2000 gp1200r will go 5 mph with rpms 8000

There is nothing stuck in the impeller. took off all the housing and nothing is jammed. For some reason the waverunner will plane out when you are turning, and run on a plane fine but will not take off going streight..

Have you checked your impeller, even on the sandiest beach all it takes is 1 pebble to damage it. Its a common problem (all noise and no action) if it was a car you could liken it to clutch slip or wheel spin, when you take the impeller out the damage will be fairly obvious, ding marks on the leading edge and bent areas on the trailing edge. Solution :- Birmingham Screwdriver (Hammer) and cobblers last or tow hitch ball. Gently hammer out the bent bits and smooth the sharp edges off the ding bits (Both of these cause cavitation). This should get you back on the water within the hour. If this sounds a bit too much to have a go at then seek professional help. There are plenty of companies out there who can do the job, it's just a question of cost and time. Give it a go, you never know it might work.

Starts and runs and RPMs are good but it won't go above 5 MPH. Checked intake and I have the rooster tail of water but no speed

you may have to check the pump unit for obstruction
the impellers are known to wear from abrasion from sand in the water and not operate efficiently.
tip

F02: The wet vac was a great tip. Pulled the pump and detached the impeller...

This advice is for Kenmore Elite and Whirlpool Duet model FRONT LOADING washing machines. If you experience a problem where the washer does not drain properly or the drain pump makes excessive noise, here’s the information you need to check the drain pump:

Symptom: PUMP IS RUNNING, BUT NOT DRAINING PROPERLY.

  1. Unplug the washer while servicing inside the unit.
  2. Remove the lower kick panel under the door by removing the three 7mm screws under the bottom edge of the panel. HINT: Use a couple of blocks of wood to prop up the front feet of the washer to gain better access to the screws. Once the screws are removed the panel should drop down, and then pull off. If the panel becomes stuck, a slight tap on either side will dislodge it.
  3. Locate the drain pump. It will be located directly under the wash tub (it is the only pump this washer has).
  4. There is an access removal cover on the pump that can be removed to clean out the trap. BEFORE doing this, it is strongly recommended that you remove all residual water from the wash tub & drain line or you will have about a gallon or so inside your washer and on the floor to clean up.
  5. Here’s a helpful way of quickly removing the residual water. If you own a wet/dry shop vac, remove the drain hose from the standpipe at the wall and pull a vacuum with the shop vac. This will empty the wash tub, pump and drain lines. If you don’t own a shop vac, grab a bunch of old towels and open the access on the pump slowly so that it comes out at a trickle. Allow the towels to soak up the majority of the water. Close the access and stop the water if you need to get additional towels.
  6. Open the pump access and remove once you have all the water drained. Check the drain pump for foreign objects and debris. Check the pump impeller and make sure there’s nothing caught in it. Items as small as toothpicks or cotton swabs have been known to stop this pump from working.
  7. Clean out the pump thoroughly and reinstall the access cover. Make sure the cover is snug, but do not over tighten.
  8. Place the drain hose back in the standpipe (IMPORTANT – DO NOT FORGET!).
  9. With the bottom panel still off, plug the washer back in and select the following on the operator console – DRAIN SPIN, NO SPIN, and then press any button under OPTIONS 4 times (it must be the same button). “C00” will show on the console display as the washer begins diagnostics mode.
  10. Check the drain pump for leaks as the washer fills. The pump is gravity filled and will hold water even it is not pumping. Allow washer to run through diagnostics until it begins the wash tub tumble cycle.
  11. At this point, you can stop the diagnostics procedure by pressing PAUSE/CANCEL 2 times. The drain pump energizes and the washer will begin to drain.
  12. If the drain pump works normal and there are no leaks detected, reinstall the bottom panel and tighten screws.

NOTE: It is normal to have residual water left inside the wash tub under the wash basket. This is why it is important to leave the door ajar when not in use so this water does not become sour.

Will only get up to 10 mph but RPM's are up to 8000. Impeller in good shape. No exhaust alarms. Newbie to waverunners.

I just had one do basically the same thing. I had to replace the impeller. It felt like a clutch was slipping. If they get any dings or nicks or anything in the impeller they will not getup speed at all.

Engine light is on, revs to over 8000 RPM ... check gas cap as instructed by owner guide and said to drive 3 days and it should shut off .. now rev'ing over 8000 RPM

not a good situation! could blow your engine!! take it to a qualified honda dealer, and have them run code check on it- may be 'tps'- throttle position sensor. the code read may cost more than the fix! however, 8k rpms aren't healthy for your engine- so, check and fix may be cheaper than replacing engine! could also be your fuel vapor recovery canister is 'over -loaded', but unlikely!
good luck!

RPM's and speed don't match how they should.

Not to sound rude, but, having someone messing with the fuses is a bad thing. There is a Technical Service Bulliten on this issue where the radio cuts out. For the running issue now, I would see a VW tech that knows what he/she is doing.
