Hi - I'm new to this forum. Just bought my neighbors 97 waverunner last weekend and on the maiden trip with my son yesterday it quit. We suspected a weak battery, but after reading on this forum I decided to check the spark plugs, and yep! the forward plug has bits of aluminum and it looks like the cyclinder is full of aluminum frags :thumbsdown:. The cylinder is at the top of the stroke. Several questions:
1) anyone know the approx. cost of a rebuild on a Yamaha 1200 GP? are there crate motor replacements?:dunno:
2) does the seller have any liability with this? this discovery was a huge disappointment, but it is what it is and I've got to move forward. Any advice is much appreciated.
