Well i was jumping some waves for about an hour or so riding it pretty hard (which i usually do) Seemed like it lost power on my last jump...It still ran enough to bring me the 5 mins back to shore even though when i hit the throttle it ran real choppy gave me about 5MPH thats all it had...seemed like only one piston was running or something else went on it....It was smokin a little more than usual.....Got it back to shore took off the seat and there was water all the way up to the battery..The whole campartment was filled witin an Inch of the Intake's... I didnt try to start it yet since it just happened i pulled the plugs they were both slimy with a grayish tint (not like my usual dark black with oil drops on it) I am sure this enegine took in some water since the water was so high...
Now should i worry about draining and or checking the engine before i try to start it to troubleshoot? I wonder why the bildge pumps didnt evacuate the water? Anyone else have this problem before?
Also the rave valve closest to the front of the ski has a small tube on it this tube was leakin a black goey oil from it (which never happened before)
Hmm dont know where to start now..will probably try to start it this week sometimes after i get someinput or ill have to take it in (OUCH!! )
98 gtx limited
85 hours on it
Iam curious if you know of anyone out there that you can recommend for service or to install one of your engines if i need one...
Thanks for your input!
