    2000 gtx rfi

    The top fitting has a connector for your rotary valve drive case return line and one for a vent. The vent should have a short piece of tubing and then a check valve. There are manuals that may help you online, parts views, operators and shop manuals. Check out sea-doo.net

    Difficulty starting after roll over - 97 GTI

I wanted to verify that the oil pump is working accurately before I fire this thing up. According to the book I am supposed to rotate the shaft counter-clockwise at...

    2001 GTX RFI Water Control Valve

    Hello.. I have read several threads in more than one form discussing the "adjustment" of the water flow regulator on the water box. Most of these very wisely point to the default "regulator valve is adjusted at the factory and should not be adjusted". However, I have a recently purchased ski...
