This one's got me baffled.
Ski runs fine (straightline) with single person, make a turn, it feels like no power there. Checked compression 130 on each cylinder, new plugs, fresh fuel.
Anyway so we're running around a bit and decide the three of us want to go for a ride. Get on the ski, won't start (cranks ok). Back to shore, two jump off, try to start it cranks a little and it fires. Go for a spin come back pick up the other two and again no start... They jump off, cranks a little and starts again...
Only thing I can fathom is that the ski is deeper in the water at the rear with the three of us on it. Am I getting to much water (backpressure) in the exhaust outlet with the three of us on it?
It's got me stumped, any help would be appreciated.
