Just bought 97XP🙂

Nice looking ski. Let us know how you like it. I have 2 with the 951 Engine. One Carb and one DI.
Will do for sure. Hoping to at least do a compression test on it tomorrow, that’s if there’s not a bees nest in it. I noticed a couple wasps around when I was purchasing it and then a few around it when I got home so I’m going to be ready to run. I noticed when I took the gas cap off it, it just about blew the cap off so I’m going to have to check the pressure relief valve. Owner said it was cutting out after riding for awhile, I bought it from the original owner. I may throw a little pre mix in it next week and take it out for 5 minutes and see what it does.
 
IMG_5011.pngIMG_5012.jpegIMG_5010.jpegBeen cleaning it up a little bit here and there. I was glad to see the spot by the stern license and off with some 1000 grit. The dirt on this would not come off with anything but sandpaper. I’m starting to see just how much I love the looks of this. If I have the time, I would like to strip everything off of it and wet sand the whole thing and put new decals on it before winter. I would love to take it out to the water but I’m worried to since the vts shaft is broken and the nozzle is just free to move up and down as it pleases. Plus it has the intermittent issue where it shuts itself off. It had the grey fuel lines, so I’m also worried to take it out before changing those and cleaning micro filters.
