    Blaster - help with details...

    Back last fall I traded some work and ended up with a 93 blaster as part of the deal. I don't know much about the specific mods to the ski as shortly after I picked it up the guy died unexpectedly. Sad deal. I was curious if you guys could help me out with info on what I have and any...

    modified cofman head pipe

    Would like to get a jetworks valve one of these days, but for now I am trying to stick with the next zero cost options... I was thinking about going to a 3/16". I will try that or if I can find an old plug I might give that a try. Mouth, you've always got the 'cheapest' ideas around! :)

    modified cofman head pipe

    What kind of water restriction do you guys like to run with the coffman pipe. I have the headpipe with just two nipples, one to the head, one to the stinger. I have a T to a pisser on the line to the stinger and recently put a 3/8" nylon bolt spacer in the line just before it hits the stinger...

    West Texas - Lubbock Stand Up Riders??

    Just curious if there are any West Texas riders around here? I live @ Buffalo Springs Lake and very rarely see any standups at the lake.

    Help- starting Jetting for 61x ported LPW

    Well dang it! I don't have a 122.5! I will try the 125 and see how that works. I think I may have found a place locally that keeps these jets around so on Monday if I need a 122.5 I can go pick it up. Thanks.

    Help- starting Jetting for 61x ported LPW

    With setting the idle like Matt E said I am at about .75 turns out. If I ride the ski for one minute at 1/4 throttle and punch it, I have bad hesitation. I turned out the low speed screw to 1.5 turns and this almost cleared the hesitation up. Since that helped that means I should jet up to...

    Idle/ low speed issues - why?

    What made you finally think that wires were your problem? Did you have some visible damage? Thanks.

    helicoils and timeserts?

    Went searching today for the helicoils and tools to fix my cylinder. Found everything I needed at a local auto parts store. Went through the process of repairing it and so far everything is holding good! It was a relatively simple thing to fix. I have some really nice Irwin drill bits that cut...

    helicoils and timeserts?

    So if I was to go the route of a helicoil, what would be the proper size for the cylinder head bolt holes? Also, are helicoils in that size something that usually can be picked up at a local store?

    helicoils and timeserts?

    Can helicoils or timeserts be installed with the cylinder on the engine? I have two head to cylinder threads stripped... This sucks!

    If you need to buy Jets - Legdrag.com

    Just thought I would share this... I needed to buy some jets and didn't want to pay an arm and leg for shipping two little $3 parts. I ended up ordering through www.legdrag.com and the lady was very nice. They shipped my jets USPS priority mail and I got them in two days!! Shipping was only...

    Help- starting Jetting for 61x ported LPW

    Yeah that makes sense. That's why I was thinking jetting up was probably my next step. Another question... My ski will idle all day long with no problems. But if I blip or let off the throttle quickly from holding it at higher rpms then when the rpms come down the ski will not idle (it will...

    Help- starting Jetting for 61x ported LPW

    I tried setting my idle using this method above today. I have been trying to get my ski all tuned in for a while but just haven't had much time to mess with it. My setup is very similar to orangfinger's that's why I thought I would just post this here. Mine is a home ported 61x w/o any of the...

    Towing with a Scion xB

    Mouth... My wife drives a xb. We bought it new three years ago. Haven't had any problems with the windshield "cracking" under stress. The windshield is big and pretty flat so it catches a lot of rocks and when it gets hit it will chip. If you don't get it fixed ASAP then it will crack. I am...

    Handpole Bushings

    Does anyone make handpole bushings for a sn pole. I know I had bought some a long time ago for a 550 I had. My sn pole has some play and wondered if anyone made these and haven't been able to find any. Or is there a better solution, without buying a new pole. Thanks.

    Tiny Tach

    I hope this is the appropriate place to post this... Probably about 4-5yrs ago I purchased one of the commercial type tiny tachs. Recently it quit working properly so I called the manufacturer Design Technologies www.tinytach.com to help me trouble shoot it. After doing that it still didn't...
