Actually I was curious as to whether a filter prior to the return jet would make a difference in pressure but I suppose the jet itself would be the most restrictive point so it wouldn’t be an issue. It’s interesting to me that they all use epoxy there when those caps are press fit from factory...
Hey guys don’t worry I got 15 minutes of ride time before my ski was smoked this time so that’s about a new record for me :) lol
I’ll throw some 3m panel bond over it and run it for the trip.
Ed is going to repair them. These caps are pressed from the outside in correct? As in they can’t fall into the barrel? I’m on vacation for another 3 days if I can’t run them I’m Fmd
No black fuel line, clear red from JM.
Whatever it is it’s coming from the carbs and I can’t think of anything besides that epoxy that would look like that. Ski acts up intermittently then I come back to shore and lo and behold a big gooner in my return line. Gonna try to run it here in a...
Interesting, I’ll post some pics up tonight when i pull them. I’m sure it’s the thin stuff that looked like it ran over the edges of where the epoxy was supposed to be. I’ve never seen epoxy in any of my other carbs but they’ve all been older. And it’s only visible in one of the two carbs which...
Yes, I’ve spoken with Ed on this immediately and he is a good dude and I don’t believe he’d steer me wrong. But I also know that fuel will eat anything away over time!! Just off putting to see it in brand new carbs. The epoxy is on the pump side and the pieces are small black hard bits. They...
Anyone own a set of new Fullspec 50’s? Anyone else have epoxy in their carbs?
Reason I’m asking is because I was skeptical upon receiving my brand new carbs and seeing epoxy in them and was told they were all like that and it was normal. Now I’m getting nice little black flakes of what seems to...
It’s insane what some people and shops charge for very sub par work. Just seen a ski up for sale that was put together by a “professional” builder that charged 100 an hour… one of the worst looking engine bays I’ve ever seen lol
Guess everyone’s a professional these days
I see I see
if she’s running the early cast manifold I’d say it’s worth a shot having it machined flat again or using a glass pane and some sand paper to smooth her out. If it’s the new billet style I doubt that’s your issue but it’s worth a pressure check.
How are the water lines run? Any...
^ this coupled with WDK’s flat exhaust manifolds is a recipe for disaster.
I had better luck with a power factor box for what it’s worth but typically I put my ski on the stand backwards so that the tray is towards the shore.
What exhaust pipe and tilted down as in nose or tray down?
Does she ride and put it on the trailer and then it’s hydro locked?
I have pics of the manifold somewhere, imagine a laydown pipe manifold but it’s missing the bottom two inner bolts. It would end up spraying loads of water into the...
Looking for a 2 gallon jazz tank as pictured with any pickup unit in FUNCTIONAL order.
Just dropped 200 plus on a tank that blasts fuel out of the pickup side like it’s on crack.
Need one ASAP!!
Thanks!
sparkplug holds stock in major hull companies and is trying to push out the competition… lol
It’s a lot of work but if you’re looking for a challenging project it’s not horrible.
Had one that was a SN my buddies hacked up and made molds out of. Think they made the tubbies out of soda bottles...
