My wife wants to know what are the symptoms if some water was to somehow mixed with fuel in a two stroke jet ski.
Her 900Zxi took on water so much that half of the jet ski was submerged under water. Apparently, her mom, aunt, and herself tipped the jet ski so many times that it took on so much water. I think the weight of three people trying to get on the jet ski forced the rear to sag under water.
By the time I got there, the back end of the jet ski was under water. The entire engine was under water.
I was able to get all the water out and got it started. Once I started it and let it idle for 5 minutes, I left the jet ski sitting in the garage for about 6 months.
I recently ran it but it could only get to 4k rpm. Once in a while it would jump to 8k rpm for a little bit. Out of the water, it could go to 8k rpm. The throttle response seems okay out of the water but in the water, it's a difference matter.
I have to ease the throttle to prevent it from stalling. When it runs, it can only go about 20mph sometimes it would go faster but rarely.
My wife said that later in the day it ran much better than before but power was not there.
A few people say that the reed is the problem but my wife thinks that it may be water in the gas.
Any ideas?
