New owner 95 seadoo xp some ?'s

[Nicks5.2]

First off, Hi, I'm a new owner to anything watercraft. I'm not new to mechanics but this things got me a little confused. So all the fuel lines are grey and I read those should be replaced. I'm going to buy fuel line today.

On to my ?'s.

There appears to be oil in the hull. Only reason I say appears to be oil is because it smells like gas but is real dark like oil.

Next is I've always disliked oil injection because it doesn't bother me to premix and I like the peace of mind. Is there a simple "plug these lines and run premix" method in case I want to hook it back up?

just get the block off plate kit. Very cheap, and you can put it back to stock if you want to

Ok any ideas on the oil in the hull? How should I get it out? Can I fill it with a little water and work the bilge pumps or something? I want it all out.

Use Castrol Super Clean, dilute about 50% spray it on, elevate the ski, remove the drain plug, hose it out.

Thanks for the help. I'll clean the hull today. And I'll get a pic or two up tomorrow.

Can anyone tell me why it won't start? It cranks, sparks, ~120psi on both cyl, all fuel lines clear, and I disassembled the carbs to clean/inspect. They looked great. The plugs show nothin but oil. Why isn't the gas being drawn into the motor?
