Guys: I know that I have seen this many times, but I cannot seem to get Tapatalk to produce any search results. I get a 12v Low indicator on my 2001 GTX RFI. Battery measures 12.25v at rest. Ski starts up fine. Voltmeter at battery measures 11.88v at idle, at 300 and 5000 rpm's. Is this a...

On my 01 GTX RFI. Jet pump rebuilt over the winter. New wear ring. It flies, now. Massive hole shot, you better hang on. 54 mph top speed, all running great. This weekend had first heavy use since the rebuild. It is taking on water faster than the bailers can remove it. 20 minutes of riding and...

Summary: - The PreVal worked fine - I got a LOT of Orange Peel - Blending is a bi$&*h In another thread, some forum members were interested in the results of my repairs for some dock damage on my 2011 GTI LTD 155. It is Marina Blue, which is a metallic gelcoat. This was my first experience...

At the risk of opening up a religious topic, I could really use an update. The original battery in my 2011 GTI LTD 155 has given up the ghost. 4 years is not bad. So, I was ready to jump on an AGM battery from Batteries +, but there is only a 12 month warranty. It is $129 less 10% for online...

I went to the Atlanta Boat Show last week and saw a handlebar grip on the 2016 models that, I think, are new. Instead of the normal cylindrical shape, they have a flange that protrudes where you can rest the "meat" of your thumb. They look funny, but we're extremely comfortable, especially,I...

Which product are people using for Grease Guns? There seem to be a number of products with all kinds of price points. Lincoln appears to be the most expensive. Then there are: Plews Performance Tool Husky Wilmar Lubrimatic Also, any comments on those mini-guns that use 3 oz cartridges...

Over the winter, I have a little body work to do on my 2011 GTI LTD 155, Marina Blue Metallic. I found the product at Gelcoat.ca, but it is only in Quarts. I sure don't need a quart of gelcoat for a minor repair. Especially at $115 per quart. Anyone have another source in "repair"...

The Op Guide says to use Dow 111 or Molykote on the ignition coils. Does plain old di-electric grease or even Vaseline do the same thing? Isn't it used just for any potential water intrusion? Thanx, -Dave Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well, the kids had the 01 GTX RFI out for the last few weeks. Son said it was perfect. Daughter takes it out over the weekend says it is "stuttering" and has lost its acceleration and has top speed of 30. So I took it out. WOT gets to 7K rpms and the "stuttering" sounds like it is bouncing off...

Guys: This is on my 2011 GTI 155 LTD. My machine sets on a jet port for a week between rides. When I start it up, I get a puff of blue oil smoke. I get no smoke that I can see while riding and none when I start it up after a shutdown during the ride. It has Amsoil in it. The ski now has 117...

Pulled the 2001 GTX RFI out of the garage. Charged up the Duralast AGM battery. While putting it in the ski, I dropped the 10 mm combo wrench into the bilge. I will be damned if I can find it or feel it. Should I be concerned or is this just a sacrifice to the bildge gods? Anyway, fired right...

Looking for some opinions and education on 4Tec oil, please. My Owners Manual (2011 GTI 155 LTD) says to use XPS synthetic blend oil, or 5w-40 or 10w-40 with API service level SM, SL, or SJ. I did a search in this sub-forum for "oil" and found 0 topics. Doing some research on oils, the API...

Guys: I hope someone has an idea, cuz I am outta them. My running lights don't work. Coming out of a 7 slot thru an adapter to a 4 flat. The wires were frayed on the trailer, insulation worn off and blew the fuse in the Explorer (tow vehicle) for the running lights. Fuse replaced. A-OK. Cut...

Sorry guys, (@hfgreg) I do not know where to post this. I know that there have been upgrades to the site recently, however, yesterday, my Tapatalk access to the Forum stopped working altogether. It cannot fetch any threads: Error - 2203 Failed to process XML Data due to unknown error...

4-Tec Forum Members: I have been hanging out on the 2 Stroke Sub-Forum since I bought my first ski last year. I have contracted the SeaDoo Acquisition Disease and just recently purchased a 2011 GTI 155 LTD with 70 hrs. A brief search did not turn up anything, but does anyone have any...

Guys: I know this question does not belong in this sub-forum, but everyone here has been so helpful, I thought I would post and then get it moved to the right place. This is actually on my Donzi, not on my Doo. I noticed last summer a number of tiny 1/2 inch cracks on the gunwale. They are...

Guys: I bought this SD this past September. One thing that seems odd to me is the vent piping in the forward storage bay. The vent that connects to the port side cowling vent was only partially in and the zip tie had broken. So I thought I would reattach this - how hard could that be. The...

Guys: Has anyone used brands other than NGK (BR8ES)? Like maybe the E3 brand? -Dave Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

OK, guys, my first real post, so I apologize in advance if I "step in it". I bought my first jet ski, a 2001 GTX RFI with 104 hrs on it right after Labor Day. It had not been used for 2 years, sitting in the guys garage. The PO put a new battery in it, a friend of mine, with some...

Greetings to all. Well, I just bought my first SeaDoo a little over a month ago ( end of season deal). I am not new to the water-life as I have owned boats on and off since the mid '70's; but since retiring, I joined a group of like situated 'old guys' and after renting and running with them...
