Hate Sea Doos,hate to ask here ,but my wife's best friend just bought an 04 RXP with 30 hours on it. The oil light came on,she dumped maybe a quart and a half of 2 cycle Yamaha oil in it,then realized it is a 4-stroke. Her husband is in a panic, wants to drain it out and refill with 4 stroke oil, they want my advice,but I haven't messed with PWC's in years. My gut feeling is it will be OK,what do yall think?

Id drain it ..they only hold a quart or two.. refill with synthetic and not worry

Definitely drain it. You should only use the XPS II 4-stroke Bombardier oil in that ski. If she didn't run it with the 2-stroke oil you should be OK. If she did, I'd take it to a dealer...

Robert,
Give me a call tomorrow and i will let you talk to the seadoo tech at the shop and he can give you some info.

BobbyB,e-mail a phone #please. I can't believe I'm in this,but she is my wife's best friend and the local SeaDoo dealer is a prick,he might get to it in August,so It's up to me to help out. Thanks,Robert

as a cert sea doo tech ( worked for the dealer for 6 yrs ) DOO NOT RUN IT.........


Great unit have fun with it

Going by the SeaDoo dealer to get the XPSII oil,what's the procedue to drain and refill?

Actually they just call it XP-S 4-stroke Mineral Oil now. Here's the link from Sea-Doo's site:

But be sure to ask the parts / service guy just to make sure...

...Or you don't have to drain it... just wreck it and get a Yamaha

I have an RXP and with 215 superchared intercooled HP it will eat the lunch on any Yamaha that I've ever seen
