    760 carb question

    thats like a machine screw. Drill out the head of the screw and it will pop off, then you can remove the body and have access to the screw stud. 68.5 is lean, heck #70 is stock. You have a b-pipe?

    Bent Spark Plug Tops

    plug tips are not bent dramatically, just bent a little. I think you have a severe lean condition on the low circuit. What about thermal expansion? Makes sense that a lean running plug does not have carbon build up, therefore more heat transfer to the tip of the plug. Routs1, i am with you, i...

    Bent Spark Plug Tops

    that is logical, but i am with the OP; i don't think that contact with something was the root cause. I am ocd with my stuff, my friends make fun of me for it. I no longer experience bent tips...ever, and my stuff is tuned per builder specs now. Still no answer i know, but more info on the...

    Bent Spark Plug Tops

    hmmm....not sure that my hood liner is anywhere close to the plug tops. b-pipe head pipe towers the plugs as well i think. could current jumping a bad contact in the boot cause this?

    Bent Spark Plug Tops

    i have seen this happen on my old 701 motor. I am not sure what causes the bent tips. It would not happen all the time, but every once in a while I would see that the tip bent...somehow. I also noticed when the tips were bent that they also unscrewed partially as well. I run the solid tips...

    Rear tow loop with trim

    are you sure you need to cut the rear that much? Why not just trim the bond line llip down and call it good?

    Super Jet Dual 38 fuel delivery problem?

    i have had the same issues with mine for years, even with my old 701 motor which ran great for years and is still going. I am on to a BB now, but seems the front cylinder always wants to run lean still. I have not figured out how to correct it, does not hesitate (lean bog) at all and seems to...

    -2 worth it?

    takes more time to do pink foam vs pour foam, but it is the only way to go. It is impossible to seal it up 100%... water will get in. Use pink foam and put some drains in.

    -2 worth it?

    I split the difference between full slant/angle cut and straight up...i was undecided as well and splitting the difference looked good. I cut the rear and formed foam from the inside of the hull to build a base layer on the outside, then built up the thickness from the inside.

    -2 worth it?

    i went about -3 on my stupidjet, i think it is perfect. I had -2 and decided to go more. It does make a big difference getting the nose to pop up faster and spins quicker. -4 was to much I thought since it exposed the nozzle a little to much IMO for jumping waves (you can prevent this some...

    My moms tigershark driveshaft has a huge vibration. Help!!

    align engine coupler to intermediate coupler without the damper in. The two couplers need to be flush with each other, this is done by shimming the engine. Were the spines ok on the driveshaft? ...make sure the driveshaft is centered to the intermediate shaft. There are youtube videos on how...
