Not a Boat Question?

Question

2004 Polaris watercraft: We have a Model 110 MSX, with a 4 stroke engine, turbo charger.

The engine pulses when it is idleing, and it also does it when it's hot. Does anyone have an idea as to the cause? I need to know also, where the oil filter is located.

Hi,
Pulsing can be caused by many different things, an air leak, bad or dirty injector, weak fuel pump, throttle position sensor being loose.
It's just best to take that into a shop if it bothers you to the point of needing it repaired.
The Techs can hook it up to a computer and view all of the system and pinpoint the problem.
Here's a diagram of your engine showing the filter.
