    What is the deal with salesman today...

    Right, then go buy a boat. I see a runabout PWC as a utility watercraft. Like lake patrol, life guard, flood search and rescue. But if you ever go riding with others, you better buy 2 b/c unless you are skiing no one wants to be the passenger.

    What is the deal with salesman today...

    Go Speed Racer, Go Speed Racer, GO I know the hoods on most Yamaha PWC sucks, pulled the old reg. stickers off on my Blaster and the paint came off. Tried to remove the race numbers on my 2000 and paint would have come off, so I stopped. I want to get it fixed free while I can. Even though...

    Word. So it is normally open and them making contact will limit the engine RPM.

    ADA head install

    Tape them together so you know they are not used, or tape the male and cover the female so they are not somehow shorted?

    What is the deal with salesman today...

    Went to my local dealer today to find out about my hood (I will get to that later). I told the salesman that I had a 2005 SuperJet, which I have had less than 1 year, and the paint was coming off the hood. She said, so you have a jet boat. I said "no, I have a SuperJet Personal Water Craft, it...

    ADA head install

    Bone stock motor for now. Little bit at a time. Oh, before I forget... Do I just disconnect the Overheat sensor and leave the connectors empty, or do I plug them together (is it a normally open or normally closed)? Is the cooling fittings the same thread as those used on the FPP manifold?

    ADA head install

    Anything in particular I need to know about when I install the ADA head? It purchased a girddle kit so will be going that route. Instructions say no head gasket or gasket sealer... any worries about squish?

    how exactly does the factory self bilge work?

    If you lift the stock bilge, yes no water will enter unless water is at the same height as the strainer.

    how exactly does the factory self bilge work?

    No, water will not enter the hull through the stock bilge. There is a siphon break. Are you trying to research a leak in your ski? Why your bilge fills with water?

    how exactly does the factory self bilge work?

    Re-reading your first post, my first assumption is you are running dual cooling. Sometimes people remove the stock bilge to run a second cooling line, and run an electric bilge to remedy the removal. I dislike this because should your bilge pump fail w/o you knowing, you might ingest water...

    how exactly does the factory self bilge work?

    Not really, the vacuum is always there when water runs through the pump. On WOT runs, you can drain the bilge. When I believe I have water in my bilge, and because I have no electric bilge pump or scupper/one-way, I make a WOT run to drain the water. The vacuum is present when water goes...

    how exactly does the factory self bilge work?

    Since the bilge hose is connected to the exit nozzle of the pump, it creates a vacuum of sorts. Once water fills in the bilge, that vacuum empties the water.

    B-pipe cooling, routing water lines
