Is this happening on the trailer or in the water? Whats your RPM reading at idle?

Yea should have done it when i changed the orings on the stainless part and swithed to the c clip. I have to fix a sticky throttle issue first. Ski was surging when i went to trailer it, i noticed the throttle wasnt snapping back, 2nd time its happened luckily both times it been at the end of...

Not leaking water but i did have cavitation. With the ampunt of play it had im figuring this is the reason for the cavitation. A visual check from the intake grate looks like the wear ring is fine.

How much movement is normal? Was out this past weekend and had a strange rattle and some cavitation. After checking things out I found I had a lot of wiggle room in the carbon seal and the boot. I was able to easily move it and even push it back a bit. I did not have any water leaking in though...

I have a simple little 2amp charger with 2 settings 6v and 12v, shuts off once the battery is charged. I left the battery hooked up in the ski tonight, i will get another reading in the morning and see whats up.

Honestly i havent had great luck with batteries, i never get more than 2 years out of them. Im terrible when it comes to maintaining them. Dont have a tender and rarely disconnect them. Just weird that the first one only lasted a week and this new one may be a dud also. Its the AGM from advanced...

Didnt get a chance to get it tested today. But i had it charging all day.Put it back in and Now its turning over with both plugs in no problem lol. I get a reading of 12.6 intially and its dropping to 10.5 while cranking. Didnt fire it up because the flame arrestor and airbox are removed. But it...

Yea gonna do that. Still want to rebuild the starter. I just dont get what could have happened on the trip from storage to my house? Was starting fine.

Well a new ground cable didn't fix the issue, still wont turn over. It is better if I just loosen the spark plugs a couple turns it will crank, and removing 1 plug it cranks fine which it wasn't doing before. The #'s now are disturbing though: Battery is at 12.3v When cranking with plugs in...

Cool thanks man

Yea, im going to try and get something locally to test. I still might rebuild the starter, its the only thing i havent redone on this thing. Mik were you the one that said the amazon kit was no good? Ebay better?

Jumping the post gets half a turn followed by a clunk. Pulled the ground wire off and when i pulled back the sleeves i think i found my problem. The ends look like hell

Got a new battery this week, after some priming engine fired and ran fine. Started it a few times this week in prep for the weekend. Today it will not turn over with the plugs in. Take them out and it turns no problem. Nothing out of the ordinary is coming out the holes when cranking, so i dont...

I do, DM me. Thanks

In your original post you said you cleaned the fuel selector switch after replacing the tempo lines. You really cant clean them because the rubber inside deteriorates and plugs itself up. Better to just replace it. Try bypassing it and see if she'll run.
