My other ski is a 96 gtx. I just got it running with a known running 787..original engine ate a piston so i pulled the engine out of my xp. Go to the lake it runs for a minute then dies like it was pulling air. I replaced the fuel lines (it didn’t have the old gray lines), the fuel filter, o ring, and the fuel selector. Both carbs were rebuilt two years ago with genuine mikuni kits and I rechecked popoff before installing the engine. It was within specs but on the lower end. I go to run it and it took off planes out 6k rpm for about 20 seconds then it slowed down, came off plane and then quit. The starter at this point would only spin and not engage the flywheel so crud, done for the day. Do these plugs help identify the why? You guys have such a wealth of knowledge it is amazing. Thank you!
