I've searched the forum a few days without luck, so I am going to post a quick question.
SKI, runs fine and idles great. New spark plugs and battery.
The issue is that the ski starts GREAT out of the water. It also starts RIGHT AWAY in the water when the seat cover is off. As soon as the cover is back on it takes 20plus cranks to get her going (this sucks if you fall off ha) and I've also had the battery DIE on my mid lake and had a nice tow adventure back ashore.
ANY help is much appreaciated.
Also, I bought these skis ( I have 96 sp and 96 spx) about a month and a half ago for a pretty sweet deal. I have read a lot of your posts before writing this as some of you have given me great info (compression tests, terrible gray lines (which have been changed by older owner), carb cleaning, bad rectifier ect....
I appreciate any feedback.
Thanks, Justin
