Pressure Behind Oil Cap- Oil Leak

[devonte007]

Seems like you did everything by the book but no additional oil. Got me scratching my head too....

The only other thing I can suggest is maybe the oil filler cap was on and air could not get in to let the additional oil drain into the pan? Take off the oil fill cap and crank it over again too see if any new oil appears.

Ha that will have to wait till the fall, I went ahead and refilled it after scratching my head for 30 mins.

I pulled the 2 valve discs, 2 springs and 2 C clips from the TOPS valve and re-installed it. Nothing was left except the main brass stem. She is breathing nice and free now . Still waiting on a new valve cover gasket, I figured I would just replace it since the back cover is still off.

Got the valve cover off and everything looks really good inside, no rust and all clean. IT got dark so didn't get the new gasket back in. I did check the new oil filters I put in and they were still clean with no signs of gunk or black stuff like I found before. Hoping the p.o. just didn't change them and its nothing major.

Nice job, sounds like you are a few small steps away from hitting the water in force :thumbsup:

Yea I want to run the gas tank empty and refill with some fresh 89 gas. Hoping for a good summer, fingers crossed!!

Had her out for 3 hrs on Friday with no more engine lights. FIXED !!!!!

That's great to hear, enjoy the rest of summer!

no seadoo expert but could you not find the actual hose and connect a guage to verify the 6psi pressure which would lead to the conclusion that the pressure control what ever it is telling that valve to open or stay open. sounds bypassing it works now the only thing is why? signal to valve issue or something in that effect.

It got the signal, computer would not let it re open. Just bypassed it since it's not needed anyways in a boat.
