Is it common to have problems with the exhaust manifolds on the 4tec engines? A mechanic told me that my exhaust manifold is showing signs of failure because it is hot to the touch and should not be. This is on my 2005 RXT. Never heard of this before. Is this really a problem?

I took about a year off from my Seadoos. I got the RXT running decent in 2015 but never quite got my GTX DI there. I want to finally get them both up and going this year. Does anyone know of a good mechanic in the area? When I had the GTX DI in the water I could only get it to go about 25 mph. I...

My 2005 RXT is currently running about 60 mph or maybe slightly faster by the installed speedometer. My RPM has not reached 8000 RPM but is getting close. I have had the supercharger rebuilt and also had someone else double check the supercharger since I heard that there had been a bad run of...

Aftermarket injectors: Has anyone used them? What kind of results did you see? Was the performance satisfactory? 42# injectors: Is it ok to upgrade to 42# injectors without upgrading the supercharger? Will the ECU adjust to the higher flowing injectors? There is a possibility that I may need...

My 2005 RXT has not been running like it should. When changing out the spark plugs today I found that one of the coils looks pretty bad. The plastic is cracked and there seems to be some rust inside. Anyone else ever have any coil problems? Maybe I have been running on 2 cylinders?

I just had a remanufactured engine put in my 2002 GTX DI. The mechanic said that I should add about 10 ounces of 2-stroke oil to the first tank in addition to the oil tank. Then I should run it for about 20 minutes and then let it cool and repeat for a few cycles. Any break in advice from those...

How much of an issue are the flywheel bolts on a 2005 RXT. How many people have had issues running a stock (not modified) engine.

I have a 2002 GTX DI. It has never ran since I got it. I have had a remanufactured engine put in and the mechanic has tried 3 different MPEM's if you count the original MPEM. Kind of makes me think that the MPEM is not the issue. This repair has been ongoing for quite some time. I'd really like...

I have a 2002 GTX DI that is at the PWC mechanics shop. It did not run when I got it. It has had a remanufactured engine put in and has had the jet pump rebuilt and the impeller sent out pitch checked and balanced. Mechanic says everything is done but it is not getting any spark. He is saying it...

It looks like I need a replacement engine in my 2002 GTX DI. How hard is it to swap out one of these engines? Who has done it? What was your experience? If you paid someone to do it, how much did they charge? Trying to get an idea of what a reasonable price is.

I have a 2005 RXT that is due for a supercharger rebuild. I'm considering an upgrade to the X-charger with the 42# injectors. What kind of horsepower increase and top speed increase should I see without an impeller change? With an impeller change? What kind of horsepower increase could be gained...

Wondering how hard it would be to rebuild my own supercharger for my 2005 RXT. How else could I really know the condition of the parts inside and if anything parts deteriorated to the point I have debris inside my engine? If I send it off how could I know it's done correctly and not just cleaned...

I went out to work on my 2005 RXT, pulled the seat and noticed that one of the seat support screws that hold the front section of the seat on was broken. Has anyone had this happen before? How do you repair it?

A few days ago I bought 2 SeaDoos on a double trailer. One is a running 2005 RXT and the other is a 2002 GTX DI. I feel like I got a decent deal because the trailer and the RXT were worth what I paid. The previous owner told me up front that the GTX DI did not run and it was locked up. If you...

Looking for people from Hampton Roads, VA or Outter Banks of NC. Wondering where you take your SeaDoos to get work done and where you usually ride.

I'm getting ready to order a wear ring for my 2005 RXT. The SBT wear ring seems to be a better value than the OEM ring. Has anyone here used one and what was your experience with it?
