l picked up this 1999 sea doo jet ski at a yard sale last week. it was last used 2 years ago and started taking on water, since then it has been in a garage until l purchased it as is. lets see if we can fix it and take it for a spin.

That video was painful to watch, hooking it to the hose when out of water is how it’s done. Not spraying it.
Or is the manifold threaded?
engine sounds so much better after the plugs were changed
Nice find
It’s still a pile and I wouldn’t take it even for free
OUTSTANDING, Great buy !!!!!!. Is there anything you can't fix ?. Don San Jose, CA.
I don’t understand why some people can’t be satisfied with a quaint cottage on the lake. They have to build a huge mansion.
Nice work getting that one figured out! Turned out to be a heck of a deal!! ðŸ‘
Youtuber- fixes machine for ten bucks!
Me- sir you've overextended your credit there's a form to fill out giving away your body parts. 😂
You're already screwing up mustie1 quit screwing up
Some guys get all the luck.
Oh well no place to store it. And no truck to pull it with. But dam still looks fun. Its in really good condition id make room in a garage to keep it in, last thing you need to do is store it outside and have someone take it.
As for tell the previous owner what it cost to fix and what it was. Thats kinda like rubbing his nose in the fact he didn't have time to look. And or maybe hes not mechanical clined enough to have spoted it, but then did he run it in the water with the seat off to see what was going on? Snug and tight isnt a torque spec it has factory recommendations, the guy just didnt know off the top of his head and he could be the reason the bolts sheered off in the first place.
If thats the closest dealer thats probably where the original owner bought it. Im pretty sure he didnt buy it at home depot.
Refs 3000 out of water and 1500 in the water. Roughly. Research homie
Goes a wee bit faster than the beaver
1500 in the water..i have 3 of these each one with different engines 951 di rfi and carb. The carburetored one is the fastest and most reliable.
You could have just put a nut on it and all Bombardier are metric. Also should have purchased an AGM battery too.
Nice what year is that model.
12:15 holy s@@@ sweet mother of God, who the hell shoves a welder inside the hull of a 20+ yr old ski……………
Good deal there….HUH???
The thing was cook at a thousand CC
Great work sir
Even if the engine had windows, that still a steal of a deal!
I own a 2002 build of the same ski. 2 stroke carb. Check your mixture settings. At WOT, that ski will tear across the water and put the fear of god in to you. Yours looks pretty quick..its difficult to say for sure, but it looks like your missing some extra power somewhere…either incorrect mixture or throttle cable needs adjustment. Other than that…nice buy. Bit of good fortune there. Appreciate this is an old video but if you've still got her i hope you're continuing to enjoy it. They are IMO the most underrated ski BRP produced under the seadoo brand
that was a score for $400…….
What a steal! Fresh water use, 2 bolts, and old fashion common sense.
I had a 650 SeaDoo that filled with water while I was a half mile out on Lake Huron. It was one of the scariest things as a storm was about to hit. It was the cooling water intake boot. Make sure you check that too!
Did you fi nd the bilge pump
For your offer to sell it
