  • @EastCoastAntics1

    You should always align a seadoo driveshaft when an engine is removed because an unaligned driveshaft can cause all sorts of problems. Vibration, carbon seal wear problems, leaking, jet pump bearing problems, etc. On another note, in my experience, if the engine mounts are left bolted in the hull and a engine is removed and replaced, the engine is generally pretty close in alignment. However, I would still fine tune it to get it near perfect.

The rods are symmetric so it shouldn't matter which way they go. I like to keep them so all the dots are facing the same way. I have taken engines apart that are stock OEM and I have seen the rods in all different directions.

    Thanks. You would bore a block if the bore is distorted or there is deep scoring or gouging. Yes it needs oversized pistons and rings if bored depending on how much it needs to be bored over (+0.5, +1mm, etc.). If it's been bored already and at its service limit it would have to be sleeved or you'd need a new block.

    Hey Michael. Great video. I’m rebuilding mine at the moment and video really helped… I’m stuck at the timing part…. #3 is at TDC, crank is locked. Cam is locked and my cam gear installed. Timing lines are perfect. However I noticed the marks On the crank and balancer don’t meet up. They are both at the 6 o’clock position. There is nothing in the manual that I have found that says anything about those marks being lined up when setting time. Are those marks for crank/balancer installation only. Or do they play into setting the timing??

    Thank you. That's awesome! Glad I could help. Sorry I haven't gotten a chance to do a video on the timing yet. Basically to check timing you need to use the starter to turn the engine over. Put a compression gauge in one of the cylinders and using the allen bolts on the cam sprocket move them until you are around 145psi. To do this you would use the cam lockout tool and spin the bolt on the supercharger either clockwise or counter to get to the desired psi (145). That's a perfect starting. Recheck after the rings are broken in and you're good to go.

    Was looking for part 3 also. Does the starter for this motor have a gear or just a shaft with flat sides? I pulled my starter out and there is no gear on it. Wondering if it snapped in two and it’s in the crankcase? Starter motor would run but not turn the engine.

    I'm in the final stages of assembly after rebuild. The lower end turned nice and smooth prior to installing the head. Crank and balance shaft mark are aligned, locking tool used on the crank and head. Installed the head, and timing chain ensuring the 1503 timing marks are lined up. Question is, how hard should it be to spin the motor over with the head on it and plugs removed? I really seem to feel some resistance from the valve springs as it turns over......is that normal?

    If the valvetrain and timing chain are all on, it's going to be pretty hard to turn over by hand after that due to all the valve spring resistance. That's normal.

    @@bjensen64 yes that's the valve springs since they will load up and then unload depending on what stroke they are on. You generally notice the same thing when turning over the engine by the supercharger if your ski has one. If the engine spun over before the heads and cam timing installed you should be good as long at you checked that the cam moved freely in the head before installing all of the valvetrain. Also making sure timing it correct and the cranks not stopping and no longer turning over. That would indicate valve interference. .

    They're never going to be totally level. It'll usually be angled down towards the exhaust side a bit. Even at 100 with them close to level it seems like there's another problem. Either rings are not sealing (are the ring end gaps staggered? ) or you have leaking valves. .
