    Jetting, help me please...

    I just noticed this comment, but there shouldnt be any issues at all with the engine. The entire bottom end has about 20 hours on it tops, everything was brand new, top end was just done, all new gaskets, o rings, etc. Before install the motor was leaktested to 11psi. The stator resistances were...

    Jetting, help me please...

    Would worn splines on my driveshaft cause a rattling or weird noise? I thought my midshaft bearings were prematurely shot for some reason but the bearings are still tight with no wobble, however I can rotate the midshaft to driveshaft has probably about 3 degrees or so of play when I spin it...

    Jetting, help me please...

    I'm not wanting to tune it out of water, I just want it to idle even remotely OK. I have nowhere that I can tie off at a dock and test for hours on end. Everywhere is a public launch that is too busy to do that at. :( Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

    Jetting, help me please...

    Most my testing as been at home hooked up to the hose to keep the engine cool so I'm really just trying to get it to idle and Rev a little into the midrange before I go out to the water. Plugs are always wet. But soon as I screw the mixture screws in even the slightest it won't idle and I have...

    Jetting, help me please...

    Thanks for everyones replies. Maybe I'll try 120 pilots with 135 mains tomorrow. Today was a fail. With how rough the engine idles I'm wondering if there is something wrong with 1 of my carbs. Getting to the point where I'm about ready to cave and buy some blackjack carbs. So demotivating...

    Jetting, help me please...

    Ok so I forgot I could just check my jet kit to see what's missing. I'm currently running 112.5 pilots, and 137.5 mains, 2.0ns with 95g Springs. I'll check pop off in the morning. I believe I had it to around 20psi at 80g Springs I'd I recall correctly. Also both carbs have a fresh rebuild...

    Jetting, help me please...

    I'll get those in the morning, I built up the carbs back in January and forgot to write down the settings. All I know at this point is 2.0N/S and 95g Springs. Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

    I should say, yes I found the jetting database and I based my current setup on the the closest ones I could find on there. Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

    Jetting, help me please...

    Ok I'm hoping someone on here is a guru with jetting on superjets... I cannot for the life of me get mine dialed in. Anyone got any ideas for baseline jetting on my setup? Looking for a better starting point cause clearly what I have no is not working, very rough idle, good low end power, crap...

    Super Jet Engine Lock Washers

    So I am in the process of installing my engine and during reviewing motor shimming techniques I came across engine lock washers by Rhaas and Wamiltons I think. Anyone needed to use these due to engine slipping between washers and mounts? Is there really any need for them? I think the OEM ones...

    Well thank God this is over... Padding and Turf done. Ended up angling the foot holds with a kicker and 1" padding on the floor with a lip at the heel. Also did 18mm of padding inside the foothold where the top of your foot hits. Long story short, padding galore lol. Feels comfy as a cloud...

    Then I noticed my custom ebox had some light cracking from flexing I presume. Sooo I felt like playing with some carbon again. 10 layers thick 5.6oz carbon. Then sanded the back of the box and let it cure to the carbon plate. Then trimmed it up and coated all the sides in LeakSeal just to be...
