    1997.5 Gsx 951 has weak spark

    My engine was rebuilt by full bore 2 years ago, he said the only white engine part left was the bottom end I believe, the jug and head were newer. I had the carbs rebuilt as well and I set the jets to the spec of the later model which richened up the PTO carb I believe by about 1/4 of a turn...

    Any idea how to resistance test across the coil, or the ohms range?

    Hi guys, I hope this is in the right sub forum. Last fall on the last planned ride of the season, my seadoo unexpectedly lost all power at full throttle while at top speed. It did not start running rough, it just completely cut all power and I almost flew off the ski :-) Turns out I lost...

    Thanks, I scored the ski for a great price knowing it needed a rebuild. I Hope it clears up and I think you are right. I will be using premix added for probably another 10 gallons and then the fun begins

    So I took the trunk out today and filled the oil all the way up to the top of the tank so I can see the oil consumption better. Iput another 5 gallons of premix in the gas tank as well. I reset the low and high speed adjusters as they were off. The high speeds were set at 1 turn out and the...

    Quick question, since pictures don't seem to do justice. are the small town handle adjusters on the bottom of the carbs the low speed adjusters? and the bronze flat head screws on the top, the high speed adjusters?

    Matt Braley that was the answer. I pulled the plugs off the carbs and it fired right up. I just put her first 1.2 Hrs on the rebuild. Things I noticed on the breaking in. It has 1 or 2 groggy dead spots. The main one is around 3300-3800 rpm. A little more throttle and it jumps right to about...

    the front bronze nipple is connected to the rave valve solenoid. the rear bronze nipple is connected straight up to the carburetor next to the fuel in and out ports. the tiny little lines with the filter that connects from carb 1 to carb 2 are all done correctly. the only other nipple on the mag...

    Thank you very much. Do you have any clue where the idle speed adjustment is located?
