Well my current project ski ('98 xp limited) which started off as a quick flip and tossing in a new engine took a nose dive. After battling issues with the starting system, chewing up a starter because the MPEM started to fail and "pulse" the starter. Then the internal charging regulator...

Hey guys, after a long cold snowy (but fun) winter, the sleds are tucked away for their long summers nap and the skis are out. Sold the 2000 gtx and picked up a 98 xp limited 951 basket case. CB shaft went out and trashed the block, crank and cb shaft gear. Was able to pick up a fresh rebuilt...

Well the 2000 gtx (1998 internals, wiring harness, MPEM, engine, Rear E-box) Ran great on land (didnt rev it up being a new engine, just primed the lines and got the idle set before taking it to the lake) It starts up and idles pretty good, but give it gas, it struggles and occasionally you...

Well a while back I swapped in a '98 951 into a 2000 gtx. 98 mpem and engine were transferred over. I never had the rear ebox on the '98 to see if there was a difference... well there is. The '98 had a single coil, and the 2000 has a coil per cylinder. I realized this as i started the engine...

Coming from a sled background, almost all Rotax skidoo engines have RAVE's the 470, 583, 650 and up all have raves. (the 470 bottom end is the same up to the 650) So thinking of the 580 engine. It has the same cylinders either pwc, or sled, the heads are different (sled has a thermostat in...

I've seen newer skis with the pisser on the side of the ski that you can see while riding, rather than the tow hook at the back that you never notice unless you are looking back there... I noticed while working on my 2000 gtx, there is a through-hull fitting that was for the battery vent almost...

Well as you may know, I rebuilt my 951 carbed engine with most OEM parts (only non OEM parts were rings and gasket kit) That went very well, just been too busy to upload pictures to my computer, house projects,etc,. At the same time I did my engine, My buddy picked up another 951 ski that was...

Moderators please remove this. All is sorted out now. Thank you.

Well, I figured its time to stop half-assing my pop off tests with a questionable regulator on my compressor, so I was at princess auto (canadian harbor freight) and came across this digital pressure regulator. 15$ for that price i couldn't go wrong. Decided to check its accuracy with a super...

Well its the long weekend here in Canada and figured I'd get the family cottage open and the toys out. Beautiful day out on the water and all was well. I launched the old '91 GT (yes the old dinosaur) and it fired up and after clearing out the fogging oil, took off and ran like a champ. Did a...

Well i finally pulled that engine from the donor 1998 hull and have it on the bench ready to be gone through. First time pulling a 951 and only took 1.5 hours. That damn bottom exhaust bolt was a B**ch. Ended up pulling the carbs to get it off! Re checked compression today and i'm at 130 and...

Hey guys, Well i just signed up for quite the project. Picked up a perfect mint 2000 GTX hull (complete minus engine and MPEM) and a 1998 GTX, weathered hull, but complete 951 engine that runs rough. 250 original hours. Picked them up for 900$ (not bad for Ontario) Only major part i seem to be...

Lookin for another project for the winter... About a month ago i was asking about a 96 xp, but owner painted the hull a weird blue and engine had 125 psi. He wouldnt take less than 1000$ with a damaged impellor, so i walked away. This one looks a little more promissing...

Okay so this local seadoo pops up on craigslist. Hulls been repainted, but looks pretty good. Comes with a makeshift skidoo trailer. 1000$ it runs but needs a new impellor. Haven't called the guy yet but either he sucked something up or it needs a new wear ring. I know about testing the...

Hi there, It seems that seadoo has stopped making crankshafts for the yellow 587. There are some on ebay, but they dont seem to be in the best condition. I found a nice crankshaft from a '93 white 587, but im not sure if it will work with my yellow 587. I know after '92 the wiring all changed...

Does anyone have a 1990 Sea doo Gt all together near mississauga/toronto (Canada), or another sea doo with neutral/reverse? My friend is looking for a stable platform for his camp. (it wont be used much, but it has to be a complete sea doo) It doesnt have to run well or have a battery/trailer...
