• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    Is it Ok to use ethanol gas? Anyone have problems?

    Have a 2013 ST-L with the 998cc. Have been using non-ethanol gas since I bought the bike in 2017. It was easy to find non-ethanol in FL, and NC but since moving to SE VA I find it hard to locate non-ethanol gas. Thinking about switching to ethanol blended gas. Anyone have problems using this stuff.

    ST with Check engine light & codes P0107 and C1290 - fixes?

    Thanks for all the help. Thanks to Snowbelt on the heads-up about noise level, I like quiet. I think I know my limits both on patience and experience and think I will let the Pros handle the spark plug wires. The MAP sensor should be received in a week or so, and hopefully that fixes the problem...

    ST with Check engine light & codes P0107 and C1290 - fixes?

    I took the right side engine covers off and I don't think I can get access to the front cylinder spark plug or wire without a lot more work. Looks like the airbox has to come out and more. The parking brake actuator is also right in the way. Left side looks pretty easy.

    Plugs and wires sounds like a great idea! I'll get the 270600040 sensor. Mucho Gracias

    ST with Check engine light & codes P0107 and C1290 - fixes?

    Thanks, I think it is the sensor as all connections look good. I found this one on Ebay - https://www.ebay.com/itm/185530802692 And this one on Amazon - https://www.amazon.com/Sea-Doo-New-Pressure-Sensor-270600040/dp/B06XSK3X2F (this is the one Can Am website identifies and the right one but I...

    ST with Check engine light & codes P0107 and C1290 - fixes?

    Just reinstalled using new silicon 3mm vacuum hose. Runs just the same. Won't start unless you keep above 3,500 rpms. Seems like after the check engine light comes back on it will idle, but roughly. Bad sensor?

    ST with Check engine light & codes P0107 and C1290 - fixes?

    The both vacuum hoses were hard. No cracks but fit loose on the MAP sensor. New hose came in today. Will install later today. The voltage error code C1290 hasn't come up again. Every time I get the engine started (with the old hose) the P0107 does come back. Does the code clear itself after...

    Got it out. Is it 3mm vacuum hose (silicon)?

    ST with Check engine light & codes P0107 and C1290 - fixes?

    Thanks, I see one vacuum line. Where is the other? Does the sensor have two vacuum ports? Guess I will have to pull out the sensor to see (access ) the other one.?? Any tricks to pulling it out. Thanks again for the help.

    ST with Check engine light & codes P0107 and C1290 - fixes?

    Battery looks good. 12.8VDC before starting 13.8VDC while running. I've found if I start it with firm throttle and keep it running about 3,500 rpms until it warms up some it does run and seems to run OK. After starting it does flash the check engine light. Snowbelt - can you tell me which...

    ST with Check engine light & codes P0107 and C1290 - fixes?

    So was out for a short trip yesterday and heard what sounded like a backfire. The check engine light came on, but it got me home. No limp mode, but I did baby it and it felt different. Tried to start it this morning and it would fire but not run. Check engine light was still on. Read the codes...

    A word about brake pads...

    Take this as you will. I installed on the front wheels of my 2013 ST-L, a set of High Performance EBC Fully Sintered Front Brake Pads. They squealed terribly. Took it apart and applied the caliper lube from Autozone on the moving parts. The brakes still squealed. Took it back apart and used the...

    How close is an RS to an ST?

    I am no expert, but I do have a 2013 ST-L. I don't think that tail cap would fit on my bike. I do wish it would, as it would be great to be able to bungee something back there. I have seen them for sale before but have been hesitant to bite as I don't think it would work.
