wouldn't the computer adjust for that

The rfi cylinder jugs have a smooth outside and a ribbed outside one is silver (smooth) and other is black (ribbed) I was wondering if there is any reason why I cant swap them around

I have a 2000 gtx 787 rfi that I just bought. My question is can I take a ribbed jug and put it on a motor that had a smooth jug. thanks in advance

hi. I just had this problem on my 98 gtx you have to swap the flywheel cup around they have different triggers on them and that is why you have just one cylinder firing. I had a 98 951 ski and put in a used 99 951 out of a gtx and it would not run well. was told that there is a difference in...

you are correct you need that 107 psi of fuel pressure if you are getting it from the fuel pump you need to check the air pump. I have 107 to 110 running. if I have the same issue after I change the head gasket I will check fuel pressure under load and see what I come up with.

hey wetwaterskier, have you had a chance to fix the ski yet let me know I put a fuel pressure gauge on mine and I am running between 107 and 110 which I believe is good

wetwaterskier, hi, I have taken the reeds out for inspection and found a piece of sand in one of the flappers holding it slightly open. Have no idea how that might have happened. as far as the head gasket leak I have not had a chance to take the head off yet (been a very busy season so far at...

no thoughts on what I found?? will be taking head gasket of during the week

yes I cleaned my raves and no I have not looked at my reeds to any extent yet. while working on the ski tonight this is what I have found. when I start it up and let it idle it stays at 1420 to 1460 every once in a while it will raise to 1580 to 1600 rpm and then go back to 1420. while I was...

I did the top end because the ski would not give me more than about 6200 rpm and I took a compression test 1 cylinder was about 90 lbs and the other was around 110. figured it was time for a top end rebuild only has 135 hrs. I am going to work a little on it tonight see if I can find anything...

ok had some time to work on this di problem yesterday pulled spark plug boot off one at a time and seems to run rough when pulled but keeps on running. Runs smoother when boot goes back on that seems normal. took off air box and put piece of paper in front of it to see if any gas or oil was...

I do have a can doo I can use from work. how can that determine if the air injectors are the problem? it seems like on the trailer it is not a perfect idle like it is dropping a cylinder every once in a while. never have been impressed with the can doo system I have mercruiser and Yamaha...

no codes first thing I was looking for have had the ski for 3 years no water intrusion or sinking this is something that has just happened after top end rebuild (not my first rebuild) will rev to 5000 on trailer with no problem. the black dry plugs would indicate a lean condition if I am...

ski-doo is there a test for a damaged reed or just take them apart and look at them. should it be easy to see when you take them apart.

I agree with racerxxx I have seen motor ring gap off more than that and they last and run just fine
