    jet pump rebuild question

    I cant find a definite answer on this. I got the shaft and rear bearing out with no issues (lightly tapped on the end of the shaft)... The forward most bearing doesn't want to budge in the press, before I put too much pressure on it, can someone confirm which direction I need to be pushing on it...

    re-condition prop or toss and start over?

    They can actually rebuild missing surface area as advertised ? I took a couple good knicks out of the leading edge of it, in an act of desperation I ground it down a bit to try to flatten it out and eliminate the cavitation issues, but to no avail, it hooked up, but it about rattled the ski...

    Super Jet Round nose front cover / cowl attachment question

    Looking for how the plastic front end piece attaches to the ski, it slides in under the front, and then I remember a screw goes on each side in the back, but wasn't there some kind of washer/spacer/compression something that went in there so as to not mash the plastic with the woodscrew ? Pics...

    650/X-2 650 overheating, can't figure it out

    Cannot for the life of me figure out a 650sx, it runs good for 15 - 20 minutes then gets hot and only idles (I presume fuel is boiling). Get back to the ramp and let her cool and all is good again. Engine has good compression and did a leak down test on it, it held a vacuum for well over and hr...

    Super Jet paint templates?

    Years ago I remember seeing somewhere online that one could purchase vinyl templates, stick them on the ski and paint around them.... whoever was making them had several different patterns to choose from. Does anyone have any info on these or know where to get them? Time for a paint job.

    Super Jet prop work?

    Is there someone out there that does work on props and pump housings/vains to bring them back to workable condition? I mangled my Scat-trac being stupid at the ramp and sent a few nice sized rocks through the pump. If not, where can I pick up a prop affordably? This was a 9-17 and seemed to...
