  • In this video I explain how the RAVE valves work and then do a rebuild to show you how its done. Resurrecting a Seadoo 97.5 GTX Limited aka the Gray Ghost. This was the first year of the big 947/951 Rotax Engine.

    Great information! Thank you. I like the advice about using some grease on the bellow. Like you mentioned, those green bellows are stiffer than the oem red ones. I believe they also added updated springs that need to be used with the green bellows.

      Thanks for that tip on the spring ..I didn't know

    My old 670 ho motor has a spring steel wire clamp(similar to fuel line clamp) holding small end of bellow onto shaft...I've had many Rotax engines over the years, I've seen zip ties....safety wire...spring style...
    My bellows are the black stiffer ones, not sure if original or aftermarket...

      I've pretty much settled on zip ties and file the corner to round it out so it doesn't poke a hole in the belows like the OEM metal ones do

    Bought 2 2001 RX DI's and when I pulled the motor/ top end, i found that these RAVE valves were catching the piston like you said. So must have been bored. Now i'm looking for a person or engine to replace.

      Peter at Fox Valley is one of the best in the biz. He rebuilds these daily and very good rep

      Sadly it's a common oversight to not trim those guillotines back 1mm.

    If these are bad,could it cause the motor to bog down on acceleration?

    • @jonparkmac
      @jonparkmac  Рік тому +1

      Maybe but usually when they stick you lose top end power band ..like can't get 5500 rpm sort of thing. Bogging is usually a fuel delivery issue and often because the carbs need to be rebuilt

      Ahhh. Not the carb then I guess lol. I'm afraid I don't know much about DI/RFI. I've heard people talk about low fuel pump pressure ..which I could see.

      I did that too. Looked over the floor for an hour. It had fallen down near the manifold. Check there
