the how to assemble a 701 thread shows them putting case sealer on the top and bottom cases. The Clymer manual say to put only on one side. Which do you do? Also do you put any sealer on the crank seals or on the circlip for the rear bearing? thanks!

protec says to use hi temp silicon sealer with their cheap paper gasket I am planining to use OEM do I still use RTV?

Done the search, grind down a wrench or crowfoot shallow head bolts with washers to the inside holes but are there other tricks to make it easier? I have the motor apart; is it preferable to attach the exhaust manifold before assembly? or not . . . . . . thanks!

so I finished pulling apart my ported 701 and found a pinhole from the inside to the flywheel area. :grumble: can I epoxy it on the inside? HELP!

I have a torn down 701 motor with no anode my 650 has one last time I pulled the heads do you run one?

Need to order seals, gaskets, etc so I need model to cross reference with Yamaha. Was thinking a 1995 WB-1 was a 61x/61x motor. Is that correct? Thanks!

I stopped by a friends and noticed his 550 was taking a dive on the mooring We got it to shore, rolled and drained it and got it going Just then we noticed the X-2 sinking as well :rolleyes: Got pulled it out, pumped it out and fired it up. Both skis ran good and long before the sun went...

My chamber lasts 10 rides and then cracks and spews, which really sucks. re-welded twice, any better option? epoxy? jb weld? :confused:

I blew out my crank seals on my ported 701 so I dropped in my 650 to be able to ride. 175 psi 6M6 with a protec pipe, MSD, ww cone, al waterbox runs great and works fine; no lugging or cavitation! BUT, I miss my 701!!

1990 SN SJ with 701 B pipe: This W shaped metal piece with 3 holes was in the bottom of my ski along with crank seal springs and strange rubber grommet when I pulled motor with blow seals anyone know what it is? Thanks!

Are SN and RN hood latches interchangeable? Thanks!

I checked my ski the other day and it seemed to have dropped from 180 to 172 psi, wtf? it was in garage at end of day, hadn'r run the motor maybe 110 degrees ambient checked it this morning, 72 degrees in the garage back up to 180 :party: I guess PV does equal nRT!!:naughty:
