I've read several posts about temp of pisser water. I've been running my ski for a couple of weeks now (since a rebuild). Performance is great, but I'm concerned with the pisser water temp. Last night when I put it up, after about a 1/2 hour ride, the pisser water was steaming! I've got a 4mm restrictor on the exit. Riding in GA. Water temp is mid 70's. So I'll pull the restrictor. The plumbing from the head to pipe has a mild crimp from the angle I ran it, but there's good flow coming from pisser?? Any ideas or concerns? Got a TL set w/30* advance, ADA 35cc head, limited Bpipe (top open 3/4 turn w/ mid and bottom closed. Lemme know.

If you can put your hand in the water while the ski is running for a couple seconds, you are fine man. Even a little hotter than that would be fine. You have to remember, the smoke clearing out of your exhaust will also be coming out of the pisser for a while after it's been turned off. Even the warm water in there evaporating out is going to look like a little bit of something.

richen it up a 1/4 turn to battle the steam. ( carb )
and maybe a 1/4 turn out on the mid setting on the pipe

I think this thread is retarded. Nobody here even knows that he has a problem yet are suggesting crap for him to change.

carb adjustment for the reason that he may be running a little lean. causing the water to steam from the extra cylinder heat

is the pisser flowing constant or is it sputtering? if it is sputtering and extra steamy and made your ski sound a little different you could have a head leak. these are the symptoms i had a few weeks back when i blew an o-ring in the head. did not notice any power decrease but i am sure there was with burning water and all.

He has a restrictor on the cooling line. I told him to take it out. Pablo and his thread are retarded. That ski hits like a mutha f'er, though.

If your ski is running too hot and you have a restrictor I would say remove the restrictor .
Adjusting your carbs would not make much of a difference on motor temp .Advice should be taken lightly around here .:shrug:
