Send a picture, I think your speaking of one of the Allen bead ones? I took one of my Allen bits from my socket set, it was about 3/4 inches long, cut it down to about a half inch long, put it in the Allen head bolt and use a 1/4” wrench to turn it out. You will need to lift up on the exhaust as...

Never ran into this, however when I’m doing a pop off or pressure test the fuel pump side of the carburetor is always together when I do my test. Your testing pop off with the cover off the fuel pump side?

You did decide to keep it👍, 59 mph on the water is fast, I’m thinking the fastest I’ve ever been is about 51. You keeping the matching GTX’s as well?

COMETIC Seadoo 951 Aftermarket Reed Gasket I would be tempted to go ahead and try a little bit of 518. Seen this gasket for use with aftermarket reeds, good luck

Intake gasket on 951 no more ? Maybe this might help, from the little bit I read on this thread, it looks like there is a rubber gasket on the reed cage that is your gasket, how do they look? Maybe new reed cages unless the rubber on them can be purchased separately

I’m not going to be much help sorry. Last time I worked on something with reeds was 2 years ago. It was a 2003 600 MXZ. I do remember that the reed cage looked similar to yours in here, but I can’t remember how that sealed up but it did, it wasn’t metal on metal on my snowmobile, I thought it...

Probably not much help to you but I had a similar leak on a 717 for my Challenger, leaked where the intake manifold mates to the rotary valve cover. I ordered a new o-ring, haven’t gotten it back together yet but I’m hoping the new o-ring fixed it. What do you have there? O-ring? Or a gasket...

General PDP Template So I can feel a little bit of a ridge at the top of the one cylinder, i was going to purchase this ridge reamer but wanted to check here first in case I’m wasting my money.

Just browsing, how are you making out with this?

I picked up my OSD marine order today, I was looking forward to setting the new rings I got for the PTO piston for the Port Engine, Witj the old rings the ring end gap was .054” for the rectangular ring and over .090” for the L ring. With the new rings ring end gap measured .023” for the...

A few things I can think of are 1. Take the fuel line that runs from the filter to the carb inlet, take the end of off the fuel filter and attach it directly to the top of the RES or ON fitting on the top of the fuel tank to eliminate the fuel selector valve and fuel filter from the equation. If...

Put 4 pounds of pressure into pulse fitting on carb to see if that diaphragm is good

Something like this should work? It’s 57.99

Nice work, I didn’t get an accurate measurement because I couldn’t bend any gauge past .014 without permanently creasing the gauge but my guess would be about .017 of clearance by the ports, you can see in my one picture a lip that was left around the outside of the cover. I figure it’s probably...

Not sure why this picture is here again.... I guess I will be needing a top dead Center gauge, I’ve seen people find it with a pencil in the cylinder, but it would drive me crazy worrying if I actually got it correctly at TDC, any suggestions when purchasing one? I’m thinking if possible I would...

I checked the rotary valve clearance today on the port engine, of course I couldn’t wait till I ordered some 45 degree angled feeler gauges so I bent the feeler gauges I had best I could, I wish I would have just waited to order the right feeler gauges as I worry the pressure I applied to the...

What engine is it? I would think you could do a leak down test with the engine still in, should be able to remove the tuned pipe and carburetors, put block plates on and pressurize or use old inner tube between carb and intake and between tuned pipe and exhaust manifold? On the 717 you can for...

Just wanted to verify, when checking the rotary valve to cover clearance I remove the cover #1 in the first picture, remove the oring #12, reinstall the cover #1, torque the cover down to 15 pounds and then check the clearance between the valve and cover with a 45 degree feeler gauge as in the...

Sounds to me like you have an air leak from somewhere, possiblyfrom the carburetors gaskets, crankcase outer oil seals, crankcase mating surface

Is it not a stock pressure relief valve on the top of the oil tank?
