Hi guys.
I'm new to the forum and to jet skis.
I'm picking up my first ski tomorrow, it's the 2000 rx millennium edition 2 stroke.
Now the guy is selling as he is fed up with it! He says all he has had is problems with it.
1. He had to change the ecu, something to do with loosing keys and only having a trainer key and the shop he used did not have the equipment to reprogram the key as the ecu was full of codes so he had to get another ecu and program that!
( to me this sounds really silly and an expensive way of sorting that problem. :/ )
2. The throttle cable stuck wide open throttłe so he had to get that changed over for a new throttle cable or throttle assembly.
3. Starter motor packed in while out at sea and the ski cut out or something and he couldn't start it back up to get to shore.
To me theese problems just sound like little hick ups! It's not something that would put me off buying.
Now he's had all these problems fixed but he is sick of the ski and he keeps worrying about what's going to go wrong next.
So with this being my first ski could you guys tell me the common faults if any?
Also how to I maintain and look after the ski?
And lastly the only thing that dosnt see to work at the moment is the speedo , what could be the cause of this?
Big thanks Fosta
