The recommended maintenance schedule includes an initial 10-hour service, followed by regular maintenance every 50 hours or annually. This should include oil changes, spark plug inspections, and checking the jet pump and impeller.
First, check the battery connections and charge. Ensure the safety lanyard is properly attached. Inspect the fuses and verify the fuel level. If problems persist, consult a professional technician.
Use Yamalube 4W 10W-40 oil or an equivalent marine-grade oil for optimal performance. Always check the owner’s manual for specific recommendations.
To winterize, clean the exterior and flush the engine with fresh water. Add fuel stabilizer, change the oil and filter, and remove the battery for storage. Store in a dry, cool place and cover the Waverunner to protect it from dust and moisture.
Stop the engine immediately and check for debris blocking the intake grate or cooling system. Allow the engine to cool down, and inspect the cooling lines for blockages. If overheating continues, seek professional assistance.
Performance can be enhanced by regularly maintaining the engine, using high-quality fuel, and installing performance upgrades like an aftermarket impeller or intake grate. Always ensure modifications comply with local regulations.
Attach a garden hose to the flushing port, start the engine, then turn on the water. Let it run for a few minutes to clear salt and debris. Turn off the water first, then the engine.
Access the spark plugs by removing the engine cover. Use a spark plug socket to remove them, inspect for wear, and replace with new plugs as needed. Tighten to the manufacturer’s specifications.
Poor acceleration can be due to a clogged fuel filter, worn spark plugs, or a damaged impeller. Inspect and replace these components as necessary. Regular maintenance can prevent such issues.
Use a mild detergent and soft cloth or sponge to clean the hull. Avoid abrasive materials that could damage the finish. Rinse thoroughly with fresh water and dry with a clean cloth to prevent water spots.
