Need help wit 1995 Seadoo XP

[jpn275]

I'm having a problem with my '95 XP. After starting the engine, my rpms keep climbing until I shut it down. Any suggestions of how to correct the problem?

Throttle position?

What's the position of the throttle? At idle on land, you should run about 3k rpm.
If your throttle plate is stuck wide open, then you'll have to take it apart and clean the bushing.

The throttle position and cables are all free and working. I put the ski in the water and it operated fine. When I hooked it up to flush it after being in the salt water, it worked fine. So I don't know what the problem was, but I no longer have the problem. Thanks anyway.
