I agree and that is why I asked the wholesaler what was his best battery for this application. 100 more CCA for $20 more and a longer life time.

Found the best battery today at my wholesale supplier for $99. It is a Deka AGM battery #ETX30L . It is about 5/8 inch shorter than original so I cut some rubber to fill in the tie down strap gap. It has about 100 more AMPS cranking power and should last twice as long. Put them in and the...

After a long slow battery charge the ski that has been clicking is starting sometimes but when it does it gives a F T code followed by 5 dashes or flashes on the instrument cluster. Can someone tell me where to find the answer to what the 5 flashes FT code means?

I am looking for the absolute best marine replacement with the highest CCA and Reserve capacity available so it may last as long as possible. Any suggestions on brands and fitment number? These skis have a definite confined battery compartment area and strap. THANKS!

Hi, Just researching the best battery for a 2006 GTI SE ski as a replacement (four stroke -naturally aspirated). Also, where can I buy a replacement solenoid for the same. I charged my batteries ( I have two skis) and they both checked out at 12.3 -12.4 volts but one is clicking at the...

I'm not certain of that though but it will crank by doing that. I know, that is how I got here in the first place by not being certain of what I should have known all along???? My BAD!!

Thanks for the info/advice. I did keep batteries out of ski's and on trickle chargers over winter. That one ski-switch was acting up last year also, so it may be the solenoid or switch. Will do checks as advised THANKS ! Hoping to ride them this weekend - YAAAYYY!

Thanks guys, I did finally get it to start and did a cheap oil change and will do several for the next few trips out. It sure is easy to siphon out but seems not to efficient nor complete a process. Oh well, cheaper oil for the next few changes and I found K&N filters for $11 at O'Reilly's...

Got synthetic Mobil 1, 0-40wt. for $4.00 qt. at AutoZone on sale. Still haven't gotten engine to crank/run on own yet. Still getting water out/cylinders cleaned out. I am having trouble with battery or start switch causing a clicking and not always spinning over with sparkplugs in...

Quick follow up question on oil brand/ type? My dealer has the BRP XPS 4 synthetic blend @ $50 a gallon!!!-Yikes. IS this the only oil I should consider using or is there another regular brand at auto dealers that will do the same job ? I have looked on an old gallon jug to get SFI rating...

THANKS Joe and others, for the clarification, I wish I'd been told that by the previous owner but he actually told me to always connect the hose , open and then crank, which makes sense for a land engine guy like me. I also have a 1976 Evinrude 115 OB boat which we always hook up the foot...

Sorry for the duplication post, thanks for the advise / help in the other forum w/ answers. I should have joined and been reading since last year. I just got these skis so my 3 teenage girls can love the water as much as I did growing up and still do! Appreciate kind/helpful and...

So I just reread my post and asking for clarity/ confirmation on my ignorance,,,???? Always start and have Ski's running before turning on hose --- and always shut off hose before killing engines ??? I have to (use hose to hook up and) test run before we head out on one hour drive to lake...

Thanks for the replys and I think you set me straight already. Yesterday I did turn on the hose first and started the engines right away as I had done last year with no problems then. (I have been reading online shop manual last two hours) Apparantly, I took too long on starting the second...

Have two 2006 GTI Se's PWC jet ski's, 135 hp 4 strokes with only 70 hrs, very clean and new like. Just got them out of garage from overwinter to start. One started , runs fine. THE other would not start and finally pulled spark plugs to check and have water on plugs. Spun over engine...
