Working on a 701 with engine in the ski. I repaired what I needed to repair. I just need to put the flywheel on correctly. I used the Cold-Fusion flywheel holder to take off the flywheel. Do I keep it on while installing the flywheel. Or take it off to align the Woodruff key and then put the...

What is a 63N Engine? What displacement, etc.? It is in our new to us, 1996 Wave Venture.

Yesterday I put a new Interstate AGM battery (FAYTX20L)* in the 1996 701 Wave Venture and this is happening: Bendix Engages, Spins Engine 1-2 Revolutions, then Disengages and just Spins Starter ? If I were to throw parts at it, I would start with a new starter solenoid. But what do you guys...

My highest use on any forum is to ask the stupid questions. This post displays my stupid actions so that others may learn. I am not sure of the cause, but my guess is the answer is found in @JC-SuperJet 's post below. Over the two years which we haven't ridden the 550sx, the ambient temperature...

The battery in the FX1 would engage the bendix but not turn over the engine unless I tried it two or three times. So, I swapped the battery with the new Interstate AGM in the new to us Wave Venture 700 and went riding. Later I tried to start the Wave Venture and the starter would spin but the...

I wouldn't bother you guys and gals with this couch question but for some reason, pwctoday.com does not appear correctly on my computer. I was given a 1996 Yamaha Wave Venture WVT700 (701 62t). I converted it to pre-mix only and did an oil pump injection delete with a blank cover from T.C...

Does anybody know where I can buy at least two Fulton Bow Pin Locks 9" keyed alike ?

I would help out on your fuel bill if you could tow a lightweight runabout boat (two wheel trailer). I figure every mile West you drive is one less mile East I will have to drive.

I bought Flash-FX's original Factory Pipe made specifically for the FX-1, which he bought in 1995 with his FX-1. AND IT LOOKS BEAUTIFUL ! AND HE INCLUDED HIS ORIGINAL DOCUMENTATION AND THE APPROPRIATE CARB JETS !! AND HE INCLUDED A NEW COLLAR AND ROLLED-EDGE HOSE CLAMPS !!! AND THE LUBE FOR...

I rebuilt the carb on the 1995 Yamaha FX-1 701 61x stock engine (It would start rev up and then die -- the in-carb screen had about 3/16" of debris in it. Since rebuild it works perfectly.) But because the oem were old and had fallen apart, after the rebuild I was running it without gaskets...

I got a chance to ride @wavewarrior 's pre-08 RN with a pipe a week ago. I could barely hold on. In my mind/lack of experience it is tuned to go from near idle to light speed. I could probably get used to it. And I could see how that kind of power could get me out of some "I am about to fall...

A week ago I experienced fuel starvation in my FX-1 and was towed back to the launch ramp. It was fuel starvation. There was about 3/16" of debris in the fuel filter in the carburetor. Not anywhere totally obstructed but enough to cause a tow home at the end of a good day. I replaced the...

What's the best pipe for a stock 61x FX-1? And where do I find it?

After riding for about 45 minutes today, the stock 701 61x would start then die. It did it repeatedly and my wife towed me in. I immediately thought fuel starvation and will likely take the carburetor apart and check the fuel screen in the Mikuni SBN44. But when I was checking the engine out...

@waxhead now is your chance to talk this up. My problem is that I have disconnected the reserve switch and the FX-1 fuel tank is too opaque for me to see the fuel level, so I am intrigued by your product. I like it because it is only two port, which is great IMHO for oem tanks which have the...

@JetManiac and @john zigler are my go to jet ski parts vendors. And as everybody knows, they are simply superb!!! But when I can't get something from them, say an OEM Yamaha or Kawasaki part, I order it from Partzilla.com Reluctantly. Because oem parts from Partzilla are expensive and, in...

A Zelle transfer goes directly from my bank account through the Zelle transfer system of the National Banking Association directly into your bank account. No fees are charged for the transfer. Why? Zelle is what the National Banking Association uses to transfer funds. Because banks transfer...

I know a video would be helpful, but I am too embarrassed with my poor skiing ability that I wouldn't post a video even if I didn't hate Google/youtube. But I have a question. Recently I have been leaning forward and engaging the side of the FX-1 about 1 to 1.5 feet back from the tip of the...

An urchin diver buddy of mine is leaving California because he hates the politics and the house prices. He is on a road trip with his wife and kid looking for a home to buy. Right now he is in Smyrna, FL. Anybody here with any knowledge about there?

What is the best Pop Off Tester to buy?
