I finally completed the conversion to a single battery. I even used the old rubber battery bases by cutting out one side of each. It's a snug fit. I even got a $6 core refund on each used battery!
I'm NEVER going to remove the oil tank again if possible, though. It was really tough to get the oil filler hose to the tank back onto both flanges and tightened down. I'll try removing the exhaust system, first. It's gotta be easier.

Is this the stuff you're supposed to spray into the air cleaner cover hole? What's that for, anyway?

Is there any cheaper/easier-to-find substitute for Bombardier lube?

Well, duh! It never even occurred to me that they would use two 12-volt batteries.
I just assumed that they would use one large standard battery if they needed 12 volts. But why would SeaDoo doo this? What's the advantage?
Does each engine have an alternator? Is there a separate charging circuit for each? By connecting them together am I risking both charging circuits if one of them goes south?

Please forgive my ignorance, but why would there be cavitation with the stock rings, and why do these custom ones stop it? I don't think I've noticed this cavitation... Is it the same as getting the intake port out of the water in heavy chop?
