    1996 seadoo gti

    Also one more thing. There is this cylinder like Thing in line with the oil line that maybe is a filter that has what looks to be some chew marks on it. I will include a picture of what im describing and see if you can tell me what it is and if it needs to be replaced because of the condition...

    1996 seadoo gti

    For now since I don’t have the quick connect can I just connect a hose to that inlet to the right of the jet pump?

    Can I just connect a water hose to the inlet for the cooling hose by the pump in the back?

    1996 seadoo gti

    This is the inlet for that hose. Instead of me buying a flush kit could I just use my water hose and hold it up to that port for the time being? Can I turn my hose on full blast and put it up to that inlet or should it be lower pressure than my hose full blast?

    1996 seadoo gti

    I have attached a pic of a hose that runs to my engine on my 96 Seadoo gti. I’m trying to figure out what this connection is for, possibly a flush port?

    1996 seadoo gti

    I don’t see a physical water hose connection. I will get pictures by the jet pump and post them. There is one Inlet to the right of the jet pump that looks like it takes water and feeds it to the engine. Do I need to hook a little water hose up to that? There is also a valve in the engine bay...

    1996 seadoo gti

    I’ve just purchased a 1996 Seadoo gti 720 and I’m trying to figure out how I can correctly supply water to the ski out of water so I can run it for a little when it’s in the trailer. Also I wanted to get some opinions on 2 stroke oil to use in this ski. I’ve been looking at Amsoil oil 2 stroke...

    Mercruiser 165hp I/O

    How good are Mercury 165hp engines? I’m looking to buy a boat as a fixer upper and it has a 165horse mercruiser engine. The seller says it’s been rebuilt and I’m curious if that can be a good or bad sign. I’ve noticed it has what looks to be a new coil, new oil filter, probably has had an oil...

    1978 Mercury 90hp outboard

    Who says anyone needs a manual? I’ve rebuilt chainsaws all the way up to jetskis without any manual. Being able to rebuild something without looking at the manual is not the greatest accomplishment of the century. How come you’ve got so many inline 6’s? Do you not wanna fix the easy problems at...

    1978 Mercury 90hp outboard

    You can’t give up on something that easy or you’re never gonna get anywhere with any motor. Nothing a little lube can’t fix. The rings are probably just stuck but there’s still a good chance it will run with some work.

    Should I buy this Mercury 40 horse?

    Good evening, I wanted to get some people’s opinions on this outboard. I am very mechanically inclined when it comes to outboards and I’m always on the look for good deals that I can sell for some profit. I was wondering if this outboard would be a good fixer upper. There is no pictures of the...

    1978 Cajun bass boat model identification

    Hello! I have a 1978 Cajun bass boat that I have got and I am trying to figure out the model of the boat. I have put the HIN number into a search online and the search brought up the boat but it said it was unsure of the model. The plate by one of the seats on the boat says the max horsepower is...

    Spark plug recommendations for 1973 evinrude 65 triumph.

    I was able to get the motor running with a charger up battery. The starter seems very strong and I was able to check the starter and it read healthy.

    Spark plug recommendations for 1973 evinrude 65 triumph.

    I’ve been grounding my plugs and keeping the wires connected. The engine’s definitely got compression but I think some rings might be sticking and just need to be lubricated because the engine was sitting for awhile. Also I’ve used a battery charger try directly jump the starter and he starter...

    Spark plug recommendations for 1973 evinrude 65 triumph.

    I jumped it. Instantly the starter engaged but I’m pretty sure I have a weak starter because my starter will turn the flywheel then slow down, hesitate and then turn it again and repeat the hesitation after a spin or two.
