I just bought a '96 zxi 900. Was told it was a fresh rebuild, to the point that I was told to run extra premix. Maiden voyage and after a couple minutes it overheats and goes into limp home mode. Mind you, this is my first pwc and it didn't even come with the owners manual...
After scouring (and learning tons!) here, I noticed the telltale puts out steam rather than water. Does this mean bad head gasket?
Having a snowmobile background I took compression tests before I even ran it and it showed 100 pounds. What is normal for this engine? If it really isn't broke in, its possible the rings aren't seated yet?
Any advice is extremely welcome as I'm not a very happy ebayer right now!!! :(
