I'm new.....what can I say`

[Hoss]

Folks, I was recently presented with a 91 Seadoo SP and a 92 SeaDoo XP for nothing...The deal was, if I can get them running, they're mine.

Well getting them running was simple.

Put them in the water, and after a couple trial runs with the SP, it's coming out of the hole and planing, very nicely...

The XP is another issue. It tachs up no problem, but there's a vibration in this that is not in the SP, and although water is coming out of the back (It steers OK)...there's now "get up and go"...more throttle only results in more vibration.

I'm new at these, and although I think it's the impeller, I cannot confirm before I go spending.

Anybody help with confirmation, or other things I should be looking at?

In short, the motor and steering work fine, it's just the propulsion system I think?

Cheers

Hoss

Welcome to the seadoo forum Hoss. It might be the wear ring that is in need of replacement. Here are the specs; Wear Ring clearance for your seadoo 1.0 mm or (.040in) Measure the clearance at the center of the impeller blades, with a 12” long gauge. Measure the clearance from the venturi side of the jet pump.

Do you have a seadoo shop manual? If not here’s an idea for you. You could join as a "premium member". As a premium member you can down load a authentic seadoo manual from the seadoo manual library. In the library is a variety of manuals for almost all years and models. You can view as many as you like on line as a PDF file, or download it and print it for your personal and private use. There are operator manuals and repair manuals for you to do your own repairs on your seadoo. The repair manuals have everything from troubleshooting, repair procedures to winterizing. It contains wire diagrams torque specs and pictures for disassemble and assemble instructions. In the spec sheets it tells everything needed to maintain oil changes, spark plug gaps, carburetor rebuilds and impeller wear ring tolerances.
