Somethings to add make sure to only run the ski 30-90 seconds because the carbon wear ring doesn’t get water when hose is hooked up and it will over heat. Also if you pull the oil pump tube out a little you can hold the throttle and hold the start button the ski will crank only and this will allow excess trapped oil in the passages to be flowed down to the bottom of the pan then tube pump again!
Forgot to manually crank the engine ( depress throttle and start button) doing this allows engine oil to flow into oil filter compartment. Do this until ALL all oil is out.
I got one of those last week, a similar pump failed after about 10 changes. Hopefully this one is more durable, but compared to dealer oil change prices ,you could buy a new pump for every oil change.
Next time you have the deck off and you need to run the engine for a long time try pointing a hose through the intake grate towards the front to get water down the shaft to the carbon seal. You can reach down and feel the steel flange that spins on the carbon seal and see how much cooler it is.
Per Users Manual, you should not be running it more then 2 minutes - Drive line seal has no cooling when watercraft is out of water. Please correct me if I am wrong?
Yikes..Carbon seal..spendy fix..no need to run, eva..just turn it over, holding throttle down for count to 5-10 at start, and 2-3X during oil removal..should get 2-2.5 qts..and replace the star-nut O-ring on the Cap, also👍

Bob, very informative! Would be great to see the winterization & de-winterization procedures, or possibly have it explained to mechanic (similarly how you've done with stones damage on your sea doo).
Well bob . Just wondering . Did it end up ever sinking ? Notice a lot of people were saying your carbon seal may be toast for running that long out of water !??
No problem with the carbon seal. I probably only ran it for about three minutes. It is correct however that it really shouldn’t be run for much longer than that. I misspoke when I said 5 minutes.
@@richardnagrabski9301 I agree. Let a pro (or backyard mechanic with at least a few oil changes under his belt) do the work. He also didn't change the small O ring. FAIL.

Yes you can carry the top case the cooler and extra gas with the back seat on. I think it works pretty good and now I can bring everything with me if i want too. Tell the guys Yukon Bob referred you if you go for it.
@@bobsudeyko4088 Ideally you do this after a day at the lake. Drive it home and change the oil right away. It should be nice and warm still. Doing an oil change end of season (when it's colder) will suck, especially with the synth blend oil. Use full synth.
You warmed the Ski for 5-7 minutes, that is a no no in a SeaDoo. Then you used dirty oil to lubricate the O-rings, wow. Your next video should be how to replace the carbon ring.
It's aftermarket. You can find more about it here. facebook.com/BSDesigns4PWC It's kind of expensive for what it is. Not the companys fault. Mostly exchange and if you are unlucky at the border you may get hit with duty charges. Almost 600 Cdn for me. Built well and works well.
It should just spin on to a little beyond hand tight. There is a rubber seal that also needs to be in place where the filter meets the engine. I have not noticed a gap once it’s tightened a little beyond snug.
@@jrdaviskid no there is just the one rubber ring. It’s not really an o ring as it is flat. The old ring that is already on there needs to be removed. Sometimes the rubber seal that is on there will stick on the engine mount and will not come off with the filter. Only one ring at a time is used.
Fairly simple. Particularly after you have done it once. Just make sure at the end of it all that the dip stick measurement is right. Let it run for 3 to4 minutes to get an accurate reading. If to much suck a little out. At the dealership the cost is high but even more of an issue is that you might have to weight weeks without your machines.
@@bobsudeyko4088 From my 2019 GTX manual: NOTICE Never run engine longer than 2 minutes. Drive line seal has no cooling when watercraft is out of water.

Using old contaminated oil to lubricant the new o rings? Really!! How about cranking the engine to remove remainder of the old oil. Bad advice all around!

Do oil changes after a ride. Already to a good temp for removal without stressing the carbon seal
Per Users Manual, you should not be running it more then 2 minutes - Drive line seal has no cooling when watercraft is out of water. Please correct me if I am wrong?
That was the first thing that came to mine mind, 5min sounds like a lot,
Good way to wreck your carbon seal. The manual says to never run it over 90 seconds even if it's on the hose, because the seal gets no cooling.
5 minutes! That thing must have been red hot. All you have to do is spray through the intake grate to get some water to the carbon seal.

One thing. When warming up your Seadoo only run it for 1 to 1.5 minutes.
Informative? Wrong information all around. Using used oil to lubricate the new ORings was the icing on the cake for epic fail. This guy is a hack..
@@richardnagrabski9301Are you serious? Do you really think using a miniscule amount of used oil on a oring is going to affect anything 😂😂
Everyone needs a Nathan! Great video. Do you happen to have a link for the pump you used or the name maybe? Thank you!
It’s stored away in the seadoo for the winter. I just searched on Amazon and found it there.
Thanks for responding. I think I found it.
Great Video. Where did you get that funnel from?
I’m going to have to that job twice in the not too distant future
Maybe i missed it but should put it in drown mode and crank then Re suck the crank case

I'm currently a Yamaha PWC owner. what is the supercharger maintenance look like on one of these. We are looking at adding a second unit
Where you jetting this weekend Bob?
I got a kit and it comes with 2 oil filters and I can't find the place where the second one should be, if it exists. Any advise?
The machine only uses one oil filter
Didn’t measure how much you put in? 😁
Is there something electronically you have to reset in the computer after doing an oil change?
If there is I don’t know. I just change approx every 50 hours
@@bobsudeyko4088 i looked into it. It seems A 400$ diagnostic tool called candoo professional is needed to reset the maintenance icon .

hey bob is there a bit of a gap between the top cap of the filter and the housing like can you see the o ring a bit ?
There is and its normal.
Correct
This was my concern. Thought I was doing something wrong and didn’t want to start it. Doing the oil change right now for the first time.
where did you buy the pump top remove oil ?
@@charlesr4325 amazon
Where you bought the pump?
Hello Bob, just curios why did you heat up the oil before changing it?
It just allows it to be more viscous and then makes it easier to drain more of it. Should not run the engine more than about two minutes.
@@bobsudeyko4088 thanks, I bough the same pump on amazon it works great.

Just so that it change the viscosity a little and allow it to flow a little more easily.

Read your owners manual for oil Quantity/quality
How do you reset the light?
I don’t. Just change the oil every 50 hours.
Are you using Synthetic Oil?
Yes it’s a synthetic blend. Comes in a kit from the dealer along with the filter. About 85.00.
5 to 7mins ,Not!!!..1 fried carbon seal, 60 seconds max..
Аймаладец!
Run it that long out water i bet u just burned up ur carbon seal.
Helpful thnx
It should have been more like 4.5 litres of oil and the carbon seal probably toast.
Bro you know it’s only 2 min right ? Poor carbon seal
great job .. keep it up
