2006 Sea-Doo Sportster 4-TEC SCIC

[steveanson]

Hello all - As I've looked at different online SeaDoo parts suppliers, I see for the 2006 Sportster 150, an Edition 1 and Edition 2. How do I determine which edition I have? Is there a serial # difference for the two? Thanks, Steve

generally... it's what part of the world it was built in. Unfortunately... I'm not sure what version you have. You may want to ask a dealer.

Thanks to much - I'll put that on my list of questions for the dealer.

Did some searching around and found this...

Assuming the info is correct, sounds like you will have your answer...

Edition1 has an 04/05 type motor/electronics setup, and the Edition2 has a 2006+ type motor/electronics setup. You can tell by the front oil pump, the head breather/TOPS valve location/type. Or according to the manual, and the 2 I've looked at, the 4th from last letter of the VIN. If the 4th from last letter is an "A" you have a version1 and you need an 05 ECU part# 420664947, and if it is a "B" it "should be a version2 and you will need an 06-07 ECU part# 420664946. The VIN should tell you, but go by the type of engine in it to be sure.

What we could do is, get a few pics of the 04/05 engine compartment and some of the various 06 models and we should be able to figure it out I would think...

Joe, thanks a lot, I'll check your SN information and try to take pics and post them. That may be a challenge, or at least resizing them on a new laptop. I'll try soon, Steve

I have noticed one thing that is different than what is pictured in my owners manual: my threaded flush port is on the starboard side, while the manual show's it on the port side. I don't know if this makes any difference in the edition of this boat...

No issues,,,,

We all learn as we go. That is why I try to do additional searches and what not. I'll never own a 2-stroke as I love my 4-tec engines. But I am a knowledge junkie when it comes to mechanics and how things work....
