    Another Seized Impeller

    I have also had luck with heating, allowing to cool, then heating again, and repeating.

    Another Seized Impeller

    I would weld something to the impeller to get ahold of it to turn. If you do it nicely you could probably even salvage the impeller. Then heat it a lot and then heat it more.

    Craigslist and Facebook Market place in real life... :D

    Good chance it was automated, somebody just collecting addresses and phone numbers with automated messages. A lot of the annoying stuff that happens on there is not even people it's bots out there trying to scam one way or another.

    PJS Viper9000 super cylinder w/total loss static timing

    If msd static timing works the same way as static offset on a zeel, seems like you with want more like 30 or 35 maybe, so that you can run a curve with 30 or 32 degrees of advance in the low rpm range.

    Getting back into skis. Need help.

    I think I'm at about year seven or eight myself. The sortie will have people just getting started all the way to decades of experience and literal pros. If you see an obnoxious pinkish purple X2 that's me I'll have four skis there and you're welcome to try any or all of them. If you ask around...

    Need help dialing in my xs900

    You are saying that the waterbox getting hot is causing the motor to be sluggish? It would make a lot more sense if the CHAMBER getting hot was causing that, the temp of the waterbox shouldn't have much affect, only needs to be cooled to prevent damage to the couplers and hoses. How hot does...

    Getting back into skis. Need help.

    For sure go to the sortie. If my junk is all running I have a superjet, an x2 and a chicken you can try out if you want. Lots of other skis there and lots of people willing to let you take a ride.

    Pump idea

    You probably don't need anywhere near that large of a size change. Not sure what ski/nozzle you currently have but going from an 83mm nozzle to an 85mm nozzle, for example, is a .4 square inch change and that makes quite a bit of difference. An 88mm nozzle is about one square inch more area than...

    Bilge control options

    There are pretty simple water sensors that basically have exposed electrodes at low voltage and detect the slight continuity caused by the presence of water. Wouldn't be difficult to make a controller with one of those. If you search something like "Arduino water sensor" you'll find them...

    Suggestions For Repairing Damaged Brass Hull Inserts?

    You may be able to drill a couple of small holes around the perimeter of the insert, use a syringe to inject jbweld or maybe thickened epoxy into the small space around the spinning insert to keep it held in place, then drill. Carefully.

    Small hub impellers scrap?

    To offer up a (basically useless because I have never tried this at all) opinion: I'd put whatever the lowest pitch one you have in there assuming it's a fairly pedestrian 7 hundred something motor.

    Small hub impellers scrap?

    That might be an interesting question for the OG guys that have been around for a long time...is there anything an old school small hub impeller does BETTER than the big hub swirl impellers we're all accustomed to now?

    Need advise on 750 swap

    Sure but if you did all of that to a 750 it would run circles around the 650.
