poor preformance

[mike1957]

I have purchased a 110 Hp seedoo GTX engine this is the second one the first one went well I had some carb problems I repaired by cleaning. The one I am on now has been problems from the start. All the bolts were ceased in everything I have got that taken care of, but I am having errattic engine running. I checked one carb. cleaned it it ran fine for a few minutes. On the test run it stalled and will not crank. I removed both carbs the one I cleaned had some trash in it not bad. The second one is bad the screws were seized in the carbs itself. Before it went bad it got sluggish and would take the gas. Could it be the Exhaust? The rotor valve cover leaking? or Just continued trash in the fuel?

Re: poor preformance

sounds like a carb problem , you need to do a compression test /spark and fuel . how long did the ski sit ? how old is the fuel ?

Re: poor preformance

It sat over a year. We drained the fuel out put new in. What is the compression spec?

Re: poor preformance

I don't know why people think you can - but you can not 'clean' carbs. You need to ge two rebuild kits and rebuild them.

Re: poor preformance

you're saying the bolts (screws) are seized. Those vacuum chamber screws need to be removed with an impact driver. They need to be pushed in very hard while unscrewing. Mine were so bad, they still broke on me, but you WILL have problems if you don't use a hand impact driver. Manuals say to hit the hammer with a hammer while turning; while this can work, this is where I stripped some screw heads.

Tech: You do have 'cleaning' videos. Even though I'm with you and you still need to attack it like a re-build (and basically your video's show this) you may wish to change your vid's to cleaning/rebuilding or ?? Just lettin' ya know. :)

Compression should be close to 150 in both clyinders. Check it.
