    Custom/Hybrid JS water box idea...

    Hey, I recently parted out a Tide Rider that used many similar parts as the wet jet line of pwc's and found this odd water box from Hollond (or sweden? I can't remember). I need a better flowing water box for my 650 conversion and thought I could put it in. My question is: how much hull...

    300/440/550 550/650 questions

    After a year of riding a stock 550, which I know have hanging on my beadroom wall, I have decided that I am doing a 550/650 over the winter with a 440 hull and just had a few questions. First is that my hull does not have sponsons and I was wondering if I could use these...

    300/440/550 JS440 impeller removal?!

    Ok so here's the deal: My friend gave me a sweet 440 hull to make a 650 conversion ski; however, I must remove the aftermarket ss impeller. It has a 440 driveshaft on it so it DOES need the special 400/440 tool. The problem is that I cant find one anywhere! found a picture of one i a...

    3 new racers

    Hi, two friends and I started really getting into jet skiing this year. I have a stock 1985 js550 with a westcoast intake grate and ride plate. One of my friends has the exact same, and my last friend has an older ('89?) 550/650 conversion ski. Long story short is that we want to try some...

    Other 550 Fiberglass prject.

    I have a js550 that I want to flat deck. While I'm at it I would like to lower my hood, shave the air intake on the hood, and do something with the hand pole (make it thinner or shorten it). I had also read about how chopping 2" to 3" off the back end of a super jet helps it's handling and was...

    300/440/550 Please tell me my e-box isn't fried!

    Ok I was out practicing subs and after killing it (I fell off) it took FOREVER to start, one cylinder would start firstbut only run around idle speed, and only with the throttle pinned. The second cylinder would start if after about a minute I let off the throttle to about 25%. So I started...

    300/440/550 Invisible weeds. Umm... what?

    Ok so I have this weird problem. My ski runs perfectly engine wise; but, it runs exactly like it is full of weeds. Some back story: A friend and I were riding (pretty hard) and we decided to switch skis. After a little while some water got in my tank and we came back and fixed it. When we...

    300/440/550 Uh-Oh I need help. BIG time.

    Ok well I posted in the general forum awhile ago about my 550's starting problem. Well I cleaned the carb (probably the first owner to do so, it was FULL of crap); however, I believed the problem is my fuel pump. Today I checked the crankcase pressure, (correct me if I'm wrong but it appears...

    300/440/550 550 takes FOREVER to start.

    I'm new to Jet Skis but not two strokes. Having said that: I know the first cold start is the hardest but my ski takes 30+ seconds every time it starts, unless I kill it and start it back up within 5(ish) seconds. So my thought is that when it dies, all the fuel that should be in the line...
