I have 2 Kawasaki's and 1 Seadoo.
For pump maintenance, I know how to do the Seadoo.
What do I need to do with the Kawasaki's?

Ok...no replies yet.
For some reason I cannot find out what I should do and how often.
Gear oil or Grease (and how much)?
Procedure? -
The Kawasakis have sealed bearings, so no grease is required. Some people put oil in them as an indicator that they are leaking, i.e. if oil comes out, water is likely to get in.
Some people service their pump every year, I don't because I don't ride that much. I believe you have older 2-stroke 'Skis that aren't as hard on pumps as the higher powered 4-strokes. The earlier 4-strokes required modification for reliability. The Ultra 130 & 150 require shimming of the pump housing to set the impeller clearance.
Best idea is to get a service manual and the impeller tool before you start on yours.'15 Kawi Ultra 310X
