    How important in TC-W3 oil?

    Amsoil Injector oil is bluish green and should not be used. Amsoil Interceptor is a golden color and meets the necessary requirements. Adam - dead cats don't meow. they just swing around.

    First time PWC buyer, looking for advice/pitfalls to avoid

    just be aware that in a few places, the tree huggers are pushing a ban of older 2 stroke PWC's because they don't meet newer emission standards. unlikely that you are affected, but worth verifying before buying. If a seller doesn't want you to do a compression test he is most likely trying to...

    Necessary to dry start after being on water all day?

    not sure if this helps or not but thus is my setup, very cheap and not extremely heavy. Leave the ski on the ramp at you uncles beach.

    Dr Honda's PWC's for sale.

    Really surprised that no one has jumped at this opportunity to pick up what you know are perfect running skis. Personally, I'd really like to take the Polaris off Doc's hands but don't have the room for it. I like to do 180 spins on my GSX's but I did one on Doc's Polaris once without even...

    Weird throttle bog 717- Need Help!

    mine would bog about 3500 RPM, then take off and run fine at WOT for about 30 seconds then RPMs would just suddenly drop to 4000 and bog/barely run, then take off for another 30 seconds. Pulled the red wire off rectifier, ran great.

    Amsoil injection good or bad ?

    Wrong Oil. The Amsoil Injector is No Ash. You want Amsoil Interceptor which is Low Ash and will burn cleaner. The Injector oil will gunk up your Raves,

    Adding rear view mirrors

    People have different opinions of the usefulness of rear view mirrors. I have them on both my skis (they were added by the PO), but frankly I don't rely on them for anything much more than checking if my wife is still within site. If I'm making a turn across the water, I'm not risking that I...

    Hello. I need some advice on our 96 Seadoo GTX?

    running great then just suddenly died - I would look for a simple loose wire before shelling out big buck. Same thing happened to me a couple years ago. My ski was running great then just suddenly stopped running, I knew it had to be an electrical issue so opened the rear E-box and sure enough...

    seadoo 1996 gsx 787 engine runs hot.

    confirm your pee hole isn't just plugged with sand with a small piece of wire. remove and disassemble the water control valve on the muffler (the thing that looks like a RAVE), it has a needle valve in the bottom that could also be plugged with sand and block the flow of water to the tuned pipe

    GTX leaking water, cavitation issues

    if there is too much back and forth play in the driveshaft, it could be that the rubber bumpers on the ends of the driveshaft are missing
