It might be because of the cables, assuming you mean jumper cables and not battery cables with terminals that are bolted onto the ski. The contact area of the clamps may not be able to pass enough power, especially with steel clamps which are common. Also, many jumper cables are deceptively...

What are you using to apply power to the starter?

Something obviously went wrong since the engine was seized, whatever that was could be causing the no-crank problem. What killed the first battery, and did you get it tested to know that it was truly dead, or assumed it was dead because it wouldn't crank?

The kit comes with many extra parts to fit multiple applications.

I don't recognize that object. I was in the tank of my 2007 Challenger and it definitely didn't have anything like that in there. I'm pretty sure the pump can only go together the right way. From recollection, I think the pump outlet fits onto a tube which allows it to slide as you press the...

Amazon.com From reading the first few 5 star reviews it appears that this might be your culprit. At a glance it appears to fit all 4-tec motors, but I didn't pay close attention so make sure it's right for yours.

I just looked at the idle air bypass valve for these and it looks just like one used on a car that I found particularly troublesome. The upside is that they're fairly cheap. Maybe pull the connector off just to make sure there's no corrosion, probably not the problem, but should be an easy check.

I doubt it's the idle air control, but to test you could have a helper hold it at the engine, or put something on the throttle stop screw to hold the throttle open a bit.

If it's making the full power RPM that it's supposed to, it's very unlikely that it's running lean since you'd have a power loss. I don't know what the expected full throttle RPM of that ski is, but you should be able to find it. Unless your previous ski had the same motor, you can't expect...

The tail lights on the factory Karavan trailer for my '07 180 Challenger are an odd size. After a bunch of searching I found something that fits great. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C525CLLL?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details All the other ones I was looking at were too big to fit within...

After a bit more reading, it appears that this might be an SE. It has the depth finder and radio remote which according to some people means that it's an SE.

Located in 91745. The original owner bought it and then ran into financial trouble and filed bankruptcy. Normally the bank would repossess it, but for some reason they didn't and it just sat in storage this whole time. After he died I bought it from his daughter. I got the lien releases from...

I've had troubles with the lanyard, and it's a somewhat common problem, that installing it sometimes doesn't 'connect' or energize the system. On a few occasions I had to pull it and put it back on to make it work. But if you've tried several times without success, something's wrong. #1...

Yup, it just holds it down against the bottom of the tank. It can take a few seconds of cranking to purge the air from the line/injectors before it'll fire up. When you insert the lanyard the pump should run for 1-2 seconds. If it doesn't then something's wrong. When you hit the start button...

Even if the throttle cable has a problem, the throttle body can only close to the normal idle position so it's definitely not that. My first guess is that the coolant temperature sensor isn't working right and making the ECU think that the motor is cold when it's actually at full temp. Just a...

The impeller damage isn't enough to cause that big of a loss. There is the possibility that a bag or something was blocking the pump and it fell off after you pulled it out of the water.

A clogged fuel filter will definitely cause low power and roughness, and I don't think it would throw a code for it. If the fuel is from last year that could also be the problem. Revving in neutral in the water is going to be about the same as being forward or reverse, the pump is always under...

I got my answer from DMV, the "US-" isn't included. Tomorrow she'll be floated off the trailer for the first time ever. It's strange to have to do a break-in on a 16 year old boat.

My boat's HIN plate starts with US-CEC. Is the US- supposed to be printed on the title and registration, or do they omit that and start with CEC? I got it with no title and it's out of the DMV system so I have to do some paperwork to re-instate it and want to make sure I input the right stuff.

It had a ton of dust/sand in it, and a cutting disc for an angle grinder (WTF?)..now it's clean as new. I'm bummed that I didn't think to take a photo of it. In the days leading up to get it my worst fear was that it was parked with the drain plugs in, I convinced myself that nobody would do...
