Good morning everyone..... So a little background on this machine..I picked up a 96 xp with the 787 motor and when i got it it had a new motor from sbt but it had been SEVERLY neglected on every aspect.. I changed all the fuel lines...changed the fuel filter and oil filter, drained oil and changed the small injection lines, added XPS fully synthetic, cleaned the RAVES , compression is 148 in both, and i sent the carbs out to DR. honda who went through them for me, I also checke the water regulator and the clamp had fallen off so i reinstalled it and now it dosent leak anymore......NOW for the problem...The ski runs great but im having several issues still..1) If i idle around such as out of a no wake zone and punch the throttle it will hesitate for a moment then go...2) but if i idle at say 1/4 throttle then punch it the hesitation is gone..so i have narrowed it down to being only from idloe to WOT...I also think that im not getting my full rpm's out of this ski...my GSX can beat it in a straight line race ..NOT by much but it will....3) also if i shut the ski off for say a min or 2 then go to start it i have to hold the throttle wide open and crank it for maybe 5 sec before it will start...any insite into this problem would be helpful..thanks everyone
