- Installing an oem Seadoo bilge pump kit. I do not like the kit. The pump runs forever and will burn out and you will be redoing the job again.
I recommend buying the pieces needed and making your own kit. in my opinion the oem kit needs a float switch either in pump or external like I installed.
Also the kit is not good if you leave your ski outside dry docked or in water as the pump only works when the machine is on or 2.5 minutes after the machine is off. So the possibility of the machine sinking or getting flooded is high.
There is pumps made to check for water every 3mins. If water is detected it runs till the water is out. You can put a switch on it so when it's not in the water you can turn it off
do you feel the thru hole is low. seems to be in the water no?
How did you just get the rear off? I have a bolt that broke when I did the wear ring install and now I have to get to the inside of it to replace the pump support
Great Tutorial bro the only problem is if you don't buy the kit ... You can't buy the pump mounting bracket seperately. Any ideas how you could mount the pump ... Without the bracket?
Aluminum L brackets. Tractor supply has a whole selection of things like that. I’m going there maybe I can find a part number or something. Maybe help a few other people out
@@FcDominick Thanks man! 👍
If the bilge pump has an internal float, it will have 3 wires. One ground, one power for float and one switched power for over-ride.
That float switch will be turning the pump on and off when hitting waves
Better than running non stop
Pick what way works best for you
It’s a centrifugal style pump. There is nothing to burn out in the pump.
thanks for sharing, any new ideas or tips? I am some to add bilge to my ski
Too late now, but shoulda installed the Whale Supersub SS1212. No float switch needed.
How did you mount the float switch, made my own kit after watching your video
Hi mate they are a dry run pum they can run with out water for ever
Where did you get that new float? Also could I just buy similar pump at local store?
Yes. U can get the pump and float switch at Walmart. I’m sure Amazon probably has something you can use. I would go that route instead of buying the kit
Your sponsons in the lower position will make the back end hook into the water and not drift/spin.
If you wanna do tricks and spins don't bother with them or put them in the full up position.
What free flow exhaust is that?
Wet Jet performance
Why do you need a bilge pump in there? There shouldn’t be any water in there
It always gets a little wet. If you barrel roll it, it gets more wet. And if you ever been on a sinking ship, you would install and test it frequently.
