    Draining the bilge, just thinking out loud.

    Got a ton of fittings, cleaner and glue. All I need now is just some thin wall pipe (I have a ton of sch-80 but that stuff is heavy). Mr Slutty :biggthumpup: :biggthumpup:

    That was the largest one they had and it was the last one in that size. It's a 2" and it does have a rubber flapper with a plastic disc on it for rigidity.

    I went to Lowes and picked up this valve. Did I get the right one ?

    Yo, slutty. I hear what you are preaching but a picture or part number would help. I'll go to Lowes later on tonight and look into that one. I need an excuse to get out anyway plus if I'm lucky I might get blown by Ernesto :biggrin:

    Since the scupper is on order I will put it on, I'll go to Lowes after work and look at the valve Slutty suggested and might add that as well. So no takers on the trap idea ?

    I have a scupper on order and will be putting it in as soon as it arrives. I was just trying to think of an idiot proof setup and thought that the trap might be it.:biggrin:

    how exactly does the factory self bilge work?

    If you need the vacuum to empty your fuel tank quicker just add another carb.:biggthumpup: One use for a good vacuum could be keeping the electrical box dry. But the syphon might be a bit much.

    Draining the bilge, just thinking out loud.

    Because I wouldn't be able to stand the thought of having a valve that can brake that I can't get to. The scupper sounds to me like a safer alternative except for the fact that they let water in while at rest. I started thinking about a trap and was just wondering if anyone has ever done it...

    Draining the bilge, just thinking out loud.

    I understand your point but a few fittings would take up less space than a second drain pipe (for those who run dual scuppers). The tap would only have to go just past the water line when the ski is at rest so I don't think there would be an issue with water flowing out. Also, with air...

    whats a good stock square hoods price?

    I think it's great to have a second hood. You can continue to ride with the stock hood while you mod the hell out of the the spare.

    Draining the bilge, just thinking out loud.

    So here I am debating weather I should put in a one way valve or scupper. I've read through countless threads and know that the scupper leaks and the one way valve is a pain if it fails. So I was thinking, Has anyone ever tried making a trap in the 2" pipe ? I think a couple of 45* and a...

    RE-confirming that refoaming is the worst job - UPDATE post 181

    :biggthumpup: Thank you, Sir. I guess I can call today's efforts a waste and I can go back and cut the whole tray out. I like the drain plug idea, might have to look for some of those.
