When subjected to high instant loads over a long period of time and use (without proper maintenance), these ceramic washers have been known to fail, fracturing into many pieces, which can lead to catastrophic engine failure. From 2003 until 2008, Sea-Doo used ceramic clutch washers in their shaft-driven supercharger assemblies. With its popularity comes the need to service it regularly, and we’re not just talking about regular oil changes. Since its introduction in 2003, the supercharged Rotax 4-tec 3-cylinder has remained one of the most prolific and popular performance powerplants in the industry finding its way in more top speed-pursuing conversion skis, more race-ready watercraft and more enthusiasts’ machines than feasibly any other personal watercraft engine. High performance engines simply require better care, high quality parts and studious maintenance than their less potent siblings.
