Hey Guys,

Do anybody knows what other Ski-Doo/Sea-Doo Rotax engines & parts are compatible with the Rotax 582.

The thing is that a 582 is exactly the same engine to a 5xx or 6xx that you find in a Ski-Doo or Sea-Doo

The only diference is that the 582 use 2 spark plug for cylinder and it use 2 magnetos BUT I "think" thats are the only diferences.

For example a Crankshaft for a Sea-Doo 587 including all new main and wrist-pin bearings, inner seals and rods. Trued & welded to better than OEM specifications is available for U$195.00 and the same part for a 582 is around U$1,000.oo

Do any body has a cross reference of what parts we can use?

THX,

Isaac

Ignition systems are different , hence the the fly wheel, taper on the crank is different for the fly wheel.
Using a after market crank(welded) on a flying machine is bad news , thats why rotax stopped the cranks being rebuilt , too many failing.

Hey k Dilks,

Just curious, on Sea-Doo/Ski-Doo Rotax engines many people use remanufactured cranks that are welded with no problem. Does Sea-Doo engines do like 9,000 RPM or maybe more and they have no issues. The only thing thats come to my mind why they can fail is bad assembly, out of balance and not running true that you need to check with a dial indicator...................

I know that since we are in the Air is better to have a 100% good and reliable engine but man does 582 crankshaft are super expensive!

THX,

Isaac

The maintenance schedule for the crank replacement is conservative but this is demanded by the fact when they fail then a lawsuit starts ............
If you wish then fit other parts but when they are not the original item then the insurance will not want to now.
I am sure that if the weld etc crank broke just after you take off and are heading for high voltage cables you will think its not such a bargin!!!

I agree the price is vastly different but so are the volumes sold etc etc
