Hello. I just bought two 1996 seadoo gtx a couple months ago
The ski I’m having issues with was basically rebuilt before I bought it.
New engine. Oil pump bypassed so now I have to premix.
Rebuilt carb
New battery.
1st trip out ski ran great until we breaked for lunch. After lunch, it would rev all the way up but not move, very heavy vibration. This lasted about twenty minutes and then started running fine again.
trip two -had the same problem symptoms for the first ten minutes, ran great the rest of the day even after stopping for lunch.
Trip 3 today - same problem symptoms for first ten minutes, ran fine until lunch. After lunch, ski would not rev past 3000 rpms and moved at a crawl. Would not improve and is still in that state.
I’ve pulled the pump off and there was nothing caught in impeller. Also changed pump oil while it was off. Wear ring also does not seem damaged, and ski will crank and rev fine out of water.
any ideas?
