| 98 Sea Doo GTX LTD question Hi Bill, I have a 98 Sea Doo GTX LTD that was fine last year, I had it winterized and this year when we got it out on the lake, it would only run about half throttle. When out of the water, it does rev up with no issue, but when it idles, it sounds different than normal, like an extra clang in there somewhere. I brought it in to the local dealer, they told me the crabs have varnish in them, so they would need to remove, clean and replace a couple parts. $115. for parts, $400 labor and $65. for diag. It seems odd they would be varnished up to that point, I just don’t want to pay $600 and have it do the same thing. Also, is there an option to use a chemical clean while running like with a car? If not, how much work is it to remove, clean and install the carbs. I can do this easy on a car, but have never worked on a PWC before. Thanks |
