nice!

normally, you would just check the caps without the plugs in them. but, if you have continuity with the plugs in, there will be continuity with the plugs out. just curious, when you checked the plugs, were the plugs laying on the head and where exactly did you test ON the plugs? i would...

yeah! it works for me! :biggrin:

i prefer the weight and handling of a 550 hull over a 650 hull. squirrelly is good. just MHO

:haha: close! its more like "charlie always says exactly what everyone else is thinking". ive never dealt with riva other than as a walk-in customer, so i dont know how there 1-800 department is about transactions. i do know that bryan drucker has ALWAYS gone out of his way to make...

oh yeah... no jbweld. all that will do is cover the crack. it wont keep the crack from continuing like a weld would.

i forgot to mention, in my little theory, that the engine was overheating where there wasnt any water. did it crack while flushing or while riding? definately a girdle issue. i dont think itd be that hard to fix. install a girdle bolt first. then weld it across. make sure to do the weld in...

butti, you gap you b8's at .020??? isnt the recommended gap, .028 - .032 ? fl cracker, do you know what your friend has his iridiums gapped at?

kick ASS!

hello, suspicious posters.

could definately be a combination of no girdle bolt and your method of flushing. it looks like the way youre flushing, with that tiny line, doesnt provide enough pressure to keep the cooling jacket filled. it would seem that the water would go in through the head (maybe some coming out the other...

am i the only one who has never had a spring pop out of a super bn simply by removing the fuel metering side???

but which is more fun?:biggthumpup:

well, MY ski runs fine with b8es plugs. does the carb need to be retuned for iridium plugs? ???

a bad msd enhancer will not make one plug fire and the other one not fire. its one coil that fires at the same time. the actuall ohm reading is not important at this time. what youre looking for is continuity between the spark plug boots. if there is water in your tank, you could be shooting...

the worx intakes are excellent.

DO NOT try to crank w/o the flywheel cover on to hold the front of the bendix. if you must, take a spare flywheel cover and cut it up so itll still bolt to the cases, yet, let you see whats happenin in there. if the front of the bendix isnt held in place, it could snap the shaft of the starter...

youre obviously not dealing w/ the right people at riva. there are definately some slackers there that are no good to do business with. if you need parts from riva and youre not local, talk to bryan drucker. if youre local, talk to tony kwolik. tell em chahlie sent ya:cool2:

you aint shyttin!:rolleyes:

did you make sure to install the spring that puts tension against the bendix? also, is it an OEM bendix or one of those crappy brass colored ones?
