Saved me a lot of money, some seadoo mechanic was charging me $700 to do this for me. Luckily I seen how simple it was to do myself so I rung him and canceled. Thank you

We just bought a 5 year old sea doo GTI 130 jet ski that only has 9 hours on it and been sitting in storage- I appreciate this tutorial to help get it ready for the water
Nice find! Yea def. want to change all the fluids, plugs & everything else you can but otherwise should be a great summer for you all, congrats. I write this as I am dropping off my new car to have the hitch put on, getting a late start to the season but it's all good, should be able to have her touch water sometime this week! Thanks for watching, please Subscribe!!**SK**
Thanks Man - I just changed my Oil Filter on my RXT-255 and could not figure out why that small O Ring was still showing! Happy to see as you pointed out, that one does not seat into the cylinder like the large O ring does. Thanks again, very helpful!
Hey Joe... glad I was able to help. Def the kind of thing that will have you feeling like you are going crazy until you know that's how it's supposed to be. **SK**
Awesome tutorial. I even ordered the same exact Extoil extractor. I went to Harbor Freight and got ones of those but it didn't work. Thanks again for being thorough, I'm sure it's saved us all some moolah 💰
Good job brow . Just both 2 gti month ago and with your video I saved about 200 per ski to get the oil changed . Thank you a lot . God bless you brother .
Thats awesome. Both the double jetskis and the savings. Glad I could help. I would appreciate if you would Subscribe! Have a great Labor Day weekend. I'm off to hit the water now :-) **SK**
Guys, watch the procedure but don't follow the fill directions. Read the owner's manual. You need to warm that motor up...not just 10 seconds. Then you let it sit for 30 seconds and check the oil. Over-filling these skis is well documented for sending out oil alarms. Just fill it till it is half way between the full and low kinks on the dipstick WHEN the ski is warm. NO MORE than 5 mintues on a garden hose but try to stick with 2 to 3 minutes tops so you don't burn out the carbon seal.
You always have the best videos my man, love them! Keep them coming. I have those 12" Seadoo GTI 130's. I'm having to change the battery's this year. Wish me luck!
Thanks man! I actually need to put new plugs in my ski...I'm sure I'll put that up this spring. Can't wait to get back out! But I gotta snowboard trip to VT this weekend..got to stay busy somehow 😄. **SK**
@@SKLIFEstyle I here that! I am missing Jet Skiing sooooo bad! I'm so ready to go for the summer! How long do you let your battery's last before changing??
DO NOT! I repeat DO NOT!! turn the motor over AFTER YOU’VE DRAINED THE OIL! Yes you will get more oil out but your draining all the oil valleys/oil pump/bearings then turning it over is a great way of wearing out up your main/rod bearings because when you start it with oil all of the passages will be dry. Before they start these motors from the factory they prime the oil system which is why the bearings don’t get torn up on initial start up
Probably a safety mechanism so you dont launch yourself while offloading or docking and hurt yourself. My best guess, never realized that was the case...but don't think I've tried it either. **SK**
@@SKLIFEstyle Keeping the throttle wide open while starting puts it into "flood mode" which stops the injectors from spraying fuel. If your ski won't start after cranking it too many times, the engine will be too rich (too much gas not enough air) and won't be able to start, aka "flooded". You put it in flood mode, pull the spark plugs and it will clear out. Same thing for compression checks, flood mode prevents gas from spraying out of the spark plug holes while you're checking it. When you're doing this for oil changes, if you are also going to change the spark plugs, I would pull them before doing the oil change in case your hand slips then put the new ones in after. If you're almost out of oil and your engine accidentally fires up that would not be a fun afternoon.
Thanks Billy. Please Subscribe! I would have to see a pic or video of the engine to be able to say. I haven't worked on one so idk off the top of my head. My guess is they just blended it in when with some other plastics so ypu don't even notice it. But you must have one. I have an FB page. Feel free to message me a pic/vid of the engine bay. Short of that I would just look at the manual, or call the dealer.**SK**
Just bought the new 2p121 SEADOO FISH PRO and really enjoyed your video as I am a hands on kind of guy and learning how to maintain my new rig. One question I did not get the theory about holding the throttle when you try to start the engine. U mean the hand side throttle? U gotta hold it so that the engine won’t start? Have not put it in the water as of yet just personalizing it right now but soon will put it to the test.. thank you . Please advice regarding the throttle action. Cheers. Sami
Congrats on the new Doo, and thanks for watching, please Subscribe! That said, you don't have to do that part with the throttle if you don't want to, there will always be some oil left in the machine regardless. But if you want to get more oil to the bottom to drain, you hold thr start but while holding the hand lever on the right (throttle), just for a few seconds, it kicks over the engine without allowing it to fully start and the oil will drop down to the bottom of the case. If the engine started there wouldn't be a lot of oil in there (from previous pumping) for it to be running (not good) and also what was in there would rise up higher in the motor and still be unable to get caught. But once or twice, basically turning it over, won't hurt.**SK**
What did you spray around the engine components at the end of the video ? Great video by the way , super informative , straight forward and to the point . Will be subbing and checking out other videos .
I believe our models and up state at 40 or 50 hrs. I just do it at the end of the season. But can't hurt to do it more often. I've stuck to once a year though. **SK**
@@ellyattmahn3770 yea if it comes on than do it...but if you do it like every 40nit shouldn't. Although I've got it one time for some reason after I did my oil change myself it was still saying maintenance so I asked the dealer to wipe out the code.**SK**
No prob. Glad I could be of some help. Appreciate if you Subscribe. I have a ton of great content on and off the ski. Giveaway coming soon to subscribers too! **SK**
@@dhhodgin No problem. Appreciate if you Subscribe. I will have a few more ski vids out before end of the year. As for 2020 I will be doing some upgrades so there will be even more content coming. May even get a new toy too, but we'll see. **SK**
Yea my last kit was like that. You have to search for one that shows all 3. Honestly I didnt change out the small oring last time cause the kit before didnt come with it, I'd bet you will be fine...but its pretty basic, I'm sure u could find one at the hardware store.
They say 50, I think now its after 100 hrs. Honestly you don't hurt anything by doing oil changes, I do mind at the end of every season...first was at 46 hrs...second around 76 hrs.
I typically just drop it off at a local auto shop. Many mom & pop shops put the used motor oil in shop heaters which can burn all types of oils. But either way they dispose of so much of it it's easy for them to take it. Can check at your local dump if they have a special place to take it...but I find the shop around the corner is much easier. Thanks for watch Panda. Please SUBSCRIBE! **SK**
Yea I asked the dealer to reset it when I took it to be winterized a few weeks back. Otherwise I think you need to get a cpu specialized for the Doo to get rid of the code. I went all summer with it saying Maintenance Needed...it just shows up once when starting and then gors away.
Yea I did that all summer. Not a problem. Other people may think something is wrong if they are on it but you just let them know the cpu has to be reset. But far as the machine is concerned you're fine.
@@ericksukendy9829 yes but you need a special computer to do it with, which costs a couple hundred bucks...just simply isnt worth it in my book. Im sure the computer can give u other read outs and stuff...but u less you have a ton of machines, and do a ton of work on them, it probably isnt worth it. But thats they only way I know of. Nothing like a car were you can do it just with the key to the vehicle. Unfortunately.
Thanks for the Sub!! That is a Extoil 6 Liter Oil Extractor with a gauge. Meant to do a review end of last season. Perhaps I'll do it soon for the new season.
@@SKLIFEstyle I ordered it lol. I was trying to use the regular old pump ball syphon with rubber hoses on each end but it wasnt working so I think this pump will do the trick
Start and stop process after pulling oil out again and again will destroy your engine. You actually poured fresh oil into the same container that held your dirty oil? Huh??

Great tutorial!! Seems pretty straightforward. A winterization video would be amazing one day, but let's enjoy the summer first!
If you'll pull the filter before you start extracting the oil, more will drain into the crankcase so you'll be able to pull more out at once.

How many quarts of oil does it take ? I put 3 quarts, and it seemed like it's still low. 🤔
Great vid BUT need to run ski on a hose to running heat then take out the oil.
Stupid question, how come the ski doesnt start when you have the key in with full throttle? Doing my GTIs now and just wondering.
