Quite a nifty idea. My lift needs new bunks this winter so I'm now thinking of using your idea.

When I replaced my sun burnt display on a 2012 GTX, it needed to be married by the dealer. It takes 5 minutes. My friend did it for free as I had bought the new display from them. Most dealers quote an hours labor charge. I have a CanDoo Pro....

Who makes it? What is the model number? How much did it cost? Anyone else have questions? Thanks for the info...

I believe that most dealers recommend replacing the plugs annually. Though too much of a bother for some in here, I get mine online and do it after storage for the winter. I first fire it up to burn off the spray I put in the cylinders at the end of season, then swap out for new plugs. I've done...

Another positive is you can add DESS keys without paying the dealer to program them to the ski.

I noticed that you didn't mention the oil at all. If there is water in the oil, it will foul the plug as soon as you crank it. Plugs are a critical item on modern ski's and just a little H2O will screw them up.

Now that you found your battery worn out, do yourself a favor. Get a good quality float charger (not the Harbor Freight type) and put it on there for the Winter. In the Spring you'll thank us for how nicely the new battery starts the ski. Make sure you remove the cables from the battery before...

I have the same model 2012 RXT-260. In some of the threads there was talk of weak magnets in the key. I was getting the same response, at times you press START, see "Reading...", put key on post, and it doesn't see it. I did the same and when it said reading w/key on post, I tried a magnet on...

They sell anchor bags that you can just fill with rocks and sand when you need them. Check West Marine ($17.99)below: JET LOGIC Personal Watercraft Sand Anchor | West Marine

:):thumbs-up:

There is a used one on eBay with returns accepted in 30 days. Ouch $500+ship

LOL at Arkie Bob... :D

Another thing to look at is the engine RPMs, it won't go over 8000 if the SC is shot and slipping.

I agree with benji. In Sport mode, my 2012 RXT 260 says it's burning 18GPH. Yes more than a tank of gas per hour, but its doing it at a crazy 69 mph. In ECO mode its uses more like 3-5 GPH but only tops out at 47mph. Slower but way more co$t effective in the fun. Besides, the water speed limit...

:( Sorry about the bad luck. A new 1.5L will be costly but like you said, it will run like new afterwards.

There are probably stones stuck between the impeller blades or a lot of damage to the impeller. If you can't fix it yourself, a dealer will be happy to lighten you by about $600-700 USD for parts and labor. If thats the repair, insist on a new wear ring too. Then you'll be able to ride it like...

The new covers have mesh vents on the side to let the thing breathe in changing sunshine. I have the same on pictured above. They allow a small amount of water in during good rain. They also let out humidity during hot spells so not much should remain (unless you live in monsoon territory).

Just wanted to point out that you didn't mention anything wrong. Is there a vibration? Does it fail to start up? Do you see rocks if you look up into the inlet grate? Sometimes small rocks and sand get sucked up and don't do any real damage other than scrapes in the path of the water flow.

I know you can get lots of good info here as there are many smart mechanics in these forums. If you just bought the CanDoo Pro, you have access to their forums to get help with the tool. I think you should start there with questions on operating the tool. B-T-W, I bought one in the Spring and...

Man, yes you did. Whats the worse that could've happened if the piston split apart? The experts here would know..
