I have a 3 up with IBR and from what I heard if you have the non IBR the flush kit is easy to DIY install but if you have the IBR its a huge bitch so i had the dealership install it.
I understand how to flush it using the flush kit from the manual and dealership telling me how to but the manual also says...
On page 91, right column under the warning box that says " clean propulsion system by spraying water in its inlet and outlet and then apply a coating of XPS lube or equivalent. "
Is the inlet the water intake on the bottom and the outlet the ass on the back where the water comes out? Stupid question but im new to this and couldnt find any "inlet " or " outlet " labels on things in the manual.
I don't even know where the impeller is yet but i heard it rusts out quick on this and so i want to make sure hit hit it with liquid film and salt away. is it on the bottom / intake area?
Also.... ive heard mixed reviews from people on if you are supposed to spray inside the spark water / salt away, etc.. from the side panel? Some people say don't add more water to an area that seems to remain dry on these sparks so don't do it and some say ya def flush the whole area, just not the little filter thing on the left.
From what I understand it seems the rules about flushing the spark are different than on most other PWCs and with new rules comes come confusion. **** my dealership told me break in period was 10 hrs and first servicing was after 10 hrs. I called BRP after hearing otherwise and they said no, the break in period is 5 hrs and first servicing is after 50hrs, to tell the dealer to read the manual and know that things are different with the Spark.
