    Not receiving forum emails

    For some reason I do not seem to be getting SeaDoo forum emails. After discovering this, I searched back in my email history and it seems this stopped sometime back in August 2022. Is there some way to reverify my email so I can start receiving again? Yes, I checked junk mail, etc.

    RAVE valve again

    Hello SeaDoo Forum!! I have been away a while, but finally got back. I did a search and I know this subject has been discussed some way in the past, but nothing real new. I pulled my XP (running fine when I shut it off on the trailer) from the water in October and it has been sitting under...

    Where for parts now

    It seems OEM parts for our older models are getting harder and harder to find. What are the rest of you doing for parts when there is no more available?

    My turn to repair leaking head pipe

    Well, I found one of the plugs in the head pipe leaking, so tried fixing for the season with JB weld. The good news is that stopped the plug leak. The bad news is there is a worse leak from the gasket between the manifold and the head pipe. So off the head pipe must come. Since I have to take...

    Stripped pump stud.

    Was changing pump oil and noticed the last few times I could not torque the nuts to the specified torque. I have always used a torque wrench so they have never been overtightened. I was able to torque it to 8 lbs ft. I have a few questions. 1) any ideas why this stud stripped? 2) will it be...

    Drive shaft issue

    So today I went for about an hour ride on my 97 XP. When I got back to the dock, I heard bad rattle at idle. Not from the engine. The engine is running great. So I lifted the back hatch and saw pink dust all over. See picture. Also found this lump of pink plastic. See other picture. I suspected...

    XPS full synthetic oil

    So it’s time for me to order a case of oil. It looks like they have phased out the yellow gallon bottles and gone to black bottles. Can anyone confirm this? I read on one review on Amazon that this was the case and the user actually wrote them and they replied with a statement saying it was...

    Carbon ring and boot

    I de-winterized and finished changing pump oil and put the XP back in the water today. I noticed cavitation immediately and checked bilge via rear hatch. Water was pouring around the boot. I put it back on the trailer and inspected. There was a gap between the carbon ring and metal flange. This...

    Seal tray

    My seal tray on my 97 XP seems to have warn on the edges and let's trash(mostly pine needles) collect in the joint between each side of the intake grate and the ride plate. Is it pretty simple to remove the grate(i've read stories of trouble getting the bolts loose)?. Our would it be better to...

    Fuel line elbows

    I have a question. I bypassed my fuel selector valve this season, because it stuck and then when I got it free it started sucking air. I ran the fuel line straight to the tank and removed this piece. (See picture). My question is, is there a functional purpose for these 90 degree elbows other...

    Service bulletins

    Is there anywhere we can lookup all/any service bulletins for our models? If not, maybe we should start compiling them somewhere and maybe appeal to BRP to publish them all publicly online. What do you all think about that? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Accelerator pump

    Ok, I have been on vacation this week and mostly trying to enjoy the Seadoo. I've been successful and the weather has been perfect here. I took the ski out of the water one morning just to check some thing's for a couple issues I am having. One is difficulty keeping it running on warm restarts...

    Hard restarts (hot) slight big off idle.

    Ok, these issues just keep alluding me. Everything runs fine except for 1) slight bog from idle. It will clear out and not die on its on now that I have confirmed the a-pump nozzles are both spraying. It just hesitates now and then clears and goes. 2) hard restart after sitting for 15 minutes...

    Carb pressure test

    Can I pressure test the carbs on the engine just to make sure it is holding? Do I just block off the return and pump up at the supply nipple? What about the pulse line? Also, can someone confirm the LS setting on this (97 XP)? The manual says 1 turn but I see it listed as 1.5 at other...

    Fuel tank pressure

    I know that my tank has two vent valves. One for letting air in as fuel is burned to prevent a negative pressure and the other for relieving pressure (over 3 PSI I think). So my question is since there can be a positive pressure of up to 3 PSI, can/should there be a small and short audible...

    Fuel issue at startups

    Ok, so this year I replaced my fuel lines on the a-pump circuit and got most of the bog out of the transition from idle. Changed my fuel selector as I found it was not turning off the fuel. I remembered the last mechanic that rebuilt my carbs mentioning that he adjusted the carbs to try to...

    Fuel selector

    Ok, I have a mystery. To troubleshoot another issue I decided to turn my fuel selector to off to let the fuel system run dry before shutting the engine off. The mystery is that it never stopped running. I played around the house/dock for 5 minutes then ran up and down the river a couple more...
