Hi everyone, I have another problem unfortunately. Today I went riding and was trying to do some tricks, it ran perfectly fine until randomly it started bogging when given throttle. I would be going 8 mph max, wot. It was idling perfectly. Once I got to land to check it out I found out my fuel line to the carb came off. There was a lot of water in the hull too because I was trying subs, fountains, etc. I put the fuel line back on to go ride again and it was bogging for another 3 mins straight, then it started fluctuating speeds. the bog was getting a little bit better the more I rode but sometimes I would still be just as bad as it was in the beginning. I went home and checked the carb and there was a lot of white gunk on the inside of the carb, almost looked like milk. What could this be?

Water got in there. Seafoam additive, If water in tank drain tank, and remove water in carb.

I haven't Had noticeable results with sea foam. Would only use it as a stabilizers for ethanol but I Am currently using sta-bil.
The white stuff is water mixing with your fuel. Consider a better quality oil. What oil are you using?
Fuel lines shouldn't be coming off. Hope you are using zip ties. Not only do you want to prevent the lines from coming off but if they are that loose they can let air in and lean your mix.
If your lines were off, you may have water in the tank. Tilt the ski slightly back and to one side, unscrew your pickup tubes and look into the low corner for water on the bottom. This won't work if you use an oil with a lot of dye like standard tcw3 unless the tank is almost empty.
Are you running a bilge pump? If not, you need one. Don't keep doing subs/ fountains etc until the bilge has stopped pumping.

yes I had a Sea-Poo that had that notorious white sludge,,,, yuck.... and yea a 650sx without a bilge pump is a no-no...I JUST started riding standups this year (my 650sx) and it has a push button bilge, and ill tell you, I was better off keeping ON the whole time instead of me trying to only turn it on when I "thought" I had water in the hull....
Any update on this?

Does leaving it on the whole time kill your battery?
