I've got a 2005 RXT that I've had for a few years. I've had it out 3 times this year and each time it has had intermittent power loss for about the first 5 minutes, then it runs normally.
Example - I took it out today and for the first 2-3 minutes I could only hit 42 mph. Then the power started coming and going like someone turning on and off a light switch. After about 5 minutes, it ran normally for the rest of the day.
Here is a video of it cutting in and out. I was maintaining constant throttle, trying to keep it at 3000 RPM. (when it drops below 3000, that was me getting off the throttle).

I thought it might be my MPEM dying. I've been giving me error beeps since I bought the ski. But, I finally shelled out for a new MPEM and today was my first ride with it and it still is doing it. It did get rid of my error beeps though!
Not sure if it's related, but I did get a check engine light (first time I've seen one) at the end of the day when I was going full throttle back to the dock. It cleared after shutting it off and restarting it.
Any guesses at what could be causing this?
Thanks,
