FWIW my brother has a pair of 03 GTX supercharged units that have about 90 hrs on them and he has not changed the washers yet, I know they get unhooked from the water a lot more than a boat does, he has run Amsoil 10w-40 made for super charger clutches since new in 03'. He is Planning to change them soon, I'll give an update when I see them.

I had the 10 hr strong recommendation on my 02 GTX 4 Tec that was 80 hrs ago and 7 yrs, you'll be ok for more than a little while!

I hate to burst your bubble but this was just a sales pitch, see here: http://seadoosportbo...180-challenger/

Thanks Kevin,

I don't understand why SeaDoo would take such a chance on damaging there reputation over such a tiny issue? What do they hope to save per boat $10 bucks? This is the kind of stuff that got automakers in trouble. In any event I'll be sending a letter to the dealer asking them to confirm what was told to me and if it proves different I'll have it in writing. The boat does have a 1+1 warranty and I'll be considering what to do before that period ends.

Spark plug change? last year I could not start my 03 GTX with original plugs, it kept running worse and worse; put in new plugs and bam! fired right up!
