparently he just wants to sell them and not work on them. May have to do it myself. Never done this before so your videos are very helpful. Can you mention your source for parts and save me some time digging around on the Internet? Thx

Thank you. Looks like all the fuel lines are crimped and not with regular hose clamps. It's a hard reach from the edge of the boat, working blind as it's hard to find the main fuel line to initially remove. Where is that hose? Fwd or aft end? I was wondering about the throttle cable separation. Didn't want to change, just to remove to release the cable from the controller wheel under the carbs. Also is an oil pump line connected to this assembly.... someone on another video mentioned it, but I don't think it relates to the assembly Thanks for taking time to respond to me., greatly appreciated Mike

The cable that is on top across the 2 carburator air inlet (dish flaps)not sure at the moment the name that controls the rotation at the same time. Is there a trick to maintain the position of the secured clocking position of these disks. I'm wondering if I loosen the Allen nuts on the 2 places to disconnect the cables I won't know how to restore it to the correct position....or does accuracy matter?…......or Just need to retain sufficient tension on the cable?
