Capsized Boat; Submerged Boat; Water-Flooded Engines; Fuel-Flooded Engines - BOMBARDIER SeaDoo Speedster 200 Operator's Manual

Capsized Boat

The sport boat is designed so that it
should not turn over easily due to its
long and wide dimensions. If the sport
boat ever capsizes, remember that it
will continue to float. It is usually best
to remain with it, you will be more eas-
ily located by others.
WARNING
When boat is capsized, do not at-
tempt to restart the engines. Oper-
ator and passengers should al-
ways wear approved personal
flotation devices.

Submerged Boat

To limit damages to the engines, per-
form the following procedure as soon
as possible.
Drain bilge.
If it was submerged in salt water, spray
bilge and all components with fresh wa-
ter using a garden hose to stop the salt
corroding effect.
CAUTION: Never try to crank or start
the engines. Water trapped in intake
manifolds would flow towards the
engines and may cause severe dam-
age to the engines.
Bring the sport boat to be serviced by
an authorized Sea-Doo dealer as soon
as possible.
CAUTION: The longer the delay be-
fore you have the engine serviced,
the greater the damage will be to the
engines.

Water-Flooded Engines

CAUTION: Never try to crank or start
the engines. Water trapped in intake
manifolds would flow towards the
engines and may cause severe dam-
age to the engines.
Bring the sport boat to be serviced by
an authorized Sea-Doo dealer as soon as
possible.

CAUTION: The longer the delay be-
fore you have the engines serviced,
the greater the damage will be to the
engines. Failure to have the engines
properly serviced may cause severe
engine damage.

Fuel-Flooded Engines

When an engine does not start after
several attempts, that engine may be
fuel-flooded. Proceed as follows.
Crank engine several times.
If it does not work:
Disconnect ignition coil connectors.
WARNING
When disconnecting coil from
spark plug, always disconnect coil
from main harness first. Never
check for engine ignition spark
from an open coil and/or spark
plug in the engine compartment
as spark may cause fuel vapor to
ignite.
Remove ignition coils.
CAUTION: Ensure there is no dirt in
coil holes prior to removing the spark
plugs. Otherwise, dirt would fall into
cylinder and will damage the internal
components.
Remove spark plugs.
NOTE: After untightening the spark
plugs, a coil may be used to pull the
spark plugs out. Simply bring the coil
down to spark plug and "hook" it to
then extract spark plug.
Install new spark plugs if available or dry
spark plugs using a rag.
Cover spark plug holes with a rag.
Reinstall spark plugs and ignition coils.
Install clean dry spark plugs if possible.
Reconnect ignition coil connector.
