    Water coming out sometimes under the console ?

    Bought a new 921 a couple months ago here recently water has been coming out of the console onto my leg while running. Strange thing is it will only do this when you idle for long periods of time then as you get on plane it starts leaking once on plane it WILL NOT LEAK and it will not leak if you don’t idle them get on plane. Yes the water pressure gauge is working any thoughts on this ??

    I have a 721 that was doing the same thing, but only at WOT. The ziptie holding the tube on the gauge wasn't tight enough to create a complete seal. Remove the ziptie put a little sealant on the gauge and ziptie tight.

    And the way the round water pressure sending unit is mounted under the console is horrible hanging by 2 tie straps

    I had a pin hole show up on the fitting on my water pressure gauge. I was getting a mysterious spray at times while running down the lake.
    Ended up taking the dash off and starting the engine one day to prove things out.
    Just took the fitting to the hardware store and matched it up. All good now.

    Yes I was not impressed by the way they mounted the sending unit. Guarantee the sending unit will eventually break those zip ties over time.. my console was full of fiberglass from when they drilled holes in the console to mount everything.

    i re did mine i used a stainless steel hose clamp mounted tight to the fiberglass and drilled a hole in the band after clamping it to the unit then screwed to the fiberglass now it will not bounce around causing the tube to come off again . hopefully anyway you would think a lot of little things would be much better for the money we spend. overall im not overly impressed by lots of things im finding

    No but my back lid does not close tight and it flops around when running down the lake. Yes the sliding trays are in the correct spot. Going to the dealer Friday for them to fix it
