    What could cause case sealant failure on almost new PV motor?

    Personally I have used Yamabond 4, Hondabond, Threebond 1211 and Permatex Motoseal, I have never had issues with any of those. I did have a lot of issues with Locktite 518 and I would never use that to seal cases even though Seadoo said use it, once I started using threebond 1211 a lot of our...

    sx550 runs out of water does once in water and no power

    Jetted wrong, exhaust leak or bad reeds will all give these symptoms , did you check for the proper jetting or just bolt the carb on and hope for the best ? Regrettably there hasn't been much of any posted info about running a 46 on that engine, on a 44 I would say 100-110 pilot. 130-140 main...

    New hull

    Really this is why I do one off whacky builds, I want things like I want them, if you can't have what you want then what's the point of it all, I don't surf ride, I don't care about backflips and barrel rolls, my concerns are reliability and being easy to repair if something breaks , it...

    How I set my ski on fire and then sunk it.

    I will agree that you should not have gone directly from the battery to the ebox, Kawasaki on pretty much every 400-440 and 550 ever made had a small ground wire that went from the ebox to an intake bolt. Yes if the negative ground cable is toast it will try and ground somewhere else .

    How I set my ski on fire and then sunk it.

    There is nothing wrong with adding another ground wire, what you encountered was a short to ground and it would have taken out the ground wire regardless of where it was located at, if it just had the stock ground wire on the stator it would have melted that wire and all the other stator wires...

    Kawasaki X2 Yamaha 701 + 144 pump conversion

    The 300SX was parked until last year, I have been steadily working on it to get it finished the X2 had a bunch of parts stolen and I had to do a lot of backtracking, I also have several motorcycle projects I am working on, that being said I fail to see what any of that has to do with my...

    Kawasaki X2 Yamaha 701 + 144 pump conversion

    So I have to ask this , is it really worth it for a 4mm bigger pump with a lot more parts to fail, the Yamaha has a lot of parts to line up, go out ect, the Kawi setup is damn near bulletproof as long as you have a good through hull bearing. This is a serious question I really would like to know.
