I pulled my plugs the other day and noticed that the rear plug was a caramel colour while the front plug was very dark. I haven't done any plug chops, the readings are just from normal riding (I have brought it up to wot for a few bursts lately, whereas I usually don't). Shouldn't the plugs...

According to my charger, my battery (deka etx12) drops to 75% from a full 100% charge in the span of 48 hrs. After reaching 75% it seems to lose very little charge (it ended up at 65% after being out of my ski for a good 7.5 months). The initial drop to 75% doesn't seem normal, is it an...

I've never bought/installed a trailer hitch before, and am unsure which class to go with. Does anyone use a class 1 hitch to tow their Sjet, X-4 hull seadoo, or blaster? Should I go with a class 2 instead? Christian

What should be used to reseal the pump after its been taken apart? A previous thread said Yamabond, but didnt specify which one. I have Yamabond 4 currently, should I be looking for something else?

I noticed that my crank was making a "clacking" noise when I rotated it manually (with pistons off, etc...) I pulled it and the crank seal (flywheel side) is shredded/melted and the bearing seems to be missing a large number of balls. This is the first time that I've pulled one, so im not sure...
