Fuses are on MPEM inside grey E-box. That box slips into the floor shoe and snaps. Pull the shoe tab towards rear to unsnap the box. Open hood n remove basket to see if your zip ties on the wires are preventing you from pulling the box up to sit on stator where you could then unclip the box tabs...

Remove the grey PTO cover, could be the zerk needs grease into that bearing. The loose clear tube going to transome is the battery vent tube. (old style)

Are the Raves stuck open? How fresh is the gas?

Begin with a compression test before you re-try riding. Posting This will tell us the engines health. Do you have your manual specific to your year/model?

Blowby pressure coming out the front crank seal. Bills86e

Dave Check the compression first on your 720 motor, then pull the return fuel line off the carb and put a short hose on into a catch can. Crank it for a few seconds to see if the fuel is routeing. Is the fuel fresh? Is there Spark? Pull the *plugs and put a big rag over the holes, if the crank...

The '95 GTX had a non dess 278000423 mpem that worked with the timing spec for both the 657x original engine, and the 717 (720) motor. Both engines use the same part number 4-wire stator/flywheel combination. That mpem was also DESS capable for the '95XP. Get a wire diagram from the...

These have dangling lines with a filter in tank from fuel bafel. These rot away. The two oil pump to rotary cover also rot away. Gas (use non-ethanol) can also go bad, so use a fuel additive. Air/oxygen is cause. The bafel breath lines or one-way valves can also go bad, check these and gas cap...

SURGING is caused by: 1 . not enough fuel, too much air. Remedy: rebuild carb(s) disassembly required. 2. air is leaking into the fuel supply suction side. Remedy: check hose & clamps from bafel to carb, and the pulse hose. Bills86e

A small squirt bottle of pre-mix fuel works well after ski sits in an idle storage. Remove the rubber air-box plug to give a shot. A glass fuel filter after the carbs, in the return line will help determine a fuel circulatory system leakage. The carb pump sucks fuel from the tank baffel then...

Good Job, You deserve all the credit!

Use a spark checker while cranking. Symtom suggests a wire harness electrical problem or crack/broken pick-up bracket in stator. Bills86e

Suggest you remove the cylinders head and investigate. Always fog your engines before store. Best to prolong an engines life. Re-torque to spec.

Post the compression on your 657cc engine. Do you do carbs every year, and replace the two oil spigot lines on RV cover? Is the engine hot or very hot to touch when this occurs.? Do you have a clear glass fuel filter AFTER the carbs (to see if circulatory system running out of fuel) Keep in mind...

these are NOT rave valve engines!!!!

Each year has a "set" of electronics-stator-flywheel. So you must use the full set. These "sets" will work with either engine. 5 wire/timing VS 4 wire. Bills86e

What motor is in the '95XP, 717 or 787? 717 uses mineral oil, 787 uses synthetic xps, Seadoo (Bombardier) engine oils.

Heres a few. Replace the 3/32" id iol lines while down there and prime the oil pump. Grease the two zerks, pto & drive. Might be time to change fuel lines and pulse, as these may have cracks and loose connectors. Check exhaust couplers, any engine compartment leaks will cause your issue. If you...

Here is a parts link that shows what - where the missing parts. http://partsfinder.onlinemicrofiche.com/seadooforums/showmodel.asp?Type=13&make=seadoopwc&a=18&b=6&c=0&d=-ENGINE-SUPPORT-W/-MUFFLER-AND-SHORT-BLOCK

There are many veriables when a power loss occures. Best to look at last thing worked on, then the regular normal maintenance inspections, and do not ride it until this is solved. Determine if you can, mechanical, electrical, or a fuel system issue. Try to post the exact symptoms and...
