I just purchased a used 1992 Sea Doo SP.
When I bought it the previous owner started it up just fine. Then I took it to the lake and it wouldn't start unless it was on jumper cables. I recharged the battery over the week and then it started fine. But after about 1 1/2 of riding it wouldn't start again.
I then....put in a new battery and new plugs and it ran fine for about 2 hours, but then it went dead again. What can cause it to go dead so fast? I got the shop manual for the 1988-1996 Sea Doo's and the 1992 SP seems to not have a rectifier. I didn't know if that could be the culprit of draining the battery if that wasn't working properly but it looks like it doesn't have one. Only on 1993 models did the rectifier come into play.
Please help! Any information what so ever would help at this point.
Thanks,
Devan Hansen
