We've done it. Or should I say, I've done it. You folks have done nothing other than cringe along to this jet ski rebuild series. I, on the other hand, have rebuilt an entire jet ski, and this is the video to wrap it all up. Thank god, you may say. I, on the other hand, will also say thank god. Thank god this series is over after 9 months. Women can create an entire human in that span of time. Apparently I can only make 6 videos.

So I discovered the first video a little while ago because I like 2 stroke money pits like my 1997 seadoo xp, I then proceeded to binge watch the entire series while I should have been outside replacing the water pump on my 7.3. Kudos for making some some seriously funny and entertaining videos.

Wow, what an excellent series, just finished watching #6. I am a retired engineer and rode Sea Doo machines for 15 years and did most of the maintenance and repair work myself. I cannot tell you how much I learned about the Sea Doo in the last couple of hours watching. You tried and succeeded in tasks I had not dared tackle (very inspirational to all of us). I am really looking forward to your next camper project. Well Done!

I recently bought a 1995 Seadoo SPI and this is an amazing video. I was very much more fortunate with it because it sat for 12 years and it still looks brand new. Fix it within 3 hours all I had to do was drain the gas and spray some spray called gum in the lines and it’s working perfectly. I love your jet ski I watched the whole series within an hour.

Thanks for stopping by! The total cost of the project was around $2000. I do have a full expense breakdown, but it's a bit extensive for a comment. This project was years ago, so the only specific tool I remember buying was the spline tool for removing the flywheel. As for sourcing parts, eBay was my most reliable friend during this rebuild. There are a few watercraft superstores out there that stock old parts as well, although I definitely can't remember any of their names.

There's a fuel "pump" in the carburetors (just a diaphragm) that should prime the fuel lines if you crank the engine for 30 seconds or so. All I had to do was crank the engine a few times. If it doesn't auto-prime, it probably means there's an air leak somewhere in your fuel system.

Video 2 was only about an hr ago, not 6 months. 😂 I just bought the exact same seadoo and I am excited to start working on it(said a happy man never lol). How much did you spend on rebuilding it?

The total cost came to about $2200, including the initial $400 for the jet ski.

Hey man, did you align the jet pump and the engine?
@reed.k.h
@reed.k.h 3 жыл бұрын
Just by eye. I snugged the engine mount bolts and cranked the engine to check for any vibration in the driveshaft, and it looked pretty damn aligned without having to use any shims. I know, not recommended, but you gotta take at least a few shortcuts here and there, y'know?

i added a relay to my ski and reversed that kill switch and installed a boat kill switch. i hated that rubber garment. xD My exhaust keeps failing tho breaking studs/backing out bolts. I bought a donor ski for $250

I hated the rubber key as well, it would never make consistent contact. A boat kill switch is a good call

Hoping you respond to a year old video: I've finally gotten the time to put into rebuilding my rotax 587 (almost the exact same motor as yours with very small differences) I cant really see how/ where your oil, water, and fuel lines run to. Did you have a resource that you looked at that told you where to connect everything? If you did could you share it with me? Thanks (:
