Its very easy. First, pull off the intake hose connected to the throttle body. Then, start the engine and turn on the garden hose into the flushing port. Then, rev the engine a few times (only to 4k...

Definitely throttle body, same thing happened to my 2012 rxtx 260, got a new tb from the same site posted by ptscon, plugged it in and it worked. No reset or anything required. Although you do have...

Well, at 112 hours, the head gasket gave up. Seems like once you see flakes, it is only a matter of time before it goes. :(

Yes, there were lots of black specs in the coolant tank, exactly the same amount as the pictures posted here: http://greenhulk.net/forums/showthread.php?t=230392

So an update: We think it is the head gasket.

Initial symptom: Intermittent reduction in RPM (from 8000 to 6000) during WOT, usually when WOT from a dig, RPM will not climb back up to 8000 once it...

Did you ever reach 8900 rpm with the cracked intake? Because in my case, I was reaching 8010 rpm (max stock rpm), but sometimes it would suddenly drop to 6000 rpm. It sounds like for your case, it...

That makes sense. This is indeed an intermittent issue, so a boost leak wouldn't "unleak" itself when its running normal at WOT. If that's the case, I guess it could be injectors or slipping clutch...

Yea seems like the symptoms I'm having. My ski runs great all the way up to full throttle, and when it doesn't bog down, the boost gauge would be missing one or 2 bars from full boost. When it does...

Spark plugs and oil changed when throttle body was replaced (~ 1 month ago).

I actually already installed a new OEM intercooler earlier this year (mid-summer), and right afterwards a new throttle body as the original one failed. I will still check the intercooler, but could...

Wow, I'm hoping mine will be just a loose clamp or bad gas... That seems like a lot of labour to get it pressure tested, hope my mechanic isn't gonna charge the hell out of me for that :(

How did you test and rule out that was the problem? That could be a possibility, as I personally know the previous owner and he loves to wave jump in the ocean. Might've cracked something on the...

Hi guys,

So during my ride this weekend, my ski developed a perplexing problem. The issue is that during WOT runs, sometimes the rpm would bog down to 6000 rpm (from the normal 8000 rpm I get) and...

Oh and not to mention, most of the time it is held at 100% throttle. Coolant level never ever changes (I marked a black line on the bottle and check before/after each ride), and it doesn't burn any...

Well, after replacing a failed throttle body, the ski has been flawless. It's at 106 hours now (76 hours when bought) and not a single problem other than TB. I have already rebuilt supercharger, new...

Hi all,

So I have a 2012 RXTX 260 currently at 103 hrs. I rebuilt supercharger at 76 hrs (a little early, but didn't like the thought of it blowing up) and oil change/plugs every 50 hours. I do...

Hi guys,

Recently, I have been getting into riding the tight trails in swamps, at the same location as 3ftdeep.

Since there are usually a lot of...

Hi all,

I am wondering has any of you gotten the same issues as I did last night?

I was making sure all the electrical connections were secured after a very hard day of riding last night, and...

I agree, you will definitely be spending more than $750 in parts, not even including labor. This is a high end performance ski, so please don't cheap out and buy refurb/used parts only to have it...

Hi Bobby,

I am also in the same boat as you, as I just got my 2012 RXT-X 260 with 76 hours on it. I might not be able to solve your problem, but maybe I can offer some insight from my experience...

Hi all,

So I need to replace my throttle body as it is failing due to an intercooler leak (IC replaced). Has anyone purchased throttle bodies from this website? Moreover, on the website it...

So I took the ski to a reputable mechanic, and he performed a pressure test on the intercooler. It turns out the intercooler is NOT LEAKING as per the pressure test... Where else would this water...

Well, it looks like you're right. (check video, ski is connected on the hose revving) I presume that the sea water entering from the intercooler is shorting out the TB, therefore causing the error...

Hi all,

So midway during a ride on the ocean today my 2012 Sea Doo RXT-X 260 threw a check engine light, P1614. A bit of background first:

2012 RXT-X 260 with 86 hours, supercharger, wear ring...

I see. But I was wondering if there is a dedicated holder like that for the fire extinguisher, since the safety kit will rattle around if not secured down properly. The parts department at the BRP...
