SO I recently bought a 94 SeaDoo SP 600 (580cc). The ski runs GREAT but since I bought it it has had a hard time getting going. You hit the throttle and it revs up fast and hits the rev limiter. If you keep on the throttle it will take about 5-8 seconds slowly accelerating then once your on top of the water you will hear the RPM drop off the rev limiter and the ski will pull forward strong. Its like its sucking in air until its on a plain. It actually accelerates A LOT faster if your gently on the throttle - Once it starts feeling/hearing like its "slipping" let off a little and it "grabs" again. Doing this you can get it on a plain in 3 seconds or so but nothing compared to my Yamaha (Hit the throttle and it grabs and front end comes up and your off instantly)
What else could it be? Like I said the impeller is new and so it the wear ring. The clearances are perfect between the impeller and wear ring. It feels EXACTLY how it did before the new impeller and ring but the old impeller was in fairly bad shape. I was quite disappointed to have spent all that time and money on the project to have it make no difference. I DID use silicone where the impeller housing bolts up to the hull. Is there anything else I need to be sure seals?
Thank you in advance for any help :-)
