Gee, I think that IS the way you find out that it is seized. If it doesn't
turn over, that's it!! As far as the sensor buzzing all the time, I'd say it's
from the water getting into the cylinders. The water corrodes the internal
engine parts, which causes overheating. I'm not sure I'd trust the mechanic
that disconnected the sensor.
Basicly, you now have a big repair bill. BUY A SHORT BLOCK. Don't bother
having them repair the old engine. The repair costs will likely be the same. If
you're smart, you'll keep all the old parts, and sell them, to offset the cost
of repairs. I'm sure the cases and borable cylinders are worth $100 to
somebody. If I remember correctly, a NEW shortblock from sea-doo runs about
$1800, but don't quote me on that. If you want an exact price, call you dealer.
Here is the part number: 290881520
