I have had this problem for 2 years with my idle and I finally figured out my problem. There are 2 adjustments of the throttle cable.
1. On the Handle
2. Lower down near the jet pump (I had to remove the plastic shield)
My idle is back to normal finally. But I think the battery died with my attempts adjusting the idle.
Question to you: If my battery is dying or is low would it sound like this? (I included a video of my attempting to start it) YouTube - GP1300R Starting problem
or
It was running fine but I accidently over tightned the idle screw and it reved up really high. I then shut off the engine immediately. Meanwhile water was still flowing in from the garden hose (about 2 mins while the engine was off). Could this have caused the engine to be "flooded"
This is a stupid question but.
When your in the water doesn't it fill with water? or is it a seperate part?
Today it started but revved really high, which then I shut it off. I think I need to readjust the throttle.
Well it started today but now I have a new problem. Not only does it not idle ( I guess I have to play around with the cable some more) But after it shuts off sometimes it revs all the way up really high.
what could make it rev soo high periodicaly and right after restart?>
Thanks
Well I just found out its going to cost me $1200 to fix. They said it was the Crank case gasket? It was letting in air and not allowing it to idle properly. THe crank was replaced in 2005 and I am certain when yamaha replaced it they didn't do something right the first time. Now my warranty is up. Do you think they will cover it even though the warranty is up. They were the ones that installed the new crank.

Bought an 19 EX Deluxe and then got diagnosed with disc problems. Beats the [email protected]#$ out of my back in rough water.
Found a deal on a 17 VX Deluxe, at least I think it’s a deal, what would y’all expect for 25 hr boat?
BUT, would it be a better ride in rougher water?
Thinking of making the change...
We all know this crap is supposedly everywhere, and some are going to go have fun anyway. That's fine. All I ask is everyone use your best judgement, stay safe, and keep others safe, oh, and keep lots of hand sanitizer or high proof rubbing alcohol on hand when around anything that someone else...
I am doing research for a company that makes a protective coating for the aviation industry and is now looking at the viability of the salt water PWC market. The coating protects both exterior (hull), and engine components. No corrosion after application. Applied by trained professional, like...
