It is possible to drill and extract the broken piece, but it’s hard to do

Thanks for watching! I’m thinking about only offering reusable shrink covers next year. I’d earn less from it but it would save a lot of plastic trash. Here’s a vid I made recently th-cam.com/video/LsqX-opBzr0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=9LVW-mH_YYIE4sgy

Watercraft have wet exhaust systems which tend to make the spark plugs rusty and hard to remove. Not always, but I've come across many stuck plugs

So it doesn't trigger a fault code

Thanks Brian! Did you winterize yours yet?

I don't charge extra for Sparks, even though it takes a little longer. I've figured out a system that makes it fairly easy to do by myself th-cam.com/video/9bofn8R1gcY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=mHvMIRya5pPMQTP1

I believe the "marry" option is engaged when you enter the vin. If they don't match the program prompts you on start up. Ask the folks in this Facebook group, they're very helpful and know more about BuDS than I do ~ Buds Facebook Group Link ~ facebook.com/share/g/VMJLFtB7zbSLTebd/?mibextid=K35XfP

Thanks for watching! I shouldn't have looked up how much we use, now I can't unsee it 🤦‍♂️ If this cover holds up I'll start selling them to my clients. I am a little skeptical about how waterproof the sewn seams will be. we'll see...

Thank you for watching! Fogging definitely helps keep the top end happy. I fog my JS550 after every ride... I have an old set of plugs I swap in so the good set won't get fouled

​@@ccjetsports y was doing that in my old 951 skis, xp, rx, gp1300r 4 diferent years and so, ewen if y dont ride 15 20 days i was fogging engine and all around ewery bolt with WD40 on old skis... Y em new in four stroke, and was thinking its not necesary because of closed cooling sistem, now y understand, how have get this sommer bad looking plugs,... because y do oil change ewery 20 25 hours, and flush, rins and spray jetski ewery day with XPS lube when ride, and once a week salt away flush... But living in Europe in Croatia where Sea have so much salt, that's crazy... and plus my house is in first line 5 meters from Sea and, Croatia is rain state humidity is all around, but in Spring and sommer is top top... you must came hier its not too far 😂😂😂😅😅😅 Thanks for video because thats wil save my engine, in that stupid cold wether couple months..😢😢😢🤧🤧

​@@driftmania8553 Hopefully I'll get to visit there someday! We're mostly salt water here too. makes it hard to work on them, especially the Yamaha jet pumps

​@@ccjetsports you are welcome to my hometown Selce, without money for App because of that engine save info... its small fish village, at the end off the coast, beautyful...

Thanks for watching!

Thanks!!!

Thanks for watching! I don't unhook the cable or disconnect the wiring. I remove the gas cap to make it easier to raise and pull the deck back towards the rear a few inches. I've been doing it this way for years with no issues. Here's one from a couple weeks ago th-cam.com/video/9bofn8R1gcY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=FXbW4maoEp4TLPye&t=230

Thanks for watching! Any suggestions for new videos I can make?

@@ccjetsports Kawasaki ultra LX reverse cable replacement

We'll get that done this winter :)

On most motors you choke out the engine by spraying through the intake. I go through the injector holes because it's easy on SeaDoos, but the manual just says spray down the cylinders with XPS lubricant

Thanks for the feedback! I’ll explain it better next time… I needed to get the SeaDoo from the dock to the ramp (which is a mile away) by myself.

@@ccjetsports it’s understandable and looks fun but maybe too quick cut for the old timers

Not sure which screw you mean... the mounting bolts go through the hull and thread into the fixing plates and the motor itself. www.partzilla.com/catalog/sea-doo/personal-watercraft/2012/gtx-215-42ca-42cb/reverse

My old one still works great and I built it years ago

What you have will work the same so no need to get the blue

Thanks for the input. I’d much prefer to have antifreeze than water in the machines I take care of. Next time you take an exhaust system out or motor apart let me know if you find water in it… you certainly will 👍

yea i just "winterize" mine by running it out of the water for a few revs blowing any water left in the exhaust manifold/pump, never had to do anything else for any of my skis

I’ve seen a lot of internal corrosion problems from the wet exhaust systems. Your water box still holds fluid even after you rev it. The air inside of the motor is at 100% humidity all the time so fogging and antifreeze for me for the 6 months my skis will be sitting. I maintain over mil $ worth of machines and I’m taking no chances

@@ccjetsports Fair statement, you do you. The water box in the exhaust is the only place that can hold water after an on trailer rev. The expansion cannot damage anything the water box with what little is left. Rinsing is one thing to keep corrosion down, and needed in salt water. Next time catch the antifreeze that comes out compared to what you pumped in. It' won't lie to you. Again, it's a good video for other brands for sure.

Happy to help! Thanks for watching

For sure! but with about 100 pwc’s to winterize sometimes I have to work in the rain 🌧️ Before I put the plastic on I dried the machines off with towels. The wrap itself doesn’t shrink well when it’s wet either, therefore I used the canopy. I’ve also found that when wrapping a pair of skis like in this video. Having them open underneath in the middle helps keep mildew from forming. I believe due to the air being able to flow under while keeping the snow and rain off the top. These SeaDoos had no water or mildew on them when I removed the wrap in the spring 😎

For sure! Thanks for making great products!!!

Thanks!! It took a year for this vid to be picked up in search. I rewatched it and the pace is a little slow… time to make another!

Thanks Victor!! I just got a shipment of wrap today, time to make some more wrap vids. Any advice how to make them better?

@ccjetsports I'm going to need my boat wrapped and I subscribed to your channel in hopes I could learn a little something from you so that I can wrap my little boat

Dr Shrink sells a kit amzn.to/4epcACN

@@ccjetsports thanks man 👍

This may be a better option though amzn.to/4gKrTaZ It’s shrinkable and reusable

Yeah… I hear ya. Seadoo has a complicated electric system, BuDS is the only way to calibrate the IBR unfortunately 😥

Thanks! 😊

On the older style rideplates the plastic fittings tend to break when you remove the plate. New is probably the way to go unfortunately. I find Partzilla has the best prices www.partzilla.com/catalog/sea-doo/personal-watercraft/2008/rxt-x-255/propulsion I got my used 2012 version on eBay

Thanks for watching Brian! I just found out the fuel pump on my SeaDoo (the one in this video) was deteriorating inside the tank 😥 I didn’t catch it at first because the pressure tested good. I’ll edit that vid soon, it’ll go over taking the fuel pump out

www.partzilla.com/catalog/sea-doo - @JochenHeler in the US partzilla has the lowest prices now in ‘24

Nice!! I'll have to stop in there and check it out, thanks!

I hear ya, luckily a good cleaning and they look like new again

I totally agree but sometimes things happen. My skater cat was in the water for the weekend and Saturday night driving home I was t boned😮and spent weeks in the hospital and another 2 in a rehabilitation center. The poor boat was lucky to be floating let alone the bottom 😢 and I totally forgot about it until talking with a friend

Damn @@RobertFothergill-u1z !! Sorry to hear that

Yes!! But if you lose… a jetski falls on your head

Are you a Yamaha guy @rokomarkovic4556 ?

Ahoy @theBoatsnPros !! I just started my winterizing & wrapping season. I’ll make another vid on wrapping soon. Is there anything I didn’t cover in this video that would help?

You know she won’t crank…. over

Thats Buds 1 in this video. I also have buds 2 and SBT scan tool

Yes we reused the shims same as they came out. I haven't run into a Yamaha that required different shim setup than what came from factory. SeaDoo however always seem to need a new shim configuration

Happy to help!

How’d it go with the relay?

Not sure… fast enough 😊

I would like one of those 550sx with the lightning graphics
