    What are you guys using to cut the ride plate. Was thinking a dremel, but it'll take a heck of a long time to cut. Maybe a angle grinder?

    drive shaft slipping in midshaft

    Anyone have an idea how to diagnose if the driveshaft is slipping inside the midshaft? My pump's been through hell in the last month. Lots of torque, heat, ice, oils and finally had to cut a prop off to put new one on. From a visual inspection the splines looked o.k. when I reinstalled it. I...

    unable to meet coupler tolerances

    I'm installing my engine yesterday and was unable to meet the front to back tolerance limit (2-4mm) for the midshaft/coupler on my SJ. The side to side tolerances were o.k. with shims, but I'm unable to get the engine coupler and midshaft coupler any closer than about 5-5.5 mm. My Climer's...

    This f**king impeller that's on my pump is so f**king stuck that it broke my f**king bench vise!!!!!! I went to re-tighten my vise after the spline holder popped loose when I cranked on it with the cheater and one of the arms of my vise broke right off. Way to go Kobalt. I've heated it...

    hull reinforcing templates

    I was about to put these in trash and thought there may be someone that could use these and save a step. I've used the side template twice, once on my SN and now again on my RN. It will cover from hood lip to engine bay floor and from back of engine bay to the front curve in the nose. It'll...

    Anyone have pics of their installed scupper tubes from the inside of the engine bulk head. Do you guys cut it close to flush with the bulkhead or are you leaving a 1/2" lip or so? I've got a hull with a previous scupper already cut in bulkhead and aft section. I'm thinking of installing a...

    it's not even an "apple turn-over"

    Been doing a little thread searching, but have come up empty so far. Got a ski that ran fine until I jumped one wake and the ski died like a light switch was flipped. Ski had started and stopped without problem several times right before. When trying to start there's is absolutely nothing...

    stripped hull engine mount recess

    What's the best way around a stripped hull recess for the engine mounts? I've got one (effin') recess that's stripped...the other are perfect. I can still feel very slight grooves for the threads that are left in the recess. Was thinking of trying to go up a size in bolt with same thread...

    low compression

    What performance changes occur when you have low compression? I had 120-125 on a stock ski. Ski started easily and ran well. The engine seemed to pull fine and I couldn't detect any decreased performance with the low compression. I'll be looking for the culprit soon.
