FLUSHING AND LUBRICATION 0
GENERAL
Flushing the cooling system with fresh water is
essential to neutralize corroding effects of salt or
other chemical products present in water. It will
help to clean up sand, salt, shells or other particles
in water jackets (engine, exhaust manifold, tuned
pipe) and/or hoses.
Flushing and engine lubrication should be per-
formed when the watercraft is not expected to be
used further the same day or when the watercraft
is stored for any extended time.
PROCEDURE
Clean jet pump by spraying water in its inlet and
outlet and then spray BOMBARDIER LUBE lubri-
cant.
SP, SPX and GTS Models
Remove seat to allow access of cooling system.
XP Model
Remove rear access cover.
SP, SPX, GTS and XP Models
Remove dust cap from fitting spigot and attach
coupler hose (P/N 295 500 258). Make sure cou-
pler hose is properly locked to fitting spigot.
Install a hose pincher on water outlet hose.
TYPICAL
1. Coupler hose
2. Fitting spigot
3. Hose pincher
Attach other end of coupler hose to a garden hose.
GS Series, GTI and GTX Models
Connect a garden hose to the water outlet located
at the rear of the watercraft.
-CAUTION
Failure to flush cooling system, when neces-
sary, will severely damage engine and/or ex-
haust system. Never flush a hot engine.
Make sure engine operates during entire
procedure.
◆WARNING
Perform this operation in a well ventilated
area. Do not touch any electrical parts or jet
pump area when engine is running.
◆WARNING
Always remove safety lanyard cap from
switch to prevent accidental engine starting
before cleaning the jet pump area. Engine
must not be running for this operation.
-CAUTION
This prevents water from exiting through
outlet socket. Remove hose pincher after
flushing operation.
-CAUTION
Do not open water tap yet.

Fuel System
Sea-Doo Fuel Stabilizer (P/N 413 408 600) should
be added in fuel tank to prevent fuel deterioration
and carburetor gumming. Follow manufacturer’s
instructions for proper use.
NOTE: Fuel stabilizer should be added prior en-
gine lubrication to ensure carburetor protection
against varnish deposit.
Always turn the fuel valve to OFF position when
storing the watercraft.
Cooling System Flushing and Engine
Internal Lubrication
Cooling system has to be flushed with fresh wa-
ter to prevent salt, sand or dirt accumulation
which will clog water passages.
Engine must be lubricated to prevent corrosion on
internal parts.
For proper procedure, refer to MAINTENANCE
01-03.
-CAUTION
Water in engine drain hose must be free to
flow out, otherwise water could be trapped
in engine. Should water freeze in engine, se-
vere damage will occur. Check engine drain
