Hi guys, i was hoping someone could help me with my 2001 GTX RFI. It has no rev range between 4300 and 5800rpm whilst ski is in the water...even when you go through the throttle up it goes from idle 1850rpm to 4300rpm but then you have no more power on throttle for a bit then all of a sudden jumps to 5800 rpm then good throttle till flat out 7000rpm.. same on powering down jumps from 5800 rpm back down to 4300rpm... i can't get it to rev in between these limits... so the ride is either too slow or too fast... i have taken it to my local seadoo dealer who has gone through the ski and can't find the problem.. says they've tried everything even changing parts off second hand skis that run perfectly... to no avail. so looks like its up to me to fix it.. they didn't charge me for it which was good of them i thought but the next dealer/tech is 1500 km's away. The problem only happens in the water... when you connect the hose to flush the ski it revs through the range perfectly... the techs' computer says it is running perfectly.. tps setting is good... clean fuel tank and filters... fresh fuel..clean oil and filters... cleaned injectors. new battery and leads and good earth lead. Checked rave valves and fuelpump/fuel/oil lines/ checked computer..and wiring loom.. new plugs... cdi is good.. nice blue sparks on both.. compression is perfect no water in the engine... starts first go. Same problem with one, two or 3 people on ski... it's got me stuffed? If the tech can't fix it where does this leave me? I had the same ski previously which had exactly the same problem and the problem just vanished.... i was hoping the same with this one but after 20 hours of use problem is still there... please help? Has anyone else had the same problem as me with their ski?
