98 gsx limited carburetor lines routing

[markmuldoon]

I just finished cleaning the carbs and replacing fuel lines but there’s one line that wasn’t connected when I bought the ski and I don’t know where it goes.

From the side of the pto carb it tees to the mag carb then goes? Looks like vacuum line.

Thanks
Mark

That looks like your battery vent line for acid batteries. See if runs to the hull .

You have a "Grey Ghost". They are registered as 98GSX's but are referred to as 97 1/2 or 97.5. In Seadoo terms its the 5625 I think. Anyway it is the first production 951 and therefore the one that BRP had to register with the EPA. Those hoses went to an electric solenoid that would kick in and lean out the mixture. Just leave them off the carbs and you will be fine.

How long did it take you to rebuild the carbs. Need to do mine on my gsx

The first time taking the carbs off took an hour. The second time took 10 minutes.

I mean how long to rebuild them. Taking them off is the easy bit lol

 

[markmuldoon]

I didn’t do a full rebuild. Cleaned filters, jets and changed out the tempo lines. Took a couple hours on the bench.

Oh right so worries. Think my carbs need a clean so was gonna do a rebuild on them but never done it before
