    2018 seadoo gti 90 check engine and shut off

    Try also to press the set button 5 times. Maybe that will display the codes. I could check tomorrow on mine as I have the same model (but I do not have fault codes). Also, remove the seat and have a visual check-up of coolant, wires, or tubes. Also check oil level and check bottom of hull for...

    2018 seadoo gti 90 check engine and shut off

    I think you can read the code by pressing your start button for more than 5 seconds. Try that (Internet search): "If you have an active fault code, press MODE button until the it reaches the last menu (FAULT CODES), push the SET button and then scroll UP and DOWN through the codes if you have...

    Wont Run

    On these engine and rotary valve, if timing is off by a bit the ski will be very hard to start. Also, you will not be able to accelerate easily as it could take a long time to reach maximum speed (if ever capable).

    Neutral hard to find

    If you have the reverse with a big lever under the handle bar and close to the left of the small compartment, it is effectively hard to find the neutral.

    Are 2 strokes really THAT bad?

    And maybe I could add the last thing to think about: new 4 strokes don't pollute as much as 2 strokes. The new ones are low emissions. No oil spill in the lake and no smoke.

    I would invert the rope and chain.

    Are 2 strokes really THAT bad?

    I have both and I like both for different reasons. Newer 4 stroke: more stability, better hull, feels more reliable. Older 2 stroke: fun to ride, engine has a bit more kick at middle throttle. But of course, I think 2 strokes are really on the way out because the more recent ones are nearly 15...

    2002 gti question.

    My GTI LE 2003 still rocks on a 215 hours engine replaced in 2015. Very reliable. Not the most powerful. Treat it well and it will work a long time.

    anchor storage

    Let me repeat what I always say. A light Sea-Doo anchor is sufficient when there is no wind at all but in waves, wind or chop, it may not do the job. One advice I was told from a guy in the Navy and that works very well (they do that for larger ships he said): 1. Buy the anchor and cut the...

    Sucked up cast net through intake grate on Fish Pro.

    This is kind of weird, this is the second story I hear in a week about the grate hard to remove or impossible to remove bolts (the other case was a stripped bolt). Aside from the stuff being stuffed there could be wear ring issues, even shaft bearing I was told for the other guy. The other guy...

    Methanol | How much is too much?

    If you have a full tank you will be able to dose it better. Question, how this water got in?

    Buying a 99 SPX

    You got lucky!!! As for the low speed screw, I also gave it a 1/8 th turn and it was more prime when I got my new carb. Guess it was running a little lean.

    2002 GTX 4 Tec

    As per manual, 2 short beeps means that the key has been recognized and that the engine is ready to start. When you get a long beep first, it means an issue with the key, DESS post or ECU. However the manual doesn't describe two short beeps followed by a long beep. However, if you press the...

    Poor guy (brand new Sea-Doo tale)

    Most likely not the blades because the rope didn't make it up to there (I saw it). It was sucked from the intake grate. Shaft bearings: a bit too my fear. Wear ring: most likely. Not my ski... phew... but the husband is frustrated. He know he will have to have it fixed (especially that it is...

    Pulling the trigger on a 2019 Sea-Doo GTX Limited 300 + Sound System...Comments?

    He He. Different boat, different problems! Good luck. BTW, the local marina here only sells 91 octane.

    Gas in oil tank

    Yes you should worry. Oil is oil, gas is gas. The mixture is calculated. By diluting oil and gas in the oil tank, that oil mixture is definitely changed. BTW, never heard of someone doing that. What was he thinking? Start with that first: does your engine turn by hand? Remove the plugs and the...

    Reading key problem. HELP

    At this point, I think you have nothing to lose. I wish I had experience with your more recent model but the handle bar can be removed for sure (I am still a bit surprised that you are having this issue on a 2014 model though). Don't go crazy about cutting wires but make very sure that your job...
