I quit working on these . They are not worth much and the customers dont want to put a pile of money into them and the parts NLA! I hope they didnt bend you over for the work you put into it and try and ream you . I hope you got paid . This is one of those jobs that will come back and bite you in the ass
All was good. No..it was not worth the $ as I spent all day trying to figure out all the issues but none the less I enjoyed it. I charged him a minimum and advised that there are still alot of issues with boat.
seems like the candoo is needed for these DI engines, i just got an 03 XP for 300$ it runs on trailer but in water it bogs and doesn't hold idle but i dont get any maint beeps when revving. compression is 125 on each cylinder. ive checked electrical connections however the maint light flashes even with just the key inserted any ideas of what else i can check?
If the maintenance light is flashing it means there is an active code. It could be anything . Hard to tell without scanning. Just like on this boat the knock sensor and tempature sensor were reversed . Check all connections to see if anything is not connected properly.
@@SeadooRefurb i just ordered a candoo, seems it will pay for itself over guessing, will report back once i have it in hand. thanks for the videos they help alot!
You do know that you can polish a turd and now you have a shinny turd but it's still a turd .lol that's what happens when people work on stuff that they don't know what they are doing.aka backyard Brian 🙄
While flipping through I saw your channel. I had to see what you were up to. Watching you brought back my nightmares lol. I bought the same boat new in 2000 but it had two engines. My first couple years were great then I had to really work on it. I would wrap up my days with bruised ribs every time I had to do anything under the hood, there was no room which I'm sure you know lol. I loved that boat but I had to sell it because I didn't have a place I could pull the motors at. I also couldn't afford the 185.00 per hour for the shop to work on it. Now I'm back to boats with car engines and LOTS OF ROOM UNDER THE HOOD LOL. My thoughts and prayers are with you!!

@@infamoussgarage It is almost impossible to diagnose a di without one.
@@SeadooRefurb mine is on the way, what type of laptop are you using for the candoo? Looking to find a cheap laptop to use with it.
@@infamoussgarage I purchased a cheap acer computer. Must be PC based and not apple.

Too funny..I was just wondering the next day why my ribs were killing me ! You hang over that seat back for hours at a time ...:)
Good job there, your far more patient than me. I have a 2002 DI and arent they a treat to trouble shoot when they stop running properly.
They are a nightmare but once they work..they run awesome..
Any clue how water got into the air compressor line?
Hard to say but there was alot. Most likely water got sucked into the air compressor at the vent
