    RESTO 99 Challenger 1800 - SEADOO REDO

    The water regulator was faulty and stuck in the down position not allowing water to enter the exhaust which in turn melted the exhaust tube preventing water from exiting the boat. This allowed the ending to take a gulp of water which is what marks were from. The reason the water regulator failed...

    RESTO 99 Challenger 1800 - SEADOO REDO

    It did die at 3/4 throttle. Also when i got the new top end on and started, it dumped about 3 gallons of water onto my garage floor. I had no water inside the engine when i removed the jugs

    The head was caked with 2 stroke oil so i know the oil wasn't the issue. After I put the new top end on I disconnected every water line and blew it out. I also replaced the water regulators so I'm with you on that one

    To be honest i have no idea what the compression was lol I pulled the rave, saw the scratches and said no way its staying like that no matter what the compression is. The PTO doesn't have scratches you can feel. Its smooth as a babies booty

    A failed water regulator caused the exhaust to collapse and it took a gulp of water.

    RESTO 99 Challenger 1800 - SEADOO REDO

    Well after a short ride, I lost the top end of my starboard side motor. I have investigated the heck out of it and I have no clue what happen. All fuel lines are tight, fuel filters are clean and fuel is moving freely, no leaks on the base gaskets of the carbs and the list goes on. If you look...
