I have a seadoo 1992 xp which i love. it runs like a champ.
well here goes.....
Last week a freind of mine called me and told me he was wanting to get rid of his jetski. He had a 1999 polaris genesis 1200 fuel injected. He was tired of looking at it and sold it to me for 200 dollars. At first i said to my self if i can get it running i have made out pretty good. well it was a very clean machine but it had been sitting for 2 years. so i didnt know what i was in for. well i brought it home. put a battery in it and sure as it could happen the motor was seized. well i had someone told me to put marvel mystery oil in it and try to free the pistons up . i did that and for three days tried it and with no luck only 2 of the three pistons would free up. I became fed up with it and decided to try to sell it and if i couldnt sell it i would part it out. well after no luck on selling it i was about to part it out when someone called me and asked if i still had it. I said yes and they wanted to know if i would be willing to trade even steven for a 1993 yamaha waverunner that ran. i said to my self I paid 200 dollars for one that didnt run and now have the opportunity to get one that runs . I traded and it runs like a champ. it has 125 psi per piston. is that a proper pressure? Its a 500cc. I dont know much about them. can anyone tell me anything about them? i am planning on the wife using that one and me using the seadoo. Did i screw up?
