    Whats the value of this pjs

    What it looks like you have is a 550 or a 440 pistol port engine out of a JS. It has a pjs head, pjs exhaust manifold/head pipe, BN44 possibly, "hightorque" starter, and an aftermarket flame arrestor but it is NOT a PJS engine out of one of the PJS skis. If the engine was running with perfect...

    New rider in SFL, just picked up a 650sx and a 440

    I would get a battery and some fresh fuel just to get your base line. Make sure they work before you "detune" Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Captain Peg's Garage build!

    Good stuff mate. Just try to remember that when people say negative things"cut you slab so it doesn't crack" ( yes I know no body said that but it's the gist, myself included coming from a contractor background) it's a mixture of envy and also then wanting to see you do it right so you don't...

    Captain Peg's Garage build!

    Although there has been a fair amount of criticism there hasn't been much kudos. Good for you man! You have your life in order a lot more than most 29yo's. I'm envious as a mofo!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    650/X-2 Two different temperature readings..Which one is right?

    If you have the knowledge/ability I would just get new cases and start fresh instead of trying to fix something that broke twice already. Plus you'll have that peace of mind that it's not going to rip back out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I think you may have plumbed it wrong. Take a few pictures of your cooling setup and post it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Fuel leak from motor?

    When the skis were in the bed of my truck not too long ago we took the hoods off to trickle charge the batteries for a couple hours before going out and riding. He left the hood to his tiger craft off and the fuel tank warmed up nicely. We came back to a bit of fuel in the bottom of his ski. I...

    Fuel leak from motor?

    You're right, the needle and seat didn't seal. When the tank pressurized there was no where for the fuel to go. Fluids take the path of least resistance, in this case it was your needle and seat. Once that door was open the fuel leaked into the intake, then into the bottom end, when you finally...

    Super Jet '96 SJ700 Porpoising

    Depending on the style of trim I'll buy it from you and send you everything you'd need to make it like it was from the factory. If you're interested in getting rid of it since it doesn't get used. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Help! Water lines - More ports than hose OEM

    I would look for a stock diagram and work off of that. 3/8 from Home Depot is what I use. Stainless steel hose clamps too. And don't worry about being new! Just make sure you ask questions if you're unsure especially when it comes to cooling and fuel. Two easy ways to mess things up...

    Help! Water lines - More ports than hose OEM

    The stock head has one small nipple and that goes to the exhaust like so I would plug the other small nipple on the top. Further more I wouldn't dual cool the ski if it were mine. You have a stock exhaust manifold so I don't really know how to get the second line into it. Also unless you're...

    Help! Water lines - More ports than hose OEM

    No need to look for a picture. If you know how to tap something it's really easy. It's the same for every pump anywhere. If your current pump has a single cooling exit you're going to look on the exact opposite side of the pump and drill/tap 180 degrees opposite the existing. If you want to...

    650/X-2 1989 650sx bogging when strait up and down in the water???

    You may have a little bit of water in the bottom of the ski. When you stand it up if your coupler isn't cover it can throw a bunch of water around the Bildge area and possibly drowning the engine out. It could also be a fuel related issue. Have you checked all your fuel lines? Sent from my...

    MSD total loss problem

    Try disconnecting the black connector on the S/S harness and then trying it before you pull the switch apart. If it turns over (fires up)it's the switch. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Back after 25+ years! Got a few questions . . .

    Anything longer than the stock. You can also try a scoop/top loaded style intake grate to help. The longer the plate the less proposing you're gonna get. PJS, WestCoast, OceanPro, R&D, and L&S were all great makers of good rideplates. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Back after 25+ years! Got a few questions . . .

    The bilge pump may be an automatic one. So even when power is applied the pump doesn't turn on until the float inside of the pump is raised by water. Second issue, If it were me I would turn the idle up just a little bit and see if that makes it more happy. Third, a longer ride plate would...
