Please help me, I have been pulling out my hair trying to solve a ventilation issue with my buddies 05 Speedster 370. I told him I would help him out as I used to work for a dealer years ago and imagined in my mind that a quick wear ring replacement would have him back on the water. WRONG!
What the boat is doing- When applying throttle to plane the boat the port engine ventilates bad until the the boat rises on plane then catches water and all is fine. However, while trying to plane the boat, I turn to the left or right, the ventilation stops and both engines work properly.
What I have done-
1st- inspected impeller and wear ring (no visible damage)
2nd- replaced wear rings and switched pumps from port to starboard.
3rd- removed inlet grate in case it was causing cavitation.
4th- replaced boot, floating ring and carbon seal
5th- poured the silicone to every through hull fastener, cable I could find.
The problem will not go away, I have had a dealer contact Seadoo tech and they have no answers, I am hoping that someone here has gone through a similar experience and solved the issue!
Thanks in advance for any help.
