That is absolutely correct. Smooth ide also yes. Basically like I completely loose the throttle until the exhaust is out of the water. The instant the tail pipe comes out it's 100% power and instant rpms instantly

I may have figured what might be causing my power loss. I meticulously went thru all my wiring after taking all plastic off the machine and thoroughly checked the condition of the connections all was great shape. So greased all the plugs anyway. Went out yesterday and came too a spot that was deep with hard bottom perfect for a test with lots of people too help if need be. I've concluded that water is getting into the exhaust somehow and getting a o2 sensor wet. Could anyone verify that this would be a possibility?

A couple cold ones in now. I have verified that it is 100% not spark related. Unplugging a coil or removing a boot and putting top ground and running it's wayyyyy more rough than when wet and it does not set off the mill light. So now I'm thinking while greasing every connection.. I really do wonder what it is. Can't be charging or battery related as I verified my volts are at 14.2 lowest being 13.8 when the problem occurs.

So I called the dealer they say there is no way for me too get a flash code and the claim codes are stored. There 3 hours away so that's quite the gamble too drive there just too see. Can't find anything online too tell me what to press too get the flash code.

Any idea what staying on solid means? Or would the code be stored even with the light off? And how too check or only the dealer be able too tell me?

ZForce 800 EX, 53 & Trail / Z800 power loss
August 04, 2020, 10:53:33 AM
Recently I have lost at least half power when entering water maybe 1.5' deep my machine is snorkelled. I ended up getting water into the clutch the first time I figured my complete power loss must have been due too that but doubted it. Found the exhaust melted the snorkel at a seam. So redid them completely and used plenty more exhaust wrap on both the exhaust and the snorkel piping. But since I have still had a problem, crossing water I'll loose power, can't get any rpm out of it even in neutral thus causing me too become "stuck" the injector light will come on and stay on. But while being pulled out it gets too a point of about that 1' 8" roughly all power comes back 100% and away I go like nothing happened. I turn the key off for a few seconds start it back up and light goes out. I've check the plug wires, all connections I can possible find. I'm stumped. Has annoying had a similar experience or have any idea what els I could check? I've tried spraying it with water running in the shop with the fire hose not being able too duplicate the problem.

ZForce 800 EX, 53 & Trail / Re: Throttle cable froze
March 10, 2019, 05:16:11 PM
I had both throttle and brake cables freeze on me this year from going thru water last summer. I took the rubber boots off the cable ends and put engine antifreeze in the ends and blew it thru with compressed air. Worked absolutely perfectly👌🏻 Came out the other ends and haven't froze yet. Now too bad I can't use antifreeze in the battery lol

What year of Honda were they from or off of? Or do you have a part number possibly?

Really wish I could get pictures in here but anyway I cut a flap in the cubby hole under the hood to access the fuse box put a seal and latch on it and it was the fuse that blew for my fan. So I think all should be good now

Found them. I had to take the hood off, remove the liner underneath and the fuse box is there. Kinda a PITA since my heater is under the hood and plumber thru the liner
