I ran my 1200R waverunner on cheap oil, like $7.00 a gallon oil all season and now it has much less power and about 10 MPH slower. Has anyone else had this sort of problem before?
take them out and clean them up good some oils will gum those up and keep them from working properly,they should be cleaned every year any how, if they don't open properly the ski will loose power at top end, and it will be obvious
Hi, your boat has a catalyst and by using cheap oil it becomes fouled and will need to be replaced. You must use Yamalube 2W or any non-phosphorus oil. The cat is very expensive, check with Riva for a chip that is used when you remove the cat.
Well, I took the exhaust apart tonight and the cat-con was stuck in the pipe. It dislodged from its bracket and got blown down the pipe. It looks pretty clean though.
