Yamaha 2014 WaveRunner FX Cruiser SHO - Page 8 - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

what hp engine ? 2 or 4 stroke ?

plugs out and crank the water out , put your finger over plug holes as you do this and will help purge water from crank ! Plug caps away from plug holes !! have a battery jump pack ready as will take a while ! if plugs ok then clean with carb/brake cleaner once most water is out then put a sqwert of fuel in each cyl then plugs in hand tight and get cracking coz if left too long crank etc already rusting ! DONT STOP till you got it running as you will have to clean the plugs several times ! Try all three plugs at first then if struggling two plugs and one out with rag over hole and plug cap away safe from plug hole so not to spark fuel !!!! NO SMOKING !!! Fire extinguisher handy !!! once running ON ALL THREE CYL'S , not one or two as you can sieze the engine take to lake and give a good run and making sure all cyls working ! can do this while strapped to trailer in water as long water circulating !

put kill key on post and press starter for a sec and clocks show hours ! ; )

dirty connections or broken wires or clocks broke!

degrease engine when you got covers off then run in tub of water and look where its coming from !

fuel pump diaphrams could be hard ! compressions all over 100psi minimum pressure? carbs clean ?

if bolts on them are really tight then remove the engine ! heavy !

find your nearest yamaha dealer and take the engine ! or take pictures of engine and take regulator !

disconnect throttle cables and kill switch , tilt arm up and where it pivots on the back there is a plate with a couple of bolt or a large nut to remove and it then comes off !

its just a serial id number so you can order parts for that engine and if its stolen you can track it ! the S says its a short shaft !

50mph is correct for the vx 1100 !

if they say its on warranty then they should repair all damage , and engine should be stripped !!

strip and check starter bearings etc !

clean the carbs and check carb and pump diaphrams not hard ! balance b4 you refit !

whats wrong with it as you dont say ??

does it turn or can you hear a click as you try ? if its not turning check the starter brushes and if it clicks then replace solinoide !

clean the carb/s as the jets etc sound like they are blocked !

strip the carbs !!!!

i recomend replacing the solinoide !!!

remove coil caps and use a socket !
