You gotta love a seadoo to be able to work on them and to follow behind someone else and then the customer tells you it was just running and then shut off. But that's what keeps us working and in business 😊😊
@@SeadooRefurb ok where are you located at? I have a hole and there is water coming from it. The hole sit right in between the intake manifold right under the spark plug holder
Seadoo's product support really sucks. I have a GSX that would work if the dealer's coding machine could create a new key for it. Unfortunately, Seadoo has changed something and the coder they have will not work on the older models. I also have a '97 Seadoo Speedster boat which is in great shape but needs a new starter on one engine. Two dealers have told me they won't work on a boat that old. 12 years ago I damaged one of thrusters on this boat but no part were available from Seadoo. [the boat was only 15yrs old at that time] Fortunately I found a salvage dealer out in California who said he thought the thruster from another model of a jet ski would work on my speedster. . I got it and if fit except that it was 1/4 in shorter which didn't make any difference. I guess is that Seadoo expects everyone to just junk their boat and buy a new one after about 10 years. .
I went through the same thing with my 2011 Challenger a few years ago. I needed a simple navigation light switch and they told me the boat was vintage and no parts were available. (only 10 years old at the time !) That prompted me to sell the boat off as I was afraid at the time that if something major went wrong I would be toast !... Now I just stick to the 2 strokes. Lots of parts out there. (I am sure there are lots of parts for the 4 strokes as well )

I am shocked at the condition these machines are in when they arrive. Not one has been in good condition ...
Another great video Matt. You’re the best.
Much appreciated !!
How much do you charge to work on one? I have found crack on the inside of my bottom end where the crankshaft is.
I usually do the repairs at costs . (It creates video content)
