  • 2013 seadoo rxt running rough?

    I have a new rxt 13 hrs on it just passed the breakin stage... I took it out yesterday and it ran great until about an hr into the run.. When I would give it throttle it started to lag and jump in and out of throttle and also the engine sounded rough I stopped right away and checked the engine to make sure everything looked ok it seemed ok no excessive amounts of water or anything didn't feel any hotter than any other days I rode but after I cut off the engine It didn't want to restart and when it did it ran for about 15 seconds and cut off and then didn't not want to restart needless to say I was pissed about 4 or 5 miles from the dock I let it sit for about 15 min and tried to restart again it fired up and rode really rough up to about 20 mph then would get a quick burst of throttle and take off then bog down again it acted this way for about 3 4 miles then started to run fine again right before it got to the dock the lag in the throttle was mainly between 5mph and 20mph I took the ski in to check the intake and everything and it had no debris in there I read a few ppl saying check the spark plugs and change them out I am planing to try that this afternoon when I get home unless I hear other wise... On a side note last weekend I had someone trying to get on from the side and rolled the ski it was flipped back over immediately and pulled ashore to drain the water out after that was done the next day ( Sunday and also Monday) I rode it basically all day and it ran great

  • Rotted 2x4 on ga slab sill needs replaced?

    I have a garage that is on a concrete slab and is vinyl siding... I realized earlier today that the sill plate is basically gone where the jack for my door sits it's a French door not an overhead door after poking around some I found that the sill is rotted for about 2 foot and then is about 20% rotted out after 2 foot as far as I could go most of the inside of the she'd has 1/4 in paneling up... Also about 2 to 3 in of the 2x4 studs are starting to rot out... I'm assuming it is that way all the way around as the outside grading is about the same height as the slab I would like to some how raise the sill plate up by using paver size solid bricks about 3 in or using 4in block just didn't know if setting it up 8in would be safe that's why I am thinking of pavers or of anyone else has any other ideas that they could throw out that would be great I am in va if that ResizedImage951398279215050.jpg w my climate thanks in advance
