    I have never had that issue with a ski but twice I have had a boat with a clogged fuel filter act the same way. For $6 and 5 minutes work I would replace that fuel filter. Post 3 more times and then send @JetManiac a pm and get a new filter and check out his other stuff. He is a great guy to...

    Freestyle One less Couch in the World

    This just happened last month to a Chicago morning radio show host. My son's babysitter actually told me about it last night when she saw me attempting to wire my total loss and asked what I was doing. http://wgntv.com/2016/06/14/chicago-radio-show-personality-survives-waverunner-explosion/...

    Custom/Hybrid Codys 2016 Rickter Edge Build

    I was just wondering what hardware you used to connect the motor mounts? I'm about to build my edge. I have never used the Rickter style rails and was hoping you could save me a few minutes or a trip back to the store for different hardware. How are you liking your ski? Thanks.

    Total loss w/ shifty mod diagram included Please Help

    Thanks so much that makes perfect sense. What are you using as a grounding post? Then I can put the grounds from the soliniod and coils on there then run to the battery and starter. Is there a limit to how many of the ground runs can go on a post? On a side note since you are a PHP guy have...

    Total loss w/ shifty mod diagram included Please Help

    Thanks for the response. I am using the MSD total loss with the oem yamaha soliniod. What is the best way to add a common ground? My thoughts on wiring the bilge into the shift module was when the lanyard is not connected the bilge would be off and less likely to drain my battery. Maybe...

    This is my first total loss system. I originally had someone setting it up for me and it fell through. I am a bit overwhelmed by this project. I think i am making it a bigger deal than it is because i have heard of so many people having issues with their systems. I am going to knock out the...

    Any tips of hooking up and unhooking cooling lines to pump fittings

    There has to be a good way to hook cooling hoses to the pipe fittings. This is probably my least fav part of any jetski wrenching. Anyone have some magical trick to help me? Once hooked up how are you securing them zip ties vs pipe clamps?

    MSD Total loss coil placement and wiring advise and pics

    They must keep updating it. I have seen people saying the manual says nothing to 3 inch to 6 inch. The new manual says 12. It really makes me think that this is a reoccurring issue. I'm going to try to have them 12 inches apart. Just not sure how I'm going to do it. I will also post there new...

    MSD Total loss coil placement and wiring advise and pics

    I am getting ready to set up my first total loss. One question I have is about coil placement. The MSD manual says that coils must be more than 12 inches from the brain. I don't think I have ever seen a setup like that. Also any tips for bullet proof wiring connections? How did you do it? Any...

    Jetmaniac like amazon for skis but more knowledgeable

    I can't say enough good things about Jetmaniac. He has the fastest shipping, one of the most knowledgeable guys I have talked to, easy to deal with, he sold me a personal bpipe during a shortage when I couldn't find one, and he warranties parts that he sells even sometimes when the manufacturer...
