This was a very helpful video. I don't know why some people have to post criticism about "tension between mr awkward and sleepy face" I came on here to learn something and I did. with that being said...Thank you for the information.
Right off the start I can see that they don't know what they're doing. Running the engine for 30 seconds doesn't warm the oil up, and filling the oil passages means you'll get less oil out of the engine.
They should point out that the two o-rings are different and should not be interchanged. The fatter o-ring goes on the bottom groove of the cover and the thinner goes on upper. Pretty important stuff if you're doing a DIY video!!
Probably too late for some but DO NOT USE A SCREWDRIVER TO REMOVE THE OIL FILTER CAP. The screwdriver will easily cut into the cap and filter housing preventing a good seal. Trust me on this, use a plastic pry tool or an actual SEA-DOO OIL FILTER EXTRACTOR TOOL. I learned the hard way and had an oil leak.
No, you could F it up when the cap is partially up. I had a little dried white paint on my screwdriver and it showed it was right next to top o-ring area, so close! HE SHOULD REDO THIS VIDEO!!!
a little trick here my friend. on older skis take a regular pair of slip joint pliers and put them in large grip. you can then grab top of oil filter cap and pull it right off without prying with a screw driver. grab them in the bolt center and outer edge. also wipe tube before putting in engine.also when you do this for first time and get it right measure your tube when pulling out and from then on you will know how far. I do about 100-150 changes a year. ALSO LUBE ORINGS WITH OIL BEFORE PUTTING CAP BACK ON.
You instructed to run the engine for 30s to warm the oil but everywhere I can find online says to never run your sea doo for more than 15s out of water as it could cause damage. Is it really worth running it that long?
Youre talking about the difference between a 2 stroke and 4 stroke. But its recommended to always run your ski on the hose if longer than 15 seconds. The issue is the carbon seal needs to be lubricated when running and water does that
@@krotchlickmeugh627 running your machine on the hose does not cool the carbon seal, that’s why even running on a hose you want to avoid running very long or you can spray another hose on the carbon seal from the underside of you need to run for extended time
Is there a rubber piece that fits into the oil filter cover? Not the 2 o-rings that go on the outside. Mine had a rubber piece that seems to fit in between the oil filter cover and the oil filter when put together. I looks like it could be a rubber piece that was on an oil filter at one time that was mistakenly forgotten.
Hello, im a firstimer jetski owner here. I just want to know what oil and oil filter that i need to use i have 2005 seadoo rxt 215HP. And how much oil it will take. Thanks a lot! Ang god bless
have a question. I have (2) 2012 Seadoo GTI 130’s. After riding a while on the ski we will kill the engine for a bit. When we go back to start it up. Nothing comes on. No computer no start. I will wiggle the fuse box wires and other wires a bit and Bam it’s starts! What is it??? Btw. Batteries are 3 years old. Btw. Both skis do this (the odds). ???
Check for a loose ground wire near the fuse box, if you arent getting proper ground it wont start which is most likely why when you move the wires around it starts because the ground touches after wiggling
Always start, run, shut off and recheck your oil level after an oil dump and refill. The new oil filter and chamber will take up some oil so a little more oil will need to be added. Filling your oil to the full mark let's you know for future oil checks if you've either lost or burnt up some oil possibly leading up to some extra service.
You said you only get 2.5 quart of oil out. I just bought this see doo and the guy that sold it to me said the oil been in it for a while and it real bad looking. .. if you can only get that little out how can that be good on the engine? ??? Is there no way to get all the oil out????
If you're worried about how bad the oil is, do an oil change, run it for about 30 seconds, then re-drain it and fill it a second time. This will insure you have fresh oil.
@@brandon7990 After the first batch of oil is removed, do a "flood start" of the ski for no more that ten seconds (full throttle while starting the ski - it will not run, just turn the engine). then attempt pumping again. did this twice and extracted nearly a quart of oil more total.
ok do any of you guys tell us what oil to use???? I think the best to use is 5/50 weight oil Synthetic same as my Harley / liquid cooled 2017 Road Glide also same cooling liquid .. Please let me know if that oil is ok.
@@aaronwism Nope - 2004+ SeaDoo GTX NA(155HP) uses 10w-40. you could be ok with a 5w-40. Synthetic for NA, but there may be a different type for the SC ski - it has to have modifiers for the wet clutch.
@@stevenv2190 why are you telling me no? you are wrong 2004 gtx uses 5-40 not 10. the ceramic washer supercharged ones used 10-40 which the s.c have all been updated .i said what it uses nope check your facts Steven
Juxtahposed my sea doo rxt 255 hs 74 hours on it and a guys telling me the super changer needs to be rebuilt afyer 75 hours ... is that bull? I think so
It used to be 10w-40, but BRP has changed all of the skis to 5w-40 for some odd reason. I still use 10w-40 Mobile 1 synth on my 2004 GTX NA, but may switch over to AMSOIL marine.
@@stevenv2190 Hello. Can I use synth 10w-40 Mobile 1? on my rxp 215 2004. How many years have you used for your 2004 GTX NA? and how did it show itself in use? were there any problems with the motor? just want to switch to Mobile1 or another brand of oil! original brp xps has become very expensive, I want to replace it with something similar, but less cheap! thanks in advance!!

If you don't have a Torx bit you can use an 8 millimeter socket
Hello! what kind of engine oil was used when replacing? I wonder which manufacturer did you choose?
Probably too late for some but DO NOT USE A SCREWDRIVER TO REMOVE THE OIL FILTER CAP. The screwdriver will easily cut into the cap and filter housing preventing a good seal. Trust me on this, use a plastic pry tool or an actual SEA-DOO OIL FILTER EXTRACTOR TOOL. I learned the hard way and had an oil leak.
Using the screwdriver can't cause a leak, even if you did gouge the cap and housing, the seals are well below the top surface so it won't matter.
No, you could F it up when the cap is partially up. I had a little dried white paint on my screwdriver and it showed it was right next to top o-ring area, so close!
HE SHOULD REDO THIS VIDEO!!!
REDO THE VIDEO! That's really dangerous.

Got to start the ski, recheck level and top off. Otherwise will end up low when filter fills.
Very importing , leveling jet ski before do service
what is the diameter of the hose used on the extractor?
You must use that extractor as a bong in the winter months, why wouidn't you tell us type of oil. amount and filter type

Yes, pull the rear plugs and ride until submerged, then bail.

If you crank the engine a second or two after the first sucking you get more oil out!
engine damage no oil!!!!!
it is a dry sump system, you have to move the oil around to get it out.
Hold throttle and start button it will only spin the crank and not start
just me or there is some tension between mr awkward and lil sleepy face
??
Is this the same process for a 2002? Thanks
Oil extractor looks like a bong
Yes, one that you need two hands to carry LOL
What do you do if there's been held gas into the oil container?

do they hate eachother?
#10 E Torx
worng i get 4 quarts almost extracted move the tube up and down
jared green
Yes I noticed that too I want to get the most I can out so I moved it around and kept pumping,
I dont understand why you had to take the seat , brace, and coolant bottle off?
how would you get to the engine with the seat on?
Why are you replacing those o rings. They were fine?
I was wondering the same thing.
Because he uses a screwdriver to get cap off and that damages them usually

What oil did you put into the ski?
Bombardier oil in qt. size 2936000121or
gallon size 293000122.
This is a Synthetic Blend of oil that
SeaDoo recommends for their watercraft.
10W40 Oil also works and is cheaper than the Sea Doo Brand
look like a shell emblem to me
Matt Steele does it have to be marine oil?
@@aaronwism I saw the same thing, it looked clearer than than my seadoo oil.
What size hex socket for the oil filter?
not hex its a E10
How often should the oil get changed?
On mine it's 100 hrs or every year.
