Cheers, PM Sent.

Cheers everyone. Yeah I read up on how the EPIC curves work, so doubt it's a different/flat curve as the pink wire that needs to bridged with a switch is still rubber sheathed in the Ebox. Mind you there was a rogue earth (stripped) loose in there also, chances of it connecting seem outrageous...

Interesting, does sound plausible then. Last ride prior to rebuild the battery terminal came loose and disconnected, it still kept running but then wouldn't restart. So that and the found disconnected EPIC earth in the ebox does leave the possibility that electrical disturbance could have...

Quick reply, cheers :). I'd have to source/buy another CDI to test. Good question, I bought it second hand but unused. I didn't realize that they shipped with such a curve. I don't know what curve was in it, my understanding was came with a mild/safe curve and that's what I've been...

Hi, I've read a few threads with various issues with EPIC CDI's and wondering if my issue could be related to the EPIC. The ski runs but in the water it's gutless as and sounds wrong/flat. Annoyingly I've just done a top end build and am now stuffing around trying to nut this issue instead...

Cheers guys (yeah late reply sorry) . Interesting Dave from Impros said the 11/17 would still hook up a bucket load down low than the current prop/setup and said it would be a good balance for much better hookup and keeping a reasonable amount of top speed. From what I've read on hear he...

Pre 08 Hull 701 SJ. 710cc , 35cc Riva Head, R&D Dry Pipe, Twin Black Jacks, Ported (not sure exactly 'how', I know the ports are raised though) EPIC CDI. Existing prop is a old Solas 16-19.5(H), which as you can imagine is doughy as down low, but goes decent up top (GPS 56mph). I don't...

So some time ago I snapped the drive shaft off in the prop. As the existing prop stator housing etc is pretty flogged out and quite tall I'm looking at my options I've found a cheap 2nd stator prop and shaft but as per the title it's of less pitch. This obviously will loose some top...

Cheers for all the advice. At first I thought (From the sound) I'd shat the pump bearings or something, figured good excuse for a new impeller etc. Seeing the broken shaft I thought, 'oh well, at least it's just that'. Didn't realise the nightmare of getting it out until now! Will try some...

haha, Jetmaniac perhaps then? lol. Oh really? That doesn't sound good. So you got to the shaft by hacking through the stator behind the impeller?

So I've snapped the driveshaft in my 701. Its snapped off inside the front of the impeller. I'm wondering how to now get this out? Ideas? I'm thinking a JetManic replacement might be the go. Cheers.

So Turbo was right. Sourced a peak hold adapter and stator does 150v at crank. Tested cdi output to coin and zip. Re tested with old faulty cdi and noticed bad earth into it, fixed that and get spark. So do these Epic cdi units die often/early? It's hardly had any use and I use resistor plugs...

Stumbled on this thread but like the idea. Here in Oz me and a few mates use to frequently do tight twisty and narrow creek runs and damage certainly occurred on occasion. Hell fun though, get good at fibreglassing quickly too haha.

Yep tried that first up without luck. Hooked up old cdi, faulty but ski would start on it previously (just not rev, timing issue) still nothing. Need to find another ignition coil to test with but i recon some weird stator issue even though tests ok

Cheers. I have my old CDI which I replaced as it was faulty. It did still spark at least (from memory) so I'll try test with that at least.

After pulling the ski out after 5 months of no use. The first weekend it started and ran mint, the next, cranked but no spark. I've had such issues before on various ski's so am familiar with all the test readings for the coils etc, and everything tests up good. The charge (spark) stator was...

Update! Finally got this thing back in the water. The issue was either the stator or CDI, either way it runs and comes on power now............... well did. haha. Destroyed the front piston and dome though. Not 100% sure what happened but after a few 'longish' full power runs I noticed the...

http://www.podmx.com/ Check out the K300's, they are bascially the same as the K700's (which are the Fox ones) but cheaper due to material cost savings. I just picked up a pair for dirt biking, have yet to use but the look and feel the goods...

Picked up a brand new EPIC CDI for $300, so that will be going in, offereing at least performance improvements but eliminating the CDI also. I retested the stators while out of the ski and it seems the charge (spark) one might be a bit flakey. It's reading low at 448ohm (just out of spec), but...

Water box was cut open and the baffle tube re welded in not all that long ago, doubt it is that but will see how it flows water I guess. I managed to do some electrical tests. Coil lead resistance is in spec. Ignition coil primary (feed) is hard to measure at 0.07 to .1 Ohm's but it's...
