    Yep that doesn't look like a lot but it throws your timing way off .

    Bottom decals are ordered , I went with the 34" decals versus the 26" ones, the more ugly I can cover up on this ski the better , I will be using those 4 x8" X decals on the back parts I just painted and the smaller X decal on the hood deflector as well as one of the Bombardier Gear decals that...

    Yeah that key is sheared, replace it and it will probably crank and run again.

    Wet sanded then taped and sprayed the right side, no runs but I did get a few drips as this can didn't spray as well as I had hoped , no big deal I figured it would have to be scuffed and buffed anyway it's like my Lady , she's white , this lacquer is very thin and being white it does not cover...

    Bendix replacement

    A few of us here have used the Venom starters with good results . Myself has pulled one apart and said that it looks fairly beefy inside .

    Help with primer

    I have done dozens of these , never any issues like you are having , at worse you might need to crank the ski over a few times , then there will be gas there, to me it sounds like maybe your lines are sucking air in somewhere. I don't think this is actually a primer issue that you are dealing...

    Realistically I drink maybe one day out of a week and probably no more than three or four beers then, so yeah , not an everyday thing for sure.

    Bendix replacement

    This would be my pick, but shop around you might find it cheaper than that somewhere else. The Venom brand starters are good , the Protorque starters are good but kind of pricey , avoid the elcheapo Ebay and Amazon Chinesium starters and SBT starters like the plague...

    One more tidbit of info, all the old Dyna total loss setups cannot run resistor anything, they don't have enough juice for that , I had one that came in with resistor wires, caps and plugs, it barely ran, I removed all that crap and put regular solid core wires , non resistor caps and non...

    Yeah maybe but then of course these are the guys that told me to drink six 16 oz bottles of water a day while I am on Hydrochlorothiazide , that is not really a good idea healthwise , plus you won't make it out of the bathroom all day , so I tend to make most of my own health decisions .

    Help with primer

    One more time , you have to create a low spot in the return line , in other words the return line has to dip down below the tank , fuel cannot and will not gravity feed uphill , therefore fuel will always be in the return line at that low spot . Wneh I say a low spot I mean a low spot ...

    Rainstorms all day today , I will get it wet sanded but that is about as far as I am going today , right now it's time to grill , chill and drink a few of those ice cold long neck beers that never let me down . I cooked BBQ chicken fingers , battered and deep fried blue wonder beans , green...

    Resistor plugs will also wreak absolute havoc on Seadoo electrical systems that use DC cdi , 787's 951's , ask me how I found that out sometime it's a really good story lol.

    Most were on STS hulls and the STS is the only model that had that exhaust system , the STS is a much smaller ski than the STX HULL , I have a few of both here , the STX 750 did have the big hull but a completely different exhaust system . That big pin in the STX had 83 HP and the STX...

    I had to pull two small spots again and hand sanded them, I did a quick tape off with 2" masking tape and hit it with Rustoleum filler primer , follow the directions on the can, several coats waiting a few minutes in between for them to dry, do not go crazy with this stuff and spray it on too...

    I am on about the third coat of Bondo, pull , let dry sand , repeat , I may have to pull it one last time then on to primer . The thing is I can pull Bondo , sand it and repeat about four times , then prime it and paint it before the epoxy would even harden , using a epoxy this job would take...

    If you know what you are doing and you don't F around , you can get it ground down ! Ground down, wiped down, bondo applied, actually it's Evercoat lightweight filler , I don't use Bondo , this can is at the end of it's life and needs to go , this is a good place for it to go so there it is...

    Ok it's back on the ground , I took some pics to show you the damage on the top , it's too bad to just cover up with vinyl , my thinking is at the least the chips need to be filled and smoothed out before I can even cover it with vinyl . I am not sure where to go here just yet but I think the...

    Are you sure the stator in this thing is good, they can cause running issues that many people have mis- diagnosed as carb issues , the debacle with the 44 SBN tends to point me in that general direction , it should have run just fine with the 44 carb . I would double check the reeds and the...
