    92 SeaDoo XP; How hard to remove impeller

    I got the manual for it. As far as I can tell, it tells me to remove the venturi, disconnect the impeller shaft from the PTO flywheel extracting it from the ski completely, and pull the impeller off from the shaft end. Does that process sound right to remove the impeller? Is that process very...

    What happened to the time? It jumped forward 2 or 3 minutes.

    At work, I log onto this site and monitor all the new posts as they're added, more-less. For as long as I've been doing it, your server's time has stayed the same as my computer's time which is the same as the wall clock's time which is set by WWVB in Colorado. Anyways, about 2:30 local time...

    How hot does it get in the engine compartment?

    Hot enough to melt foam? I was thinking about putting some closed cell foam on the hood so it doesn't sink if, heaven forbid, the hood ever were to come off. Would the compartment get hot enough to melt the foam and turn it into a gooey mess on the bottom?

    My wife is going to be doing her dolphin thing for 8 hours (March 31, 2008), and I was thinking about riding my ski during that time. I was thinking about mission bay since it was right by seaworld. How's the riding there? I read it's popular with the locals... Is it too popular? :friday...

    How hard is it to ride surf?

    I've ridden a ski for 2 months and a stand-up for 4 days, only on the lake. I wasn't kneeling at all on the 3rd day of riding... I got the turning down and was working on turning it sharp last time out. I've only fallen off once, but lost my footing about 4 times. How hard is it to ride...

    How do you clean a starter?

    Got a goki starter for my js550 that's rather gunky inside. I pulled it apart and wasn't surprised that it wasn't moving as everything inside is covered in mud. How do you clean those things? I was going to use carb cleaner...

    What's a pole limiter?

    Getting setup for surf riding. Noticed the post Midlake did and I'm very glad he did. 2 recommendations were given to him on this site that were not given to me on the other site. Pole limiter and hood straps. Shouldn't the normal hood strap suffice? If not, what do you do? Take a...

    Sea-Doo 587 motor/starter question

    I got a 1992 SD xp with a westcoast exhaust system installed. I need to pull the starter and make sure it doesn't have water in it from a recent submersion. Like the JS550, you have to pull the exhaust to easily get to the starter, huh? Is there any other way of getting to it...

    I'm trying to find out what the riding in San Fran is like during April. Is it as cold as it looks like it'd be? See much wildlife? Big surf on average? I came across something interesting while trying to find out...

    550 Starter Problems

    '87 JS550 Pull the spark plugs... The engine turns by hand. Push the start button, and it acts like the battery is dead. The starter will just barely engage, and will not turn over even a slight bit. Short the starter directly to the battery and she'll turn over fast. It still might be the...

    I'm planning a trip to CA for the beginning of 2008. I want to visit in the off-season while everyone's still in school and everything there isn't a mad rush with crowds that stretch as far as the eye can see. I plan on going no further north then San Francisco. We're going there to see...
