HD, do you recall what pitch 144 prop you have in that ski?

Since the dust has settled years ago, I found that the "B" pipe is good for a stock motor mod. The minute you start going bigger, use the PFP. The big problem with the PFP is that it isn't designed to fit with all the stock trimmings, 4.8 fuel thank, battery tray, ect. 97 SJ sums it up with...

I know this is a ancient thread, but how many of you are running the PFP on small bore motors? (701 and up). Or is every one still on the "B" pipe...

Looks like a traditional rear crank seal leak seizure. Pressure testing the crankcase (& looking for leaks) would be a good idea when you have a piston looking like this. Also running out of fuel like Kevbo mentioned is something to keep an eye on. Take a look at those 2 little basket filters...

By now, most of the X-2 nozzles out there are pretty well shot out. This thread is a general what to do to get things tightened up again. Some of the sizing will be custom for your own "degree of current wear". Basically, you first need to clean up the 2 big holes on the nozzle, making them...

Take a look at this build thread. It covers a lot about bonding to the hull & making attach points. There's a lot of details explained. & this hull is also for sale. https://www.x-h2o.com/threads/phantom-resurrection.203319/

Bad reeds normally give a false rich condition. If everything else was good, the new reeds should clean & crispen things up. Good luck Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Coming directly from ATP's site, here's his sales pitch. December : ATP Freestyle Carb. Introducing the ATP Freestyle Carb specifically designed and manufactured with Freestylers in mind. With a unique annular discharge system utilising a 44mm inner Ventura and a 48mm throttle valve with...

Interesting read on this subject here from Harry Klem... https://groupk.com/index.php/rear-cylinder-piston-seizures/

Did it ever run good? Is the motor all stock, no mods like head & pipe??

Ok, how does it run?? I've seen most filters operate perfectly with partial fuel in them. Once the system reaches it's equilibrium (a balance of fuel and air under pressure) it just works. The aftermarket look alike stock filters have a filter media inside, (oem has a plastic screen) which clogs...

What's the issue?

For sale-SS865 needing sleeve work. I don't have the facilities or time for this project. Clean cylinder without any stripped/goofy threads or inserts. Never been cracked/welded on. Both power valves operate butter smooth. The included domes that go with this are machined for "pump gas" and have...

Looks good. The 5200 is always messy and smeary unless you cover it up. My "I'm going to temporally fix this hood tube issue" is still looking that way & holding up. I used a hot glue gun & it looks messy too, but works. The stock FX-1 from the factory comes with the driest operating hood...

Most of these parts are from Mcmaster-Carr. The rest of the stuff was pieces I had lying around. This pump steering/trim section is only 1/2 of the system. The upper handlepole is the other 1/2. I use a 2005, long throw Superjet cable. I'll try to break down some of these pieces so it'll make...

Hang in there! Had my knee "fixed" on Thursday too (+day #4). I've had a torn meniscus that has been bothering me for years. The pain sux but I've been through worse. Gotta get better to ski by the time the water warms up a bit. I'll be checkin in on ya...

I use 2-1/2" shop vac hose from home depot. Plenty of airflow for a 900

JK, there might be a couple of things adding up to create this issue. Besides the cases, the crank should be checked in V blocks to make sure it's running true. If things get a little twisted, there will be all kinds of forces working against the bearings. The front and rear bearings (outer...

Here's a good example of galvanic corrosion on a Skat Trak mag pump. The stainless insert is still like new, but the OEM housing dissolves away. This is round #2 for this pump. I fresh water wash my ski every time and spray it down with Dupont teflon silicone spray. AND added a strip of...

Jp... After all this time the best all around ride plate falls back to the stocker. It's good in the surf and riding WFO across the bay. The problem with them is that they are made from thin lightweight aluminum that starts to degrade (electrolysis) after salt water use. They form cracks that...
