Owning a Sea-doo Spark Watercraft means embracing fun and adventure on the water. However, these bad boys are not cheap purchases. And like any expensive item, taking care of them is a must to get the bang out of your buck.
To ensure your watercraft remains in optimal condition, regular maintenance is crucial. Here are five easy maintenance tips to keep your Sea-doo Spark running smoothly and extend its lifespan.
After every ride, especially in saltwater, it’s important to clean and flush your Sea-doo Spark. This is to remove salt, sand, and debris that can cause corrosion and damage to the engine.
To flush the engine, connect a garden hose to the flush port and run fresh water through the engine for approximately two minutes. Keep a close eye on the engine and make sure it’s running to prevent water from backing up into cylinders.
When cleaning the exterior, rinse the exterior with fresh water and use a mild detergent to any stubborn dirt. Dry with a soft cloth to prevent water spots and apply marine wax for added protection.
A well-maintained battery is essential for the reliable operation of your Sea-Doo Spark. Make sure to keep the batter charged, especially during the off season. We recommend using a marine battery charger to maintain an optimal charge level. Additionally, inspect the battery terminals for corrosion. Then, clean with a mixture of baking soda and water if needed and apply a terminal protector to prevent future corrosion.
- Add a fuel stabilizer to the tank to prevent the fuel from breaking down and causing engine problems.
- Apply fogging oil to the engine to protect it from moisture and corrosion.
-
Use a breathable cover to protect your watercraft from dust, debris, and UV damage while in storage.
