OK, the manual says NGK BR8ES plugs. Are these standard plugs that autozone or advance autoparts would carry? Is there a new and improved recommendation for plugs on this model now?
I just finished up most of my lines last night and I have to say the old grey lines did not look bad. Makes me think the previous owner replaced them with OEM parts at some point. I still have the little line to replace on the carbs and still considering whether or not to remove my carbs to...
So in a 96 XP, which Quicksilver oil would you run? For some reason I always think synthetic is best, but I thought I heard synthetic was only for the newer 951 motors? I know for certain my local Wal-Mart carries Quicksilver.

I'll have to check the shop manual on the fuel selector. I'm a total noob. Can I do this with the fuel tank full? Thanks for the advice. I would have not tackled buying this ski without sites like these. I really appreciate the help

Ok, so the other day I finished rebuilding my pump and took the ski out. It ran fine, but when I went to the dock I noticed the red cap on the rave valve was punched out. After further inspection both of my rave valves broke at the stem. I don't think any pieces went into the piston. The ski...
