Seadoo RX Carburetor Removal-Help Please

[smithy692005]

Hey all,

my ski has recently started to foul one plug-the right one if you are looking from carb side, while the other plug was fine.

i have changed the plugs and the same is happening after just 1hr run time.

the ski has also recently started to bog down at about 3.2k revs if throttling gradually.

if i boot it however it responds better with only the slightest of bogging.

anyway-have been advised to take carbs off, unless you guys think its anything else???

now, im no mechanic-nor am i mechanicly minded but i like to try anything, so far i have moved the air intake out of the way (removed from carbs but cant seem to take it completely out as its catching on something-probably carbs lol)

i have managed to remove the choke cable (although i dont think i have done it right-i unbolted the swivel spring loaded mechanism on both carbs to remove cable)

i have also removed pulse line and i think fuel inlet line (line above pulse line)

but i have no idea on how to remove the throttle cable as it runs underneath carbs so im stumoed--thats the only problem, i need to see what im doin lol

you should check compression first.

to remove the carbs you need to remove airbox completely, unbolt the black elec box that is hanging up high, there are 10mm bolts that go through the rear grab hand mount and let it rest down low, no need to unplug anything. then remove battery and it will come right out, remove the side tubes as well by pulling them on the rubber posts on the ex manifold. to remove choke cable, you should use 2mm allen wrench to loosen the set screws, you can just unscrew the 4 main bolts that hold the carbs in and twist the carbs so you can easily get to the throttle cable and fuel line to remove.

lol

I advise you to remove the RAVEs for cleaning. Pure indication of a stuck valve.
