Took it out for the second time this year at the lake and after about 45 min rpms dropped and max speed went to 10 mph. Then went into Maint. mode. Got it to shore and checked plugs and one was wet. Replaced the plugs rode for 45 min the next day. Today after riding for about 2 hrs it did the same thing and the plug is wet again. What else do I need to check.
Thanks for any help.
 
correct plugs

It is just the front plug, will re-check the gap. Will check compression psi tomorrow. Fuel injected so no carb. Could it be a fuel problem?

Got it last summer had to replace regulator the next week. Ran for about 15 hours last year on previous plugs.
Live in Central Alabama so it does not get real cold here. For winter added fuel stabalizer and filled gas and seadoo oil made sure all water was out.
 
update

Did compression test about 140psi front and back. It is actually both plugs fouling out and oil on tip. Replaced plugs and 20 min later it limped to dock. Cleaned RAVE valves and they were nasty and sticking the red center was screwed in all the way. Thought it could be a clogged fuel injector but it is both ends. Maybe a bad sensor causing the mixture to be wrong? 150 Hrs on it, 127 when we bought last July so I am not sure what maintanence had been done.
Any help would be appreciated.
 
yes oil on tester.

Both plugs getting oil on them, if an innner seal were leaking wouldn't it just cause oil on one plug? I thought the oil might be left over from the spark plugs fouling. Thanks for the response
 
not yet

Had it out for 1-2 hrs about 2 weeks before I started having problems so I assumed the stabalized fuel would have caused the problem on the first outing. I had planned to try a few more things this week and replacing the gas was one, maybe it should have been the first thing but I hated to waste a full tank. Thanks
 
inner seal

If I put towel over plug holes put throttle in WOT and start it should not blow any oil, is that correct. If it blows oil then I have a leaking seal between the top and bottom. Is this correct.
New to seadoos and trying to learn as I go. Thanks for any help.
