    96 GSX Knowledge Needed

    Its my understanding that the 96 gsx already has the 782 110 hp motor or at least thats what I have read. The zeeltronics is a interesting to look into at least. Im still working with the guy either Im busy or he is and I dont think its going anywhere. Part of the deal is a double trailer and a...

    96 GSX Knowledge Needed

    Good to know. Weather has been funky and wet so have not had a chance to visit with the guy but regardless of how that goes a GSX is what I have been looking for so the more knowledge I have the better.

    96 GSX Knowledge Needed

    Thanks for the input and ya 500 bucks was the number. The ski is faded and I only got a few minutes for a walk around. But It looks complete. Ill get a closer look and actually I have a Candoo for the key but I think the software is out of date. I have a spare key for the GTI that would be a...

    96 GSX Knowledge Needed

    Thanks for the input and I agree the key is everything. As I have learned Seadoo used a different brain every chance they got. And some years where very specific and hard to come by these days. As for the 96 its probably the most forgiving when it comes to one off parts I may be wrong. I need to...

    787 RFI Rave Valve ??

    Well but it on the water last night and it ran pretty good. After a hour or so with throttle variation laid into briefly and the mid range throttle was impressive. So I dont think I need to do anything other than get more seat time and maybe a impeller upgrade next summer. I have a couple ?s...

    787 RFI Rave Valve ??

    Ok I have educated myself a bit. I have cleaned the blades but never took the diaphragm apart. So 2 springs 1 under and larger on top. Cleaned things up and appears to hold vacuum. But my error when you install the outer spring and cap it does seat the blade and I assume the exhaust pressure...

    Piston Ring Gap 787 RFI

    Thanks for the input. I felt pretty good about it. Once I got the jug back on and looked down in the hole you cant hardly see the top gap. So Im hoping to have things put together buy the end of the day or tomorrow. Sadly the oil tank has leaked for years and I did not secure the oil hose well...

    older 2 stroke

    A lot of service shops are getting away from 2 Smokes. A shame really but my local Seadoo dealer does not work on them anymore. I took my RFI in for a throttle position sensor reset a few years back and it ran funky when I got back. Nothing I could not figure out but they said they where not...

    Piston Ring Gap 787 RFI

    Well for those that are interested I figured it would be fine but spent a few minutes on the phone with a buddy that does machine work and he said if it was his he would run it. I fit the other same size. After a few minutes of discussion and a comment that the hair on your head is a couple of...

    Piston Ring Gap 787 RFI

    Well slowly putting things back to in place. I needed to file the rings to fit and filed one larger than spec. The manual says .016 to .022 SAE and I have one at .023 maybe .024. I thought I would ask the crew. I can order another set of rings Im sure but more down time. So let me know you...

    Well Im a Idiot.

    Good morning again thanks for the input Im 15 minutes late getting out the door but RFI LE GTI 787 I have a 6 hole base gasket. I know theres some math required but I thought I would ask the supply house to throw in a 4 hole gasket if I can get it alone. I have read do's and don'ts but I thought...

    Well Im a Idiot.

    Well looks like I got lucky. The stator Cyl. is smooth other than some heat color and the PTO side has what Im hoping for is mild scratch's. I have been taking things apart and putting them back together all my life and have made a few mistakes but I guess getting older and maybe a distraction...

    Well Im a Idiot.

    Well after finding a loose stator causing not only charging issue but performance problems I installed a good used front cover with stator. Buttoned everything up and it ran great. I post this earlier now I realized I left out the oil pump drive I feel like a meathead. Im sure that was the...

    1996 GSX Voltage Issues

    Just note on my 03 RFI unit the stator was loose with one bolt broken. I dont have a real solid history of the ski other than it looks like a maybe a SBT motor when bought. Needless to charging a performance issues.
