My Seadoo has sat covered unused 2 seasons . .before Winterizing 2017, added marine fuel stabilizer and ran in..
Then fogged the cylinders and topped of the oil tank, pulled drain plugs to hull ect.
So I uncovered this weekend , starts ok - wont keep running at low RPM in the water, but has lots of snap when the rpm hits 3000. I expect new plugs will remedy. Will find out very soon.
My concern was the purple oil fresh in the bilge. My Sea-doo guy is on vacation next 8 weeks. he told me on phone the tank may be split along the seem. he said that is common. And the tank is half full , but filled before winterizing.
He said look at both ends at the oil lines. See if they are leaking.
I do not know what to look for or where to look for it. All i see is a fill tube to oil tank . I have the small compartment where you would put docs and keys uncovered as well as the front cargo basin removed and the seats out. I do not see where the oil from the tank feeds to.
