    Help me identify a part?

    OK I got an answer from Scarab. It is a spacer for the safety cable on the wake board tower. It come with the tower from MTK but Scarab uses something different as that one will not allow the tower to fold down low enough.

    23hrs and now wrench popped up lol

    Unfortunately you have to reset your maintenance counter. Have to hook up a laptop to the engine. There some other threads that talk about some aftermarket software you can buy to do this yourself

    @Bigev hopefully this helps. Since there is no way to advance the throttle on the controll box like the manual says you have to get someone to help. Find the tas module, it located under the helmet on scarabs lift the starboard side bow seat back and remove the vinyl curtain that hides the...

    hopefully this is a visible pic but you zoom in on the cutout you can see nut for the front intake grate

    Help me identify a part?

    They are not enclosed in fiberglass but Coverd with black silicone sealant. When you attempt to back off the nut it usually starts spinning. I did have one where the customer was able to get them out but not back in. It would be nice if they would design it different.

    Help me identify a part?

    here's the pic directly from the Rotax service manual. As you will notice it shows the front 2 bolts going thru the hull. And I am a certified brp technician.

    hot water in center storage

    Your corect. The reason I posted it was the comment someone stating that there is not a nut in the jet pump. I had one that was tightened from the factory, no thread marks in the nylon. I'm not trying to give bs info.

    Help me identify a part?

    @ScarabMike I know exactly what I'm talking about otherwise I wouldn't post it. I'm not trying to act like I know what I'm talking about, I do. All I'm trying to do is help people with the truth. I am a certified Rotax Tech that works on both scarab and Glastron.

    Another tower speaker question

    Tower speakers are very easy to install. If you have the premium sound package it is allready wired for lighted speakers. The wires are inside the tower just remove the rubber plug where the speaker would go, it may take a little work to get them out. The wiring for the tower needs to be...

    Help me identify a part?

    Post a pic. Scarab do not come with any type of tool kit. @ScarabMike most people will never remove their intake grate as the forward 2 bolts are thru bolted to the hull. They are not very easy to get to with the driveshaft still installed.

    Rope clog-

    here's a couple of service manual pics. Unfortunately they don't give a good waterflow diagram on the intercooler side. When a ski rope gets wrapped up that bad it can rip the shafts guard down due to the rope going straight down thru the intake grate. Running the engine after sacking up a ski...

    hot water in center storage

    Here's a pic of a jet pump where the oring got during installation, it allowed water to get into the impeller cover and bearing. As you can see the bearing is in pieces. If you look closely there is a nylock nut on the impeller shafts. If that nut comes off it destroys the entire pump housing...

    hot water in center storage

    At high speeds you won't get much water in the bow area. At low speeds in moderate chop and even at the dock waves can get to these areas. I had a 215 that I spent hours on trying to find where water was coming from. It ended up being from the bow eye andoctor was letting enough water in that...

    Cleanout <is Yamaha the only brand with them?>

    This is always going to be an issue with jets. Yamaha has issues with the clean outs, I see people that don't get them locked into place properly and they blow out while under way, usually loosing the plug in the lake. Sometimes it blows the door off that covers the clean outs. If the clean...

    Speedometer Went Out

    The gauges in the glastron are made by medallion. If you lost both the analog Guage and the digital readout it is more than likely the GPS antenna. This is located under the helm screwed in on the underside. It is a small black box with an electrical connector plugged into it. Have seen these...

    Thoughts on Source of Damage

    It almost looks like a gelcoat repair. It could also be that the 2014 models had numerous issues with gelcoat cracks due to a supplier issue. We sent several boats vacation to the factory for repair and the replaced a couple of decks and several hull and decks.
