    Xp 800 to run premix

    SD oil pumps are generally considered very very reliable but if you are determined to go premix you can run a loop using the old lines to the engine case and add a T (like a flush T for radiators, $1 at autozone) You can also use a small reservoir like a brake reservoir from a motorcycle for a...

    Spark on Battery Connect

    these aren't the type that you lick to see if they still have power left in them? I always get 9v and 12v confused.

    '97 GTX Build (Cutting corners, gambling on parts, etc.) Pitchforks and popcorn welcome.

    I felt the same way but my "work" on doo's is/was 90% taking old salt crusted ski's apart, and the carbs were a big problem. I recommend the 980's because like mentioned above you can pop them with a hammer which comes in handy for a screw that has been painted or has some crud on the head...

    '97 GTX Build (Cutting corners, gambling on parts, etc.) Pitchforks and popcorn welcome.

    Nothing wrong with building this up with swept off the garage floor parts, you won't be the first or the last to do that, and there are lots of success stories and failures. A friend of mine just did that recently with a 787 using assorted parts from me and another buddy that had stuff laying...

    Other Hobbies

    For me this past year I got heavy back into firearms and have taken many trips to the range, it's been educational and entertaining. Also ping pong, bought a table 3 months ago and have been playing a couple nights a week, it's been a blast!

    Stock vs Solas impeller

    agree with the general responses is that the impeller alone isn't going to give you any noticeable "wow, what a difference" moment. With that said, if you decide to make other adjustments such as with the pipe then you might see a noticeable difference with a combo package. If you plan on...

    Hump Seats

    there's a guy in bradenton FL that i'm sure can make them, he's done several custom seats and added a hump for my rxtx then made a cover to fit it. we had a brief discussion about doing a custom x4 hump seat a couple of years ago but then I sold my x4 and moved on from the idea. I've seen...

    Need new grips

    I was always a fan of ODI Rogue or Ruffian grips myself. I put Rogues on every 2 stroke I owned, but a couple friends had Ruffian and were pleased with them as well.

    Sbt motors

    I've seen SBT Motors last 6 months and I've I seen them last 6 years. If it's running well now properly maintained then don't worry about it enjoy the ski.

    FWIW I've experienced the same thing, its like FB marketplace became the more attractive option for locals overnight. Oddly enough I have three items for sale on CL and only 1 call in a week total. I've been too lazy to post up on FB, but this reminds me that I should do that today. I advised...

I saw this one last night, only 15 minutes from my place, and I'm wondering if its even worth my trouble, haven't even called and...

    Seadoo Forum Summer ride

    nope, parked it in the garage, sold off a few hundred in parts then decided I didn't want to spend 3-4K on a new engine. I still get to ride a friends XP every few weekends but took most of the winter off.
