did i mention i hate dual carbs? that big dawg mod single carb is lookin better and better....

yea it felt pretty strong, that's for sure.

okay i'll keep you updated. i need to get my hands on a set of 2.0 needle/seats. i'm not sure if i'll be working on mine until after the holiday though, so it may be a while before i can try some stuff.

yea i don't really understand pauls recommendations, because he told me to start off with 112.5 mains and 115 pilots and 2.3 w/95g spring, which seems a lot different than your jetting.

what's wrong with the JW valve? that sounds like a pretty good setup so i'll keep that in mind. i already setup my pipe how you suggested a couple weeks ago and it made a HUGE difference. thanks!

lol i was just looking at my vacuum caps thinking the same thing. i'll give that a try before everything else.

alright i have some 95 gram springs (i think, what color are they again?) so i'll try that first, then i'll mess with the jets after that if i have to. the ski was seemingly running pretty good before i put in my primer and jet works FC valve, so could it be the valve that's maybe causing this...

well i only have smaller jets, so i'll probably just try that. the idle is definately turned up enough, so that's not why i have to give it throttle. i didn't actually use the primer today, and thats when it would only idle for a while so that's probably normal. the only thing that worries me...

i have the primer hooked up to the fuel return line, so can that leak fuel into the carbs? my lows are 120's and my highs are 115's i think. they may be 117.5 but i think they're 115. when i cold start it, i can't touch the throttle or it won't start, but when the engine's heated up, i HAVE...

I'm still having some tuning issues. It's really hard to start when it's cold (has to idle for a loooonnnngg time, if i touch the gas it dies) and after it's warm i have to throttle it up a lot to get it to start. then when i'm riding it, it bogs only sometimes, and sometimes it's bad enough...

damn man i'd just leave that alone. if my ski ever ran half as good as what you're describing i would be jumping with joy.

ok thanks man, i don't know a damn thing about gas and octane and all that so i just wanted to make sure.

I've been running a 50/50 mix of 110 octane race gas from around here and 93 octane pump gas, and i was just filling up at the 110 octane pump and read that it is leaded gasoline? is all race gas leaded, or should i not be running this in a jet ski engine?

yea, what frosty said.

not yet, i was wondering if i need to change popoff, because i'm running a 2.3 n/s with a 115g spring. so i'm gonna lower that and see what happens first.

sounds like a bad bendix to me. if it is, there is no need to remove the starter, just remove the flywheel cover and flywheel and then cough up the dough for a new bendix, i just had the same problem.

yea i'd like to know too, mine is weak

if it's for a superjet, it's 18 on the headbolts and 23 on the girdles

did you ever figure out what was causing you to have to give it throttle every time you started it? i'm having similar issues with my 44's, where i have to prime it to cold start it on the lift, and then when i put it into the water i have to completely floor it to get it started, then it runs...

yea those fit just like my x-jet holds do. you'll love them, and never be able to ride a different set again.
