A lot of guys are running Yamaha GP-XL 1200 carbs with an adaptor from R haas, I believe those are off the NPV 135 hp engines https://www.rhaasproducts.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=1100%2DGp1200

I was where you are at back in 1999, I was promised the world but when I got there my world got a lot smaller as did my paycheck, I was hired to do only watercraft and ATVs that worked ok for a while then they decided to pay me on commission, I should have seen the writing on the wall, the next...

I have been there raising two kids by myself, too much customer work, no playtime, but I never sold all my stuff, I always kept a couple of skis to ride regardless.

Pick one or two you like the most and sell the rest.

True but for the price difference I would just replace the pressure gauge as they are fairly cheap, you can buy a liquid filled gauge for $11.95 probably cheaper than that if you shop around. I have seen regular non filled gauges as cheap as $5.00 on ZORO before., I recently bought a new liquid...

Yep the Seadoo special tool we used at the dealership was just like the one I posted. The Mikuni pump price is ridiculous for what it is . Crammit442 gave me one years ago that they use in orthotics, it was very similar to the MTN bike pump, that was the best one I have ever used .

I haven't needed to buy one in ages but mine finally bit the dust, while searching I came across a really good deal, they are listed as testers for WALBRO carbs and are basically used for chainsaw repair...

Also the 1200's use 44 carbs, the 1100's use 38's I would think there is a substantial power increase hiding in a carb-intake swap.

Well I was right you can't tell from the pic then., Joes pic is much better that the one I had anyway.

I would build something like this , that is the only pic I could find, you can't tell from the pic but it's on a hinge and the c channel part has rollers, so it extends out and breaks over, then as you winch it back on it comes back down to level...

This wasn't mentioned so I will mention it here, it really depends on what pump the hull has , 650 -750 engines don't work with 300-440 pumps, you need a 550 pump minimum and a fairly large pitch 550 impeller to run either of those engines in that hull and that's minimum , you would be much...

Don't even get me started on Chinese electrics, when a customer comes in with a starting issue on a PWC or ATV it's one of the first questions I ask now. I had a customer with electrical issues on his YFM 450, turns out he replaced the ignition switch and the starter solenoid with Chinese...

28 -36 volts is a huge difference as is 240-380 ohms, electrical stuff is precise if it's out of the acceptable range it either won't work or won't work properly.

Looking back at your first post the charge coil AC voltage needs to be around 35 VAC, I rarely rely on OHM checks and and more interested in the voltage output when diagnosing no start electrical issues.

Misalignment of the couplers does not take out rod bearings, no dice

Done, it's not a thing of beauty but it should work quite well for your purposes.

The FX cruiser I am working on now has a 1.50" OD tube and the OD of the rubber hose is 1.75" if that helps. Yes you can defiantly epoxy PVC in there if you rough it up first.

There are not that many places that make those big bore sleeves if you have the dimensions, you can probably call around and find some replacements.

I don't think you can get another one unless you can find one from a trashed or damaged hull, usually on the resin they use you can heat it up with a heat gun or small torch and get it apart, you may very well be stuck with repairing what you have so work very carefully if you try to remove it.

The only thing I know of smaller than that is a PJS pipe or a stock 650SX PIPE.
