CRAP:bs2: As I stated earlier, ski ran great on the hose, but this weekend I get it out at the river and the same dam problem accures. Starts great on the trailer, get it on the water for maybe 45 seconds and the engine dies. would restart, but barely as if the battery was low. idles ok, but...

The TS is running again thanks to your help. I cut back the spark-plug wire enough to get spark. Had it running on the hose for 10min without any problems. I will have it out at the river in a fews weeks for the ulimate test, but I feel there wont be any troublew. Thanks for yoyur help.

I think the 750 sitdown exhaust tip points up on a 45 degree angle into the waterbox like the TS 650. If they are the same, has anyone modified their stock waterbox or the tip of the exhaust pipe on the 750 system? Kawasaki puts a wire mesh inside the stand-ups waterbox. but I dont know if they...

waterbox Now that I have the box removed, thanks Wedoseadoo, what if any modifications can I do on the waterbox or the exhuast pipe? I know on my two 550's, I can pull out the mesh inside the waterbox, but is there anything I can do on this TS? even worth doing anything?

Thanks..I did just that. I was not to sure and went ahead and tried it. I just came in to add this post to tell what I discovered. I found on the bottom of the waterbox a 10mm plug (one of two) that had rusted through. Also noticed a small dime size hole inside the waterbox, on the wall that...

Leaking water-box "Holy-*#!@%$ Batman" how does this come off? I removed the CDI unit, battery and the oil tank. The head pipe contacts at the first billow with two hose clamps, I loosen those. The second billow connects the pipe to the water box with two hose clamps, I loosen those. The pipe...

Fixed????? While I was cutting back on the front spark plug wire, I discovered that the core-wire was broken inside the spark plug wire, about 1 1/4" piece. It looked shinny with no green corrision. But when I cut the wire back enough to expose the core-wire, it was green. I put the boot back...

Still trying to dial in my newest ski to me. A 90'TS 650. I think I've finally fix the electrical issue I've ask here about(cut back the spark plus wires), but while I was running the ski on the houses water hose, I saw were all the water has been leaking from. At the point were the waterbox and...

I have a 90' TS 650 is just recently bought. Took it out for about an hour when I first got it and ran well for a TS. On the second trip a few weeks ago it would run for about a minute or two and the die, as if you hit the kill switch. Would start right up again and then die right away. Put it...
