I have a 99 SeaDoo Challenger and just a couple days ago we were on the lake when I lost all of the oil out of the tank. I had not noticed any leaking at all prior to this happening. Apparently the oil is leaking straight out of one of the hoses or a fitting directly below the left motor. Has this ever happened to anyone? How do I go about fixing this?

Is it a Merc or Rotax? I'd fill reservoirs and start motor, then see if you can find leak. Don't take boat out until its fixed--unless you want a blown engine.

It's the twin rotax. And I put less than a fourth of a quart in there and it pours out almost as quickly as I can put it in there and it is from directly beneath the motor where I cannot see it just the stream of oil running from it.

Sounds like you have a hose off or a hole in reservoir. I'm not familiar w/Rotax, as I have a merc. You'll prolly need to remove engine to inspect. Good luck
