It was a puralator, im not sure but glad u pointed that out. I may just put the old filter on after I blow it out. I did dip the wires and tied them out of the way for now. On another note, I bought a new compression tester and got disturbing info. 105 psi in each cylinder. Westcoast...

overheat sensor tossed, bilge from the wires? Alright, thanks for the advice. The pipe is not too hot, my cooling system seems to work fine. I cut out the overtemp sensor and tossed it. I also replaced the fuel filter w/ one from Autozone for $2. New plugs also replaced. Can I used the...

SJ all the way. Just bought a 93 tricked for $1k.

I have not run it on a hose, (where can you get that attachment). It has two pissers on the left side that are working fine. I unscrewed the fuel filter and found good amount of water. The plugs were also very oily. I am going to add some straight 91 octane and try the new plugs this week.

I just bought a 93 SJ650. It runs great for about 10 - 15 minutes, then boggs down and sounds very rough for about 1 minute and delivers no power to the prop at any throttle setting. I just had to sit there and idle until it would get back to normal power. It did this cycle all day long and...

Damn I thought I got a good deal today. 93 SJ custom head, pipe, plate, grate for a grand. Nice find brosef, people on craigslist dont know what they are sitting on.

KS is no title. I just upgraded from the old school 550 world to a 93 SJ. It is registered til 09 so I am not going to do anything till then. Is that bad?

I have a starter relay solenoid off a 550. Will work fine on your sx. I new one will run you $120. I will sell mine guaranteed to work for $40 including shipping. I can accept paypal. mbdiesel@msn.comMatt

I went ahead and ordered a hydro. I will let everyone know if it is crap.

I am taking a good amount of water in my hull. I am pretty sure it is the rotted out seal letting it in. Has anyone found a fix that works from lowes or home depot? Any thick weather stripping should work. Any help would be appreciated.

I just bought an 84 550. The previous owner put gear oil in it. It started fine at his house, but when I got it home, the starter was dead from ingesting oil. I would advise anyone to check this before purchase to save $100. Giddy up, MB

Alright, im retarded. Thanks for stopping me before I put oil in it. Im sure that was the cause of the original starters death.

FXI, thank you very much for your time and explanation. I put the new starter in and she fired up like a champ. I cannot wait to hit the lake. When I removed the old starter, I lost quite a bit of gear oil. How much does a 550 require, I was thinking about 3/4 of a quart? Thanks again and...

Im new to the scene, obviously. I replaced the solenoid and battery. It has a charge. I am getting the pop, click when hitting the start button. Bought a new starter, can anyone offer any advice on how to replace it?? I cannot locate the thing unless it is under the engine. Any help would...
