Anyone with Jetski/PWC knowledge help!
Hi guys!
We just bought our first jetski, a BUILT 1996 Sea-Doo HX. We put a battery in it, but haven't starteed it yet, when we picked it up, the guy put on a batt. and it started right up. My question is, there is a hose with an attachment that leads to what looks like a fuel filter, but it is attached to nothing. What is it and is that how it should be? I have it circled in the pics below.
Thanks!!
Also, the clear tube by the battery is the vent tube, as it is a liquid electrolyte battery.

I think that large hose is the oil injection line. What does the large hose go to? You may have better results if you ask here:

It isn't oil injected though, it is premix only...

that is a one way valve just leave it alone most likly it just vents to air . or vise versa , ake sure if you use a battery with a vent ( non sealed ) use the clear hose dangling near the battery so if it were to spill it wont be in the hull
