New ski missing parts

A couple of suggestions and questions:
1. Do yourself a favor and leave the oil injection system on the ski, it's very easy to maintain, a new filter every couple of years and new 3/32" tygon injector line, and use API-TC synthetic injector oil is usually all that is required. If you remove the oil injection you'll us twice as much oil, the ski will smoke, you'll be fouling spark plugs, there is really no good reason to remove it.
2. Does your ski still have grey tempo fuel lines?

Will leave the injection system in place but will also run premix for the first tank just to ensure that im getting oil as i have no idea if the injection pump is any good, and i do have the stock gray lines they are coming off as soon as i fire it up and verify that it will in fact run.

i agree with the comments on oil inj, as long as you KNOW for sure its working. you'll probably know right away since if your doubling up, it will probably smoke like a mother ! (not to mention if crank seals are leaking, you'll scare your neighbors, they will think your garage is on fire)
but 2x check to be sure its working, and again, they are generally considered very reliable.
I ran premix from day one, but I was an old school yamaha rider so I was very comfortable premixing, and didn't think twice about it, and honestly even with all my riding, I never fouled a set of plugs. (even on my present yami, which I premix very thick at 32-1, i'm still on my original set of plugs and i've put almost 70 hours on the ski)
would I premix my next seadoo ? you betcha.... i don't care about the smoke, its behind me... and I prefer to burn an extra $50 in oil every 6 months to a year over the cost of an engine, but that's just me, and my personal preference. (and I prefer amsoil just to throw that out, check out the dealer trial for $10 and have it shipped right to your door)
re: tempo, they must go, and if it run's during your "test" but run's poorly, they might be the cause, even yanking one line and looking for green goo will tell you immediately if your looking at some bad lines, but even if they look clean, if you plan on holding onto the ski, they must go.

Ok guys, how can I test my mpem? I've got my electrical all hooked up, minus the ignition coil, and a fresh battery at +12v, the small wire on the rear box is grounded, I think my key may be bad but I'm not sure at all, it's doing absolutely nothing

Hit the start button a few times with the key off the post; the gauges should pop up....push it 5 times it should short then long beep.
If it doesnt..
Check that the small red wires in the rear ebox are on the same side of the solenoid as the battery. Also nothing will happen if your ground wires are unhooked or the connector on the front of the motor is plugged in.

Lol yes... That didn't make sense. Yes it needs to be plugged in

Made my maiden voyage today, New to me mpem, rave valves, coil, and a few other little details and she's riding like a champ. My first Seadoo, I was more than a little surprised in the power in these things, shout out the Jose at jet thrust for the hook up, two keys programmed for free. Now to do the rest of the little things, anybody know how many feet of fuel line I need to replace all the gray bullshit?
