How to Remove Debris from your SEADOO JETSKI SPORTSTER Boat. Trial and Error! I thought it would be a simple fix - just take off the intake grate by removing a few bolts, getting a pair of long pliers and pulling out the debris, and slapping the grate back on. NOPE! To my surprise, there is a hidden lock nut under the engine on the inside. Watch the video to see how to fix it and what to do if you break the bolt! Apparently it’s pretty common!
Does your jetski suddenly move slower and seems to rev up but just not go anywhere? Did you possibly suck up debris into the intake and get something stuck in the prop? That's what happened to me. All jetskis and seadoos work by a powerful water suction driving it through the prop and depend on that suction to move the boat. It is probably the most powerful vacuum cleaner in the water! If you accidentally travel over shallow water with any debris, you can suck it up and sometimes it gets lodged in the prop slowing down your jetski.
I tried to make a clip showing the challenges and ultimate success of taking off the intake grate, repairing and replacing a snapped bolt as well as the threaded insert, and removing the debris! I hope it helps you!
