Been struggling with tuning for months and months. Finally gave up and sent it to Jetmaniac & Blue.
Diagnosis= air leak. It's getting torn down & fixed.
When my stock cdi was going bad, there was a boatload of backfiring.

Sounds like a good time to get some paint dusted on those hoods Dan.

paint?

don't need no steenking paint! Just more decals!

 

[FlightPlanDan]

Good reports on the re-do of my motor. Might even make Sebby.


Gonna wait to post pics. The hull is/never was/won't be attractive. I'm not going for "pretty"

But The guy doing the motor work deserves better pics than I currently have.

 

[Idok]

i have lots of decals!


ps..dan, I have some old electronic stuff for manny..

 

[Berky]

Hope you make it down south this weekend Dan , if your ski isn't finnished you can take mine for a spin , I've got a Jetmaniac/Blue 710 motor that I think is going to be a great surf motor if it runs anything like Chris's.

decals rule. If you don't want 'em, I'll take 'em! (my only requirement is that they be stickey on at least one side)

Manny will appreciate the electronics. We're running low on toys for him cause Lisa is working so much lately, she doesn't have time for dumpster diving!

(I felt kinda funny doing a "my-ski" thread cause I've been on the x so long.....and my ski is not very impressive. what the hell!)

oops, quoted the wrong post! Meant to reply to Idoks post #6

There's a good chance that it's done right now. He's gonna water test and fine tune tommorrow.

He seems like a great guy. Knows his stuff. I look forward to meeting him. Thanx to Jetmaniac & Josh for putting us in touch!

Blue did a good job, it sure looked like it was running good last weekend Dan.

VERY pleased! BLue seems like a great guy. And knows what he's doing. And cares how it turns out.

 

[Idok]

glad to see you up and running again!

 

[FlightPlanDan]

Never was too concerned with cosmetics, but pics are posted.
Here's a few from the foothold install....

 

[Sospikey]

well heck, I'd say that's a pretty nice turf job!

Yea man! Butti did a great job.

 

[FlightPlanDan]

finally....shotened the stock pole.

 

[Sanoman]

That ski will be bad azz now,Dan!

That ski will be bad azz now,Dan!

I don't know about "bad-azz" but it needed a good once-over.
Waiting on the glass to kick right now. Gel-coated the bottom while it's upside down.
Should be back in the water next weekend.

 

[FlightPlanDan]

O.k....There's no surf. None in the near future. I'm cavatating like crazy due to a bad pump seal (my own fault) and the OD of my skat is worn pretty badly.(probably my fault too). But the motor's running like a champ!

Anyway, I'm making some changes.
85.5mm bored nozzle
9/15 hooker
Back to stock ride plate
ADA head w/ 33cc domes.
and a new pump seal...duh.

The impellor is so that I can have 2. So one can be in rehab and I can still ride.

Should all be done in the next 2 weeks. I've had no days off since July 1st and won't have any til August. A little each eve is all I can do.
