I need to redo these on a new dock, but have lost my instructions. Does anyone have some instructions that I can get a copy of? Thanks.

Hi, I am the one that messed up my carb thread. You said you had some bodies. This is the carb that has the fuel pump on it. Its for a 1995 Seadoo GTX. How much would you charge me? Thanks.

I am not sure I got the whole screw out. I thought so based on the depth of the original screw. I can put everything in without the retaining ring and it works but obviously it doesn't pop because the seat starts leaking. Any idea what the epoxy product is called?

I believe that may be the problem, however, I can't use an original Mikuni screw because after the screw broke halfway into the hole, I had to drill it out and I ruined the threads. I still have the original screw because my Kit had a new screw that came with it. It must have been junk tho to...

yes when pressure is on it. With no pressure it sits fine.

The oring on the seat?

I agree. That is why I don't know how to proceed.

yes but when i make sure its in the hole it wont pop. it just kinda starts losing pressure but no pop like the other carb.

That's with the screw not tight. But if I screw it tight, it will not pop but doesn't stick up. Needle and seat are new and genuine Mikuni. Something has to be radically wrong.

It doesnt look bent

Ok, so I looked at it really close and the needle seat was coming up a little. So I unscrew the bracket and looked it all over and it looked OK. I screwed it back down and was using very little pressure but the screw busted inside. I drilled it out and cut new threads (4x.70). Now seat screwed...

It did come with new seats and needles.

Yes I am spraying WD-40

I bought a genuine Mikuni rebuild kit. On one of the carbs, the pop off doesn't really "pop" like the other. It just starts losing pressure around 24PSI. The other carb does pop (24PSI), but its doesn't hold the 10 pounds. Its a slow leak and takes about 5 minutes but it goes to 0. Is it ok...

I haven't completed my top end build because I still have questions. 1) My head had a lot of pitting, do I need to replace it? 2) Everyone is saying the crank is probably bad as well. I didn't pull my engine because I have no garage. I am doing the top end in ski. I read here where I might...
