I just did new batteries, plugs, oil/filter on my (2) vx cruiser ho’s @ 35 hours. Starting 4th season and super easy to do. Saved myself easy $500 in just labor.
Just check those plugs after a couple hrs, looked like you didn't torque them down enough. All plugs have crush washers and when new you need to "crush" them when installing. A torque wrench is best for ppl who don't have a good feel of when the washer crushes and the plug actually gets tight. And by all means DO NOT overtighten them or you can face serious damage.
Oil filter is also 18 ft/lb torque - use small torque wrench (i.e. bicycle tool kit) so the you right in the middle of the torque wrench adjustments (don't use the torque wrench designed for car's wheels because it's not accurate on low values)
Great video! Thanks for putting it together. I'm curious why you start the engine before turning on the water hose and then turn off the water before shutting down the engine.
Wish you would of shown your trick to getting the spark plug out on the right. The one that has part of the fiberglass body over it. I’m actually thinking of drilling a hole thru there to drop the ratchet extension down. ?????
I'd love to learn about this "oil overflow hose", how it is plumbed into the system and what its purpose is. Do you (or anyone) have a link to some reputable info about it?

Do you have any upgrades done to this ski?? Ride plate or stage 1 possibly? I just bought 2020 exr and looking to upgrade but I just need to know it will be worth it before I do? Thanks in advance
Thx for this video bro. Quick question though. I noticed that you didn’t use anti seize on the plugs......Have you ever had any problems? Some say to use anti seize and some say not to.

@@Junsworld I bought the cheap one he is taking about and could only get about 2 quarts same as a lot of other people on 2 oil changes .. so I'm guessing this Matco extractor pulls more somehow?
I have never been to Florida but want to go down there and do some fishing and kayaking and maybe a little ride on a ski. I want one to go fishing with so I can get places faster than my yak but I have had 3 spinal fusions and about to have shoulder surgery in June and my birthday is June 3rd
I watch two or three channels of TH-camrs from Florida. I watch you blue Gabe and cleetus McFarland . I have family that lives down there. But I have never been there before and would like to take it off my bucket list of places to go in fish there's a few species that live down. A fish that I'd like to catch. Oh and Bruce Willson. He is the one who started will it start , now I'm not impressed with his latest stuff.
As long as your motor is off when you’re washing it it won’t cause any harm to it I basically use Dawn soap and wash the top of the motor and I sprayed it down after that I spray WD-40 marina Lubrication spray all over the motor to keep it from rusting
Appreciate the advice man thank you by the way your video was really helpful just did my oil change and changed the spark plugs as well. Thank you keep it up bro thanks
I have an EX as well. You made it really easy, I am hoping to do my own oil change next year. Thanks!

Where can I pick up the oil extractor the you used with a cordless drill?
Great video add! Thank you kind sir. Yes, like below, need some tools I guess... oil extractor is slick. Thanks.

Very well explained, thank you bro!
Thanks for the vid bro. See you out there on the water soon.
Gonna be doing this pretty soon, thanks for the video.. hope I get it right 🤞
Great video thanks a lot
In case anyone wondering - manual calls for 25 N·m (2.5 kgf·m, 18.4 ft·lb) torgue on spark plug
Oil filter is also 18 ft/lb torque - use small torque wrench (i.e. bicycle tool kit) so the you right in the middle of the torque wrench adjustments (don't use the torque wrench designed for car's wheels because it's not accurate on low values)
Yamaha service manual for a 2018 VX with this engine says 17Nm / 12.5 ft-lb for the oil filter.
Great video! Thanks for putting it together. I'm curious why you start the engine before turning on the water hose and then turn off the water before shutting down the engine.
You can damage the engine internally if you don’t start your engine before running water.
It's in the yamaha manual. You can force water into the engine and damage it if the engine isn't running while the water is on.
all ski manual tell u to do it, listen and learn young grasshopper
Thanks you good info 👍

All you need is a short extension.
How long do you run the ski to warm it up ??

@ minute 2:54 what is that black cover called?

Should I wait until the season is over? I have 11 hours on my ski. Where did you get the filter wrench from? What size is it?
I read somewhere that spark plugs for the wave runner should be torques to 13ft/lb. do you know if this is correct??
Do you get a high oil level prior to running it after an oil change?

is that water inside the hull normal? noob here
The water was from me washing the motor after riding in salt water
Can you mess up the Jetski by washing the engine ? What do you spray to get rid of the salt and then keep it looking shiny new?
