lean

Hello, I have a 1997 GSI with the 717 engine, single carb. I have been having issues with it all summer after a carb and fuel system rebuild. I still can't get it to run correctly (starts immediately but takes a long time to accelerate, bogs, doesn't maintain top speed). After short rides, I've...

hello to all, i have a 2001 gti 720, with two issues im not quite sure how to gauge. This is a pretty gone through build light resto. Issue #1 engine bogs at 0-1/4 throttle until clear then takes off. I know its a rich condition for two reasons, if i pull choke it dies. Also i remove spring for...

Hey guys! I've got a few questions to start with and potentially more to follow. I have 1995 GTX thats been in my family since it was purchased new. It just got a remanufactured SBT engine that I installed, as well as the carbs rebuilt, which I also did. Took them to a semi-local shop to...

Seadoo challenger 180 2008 When I put there's dess key in I get a single chirp and the start stop does nothing. Remove and reattach the key a few times, it works. Not a long beep but a single one chirp. I recently changed my starter solenoid because it was failing just in case this comes up...

I just wanted to thank everyone here on the forum , over the last few months i have had a hell of a time getting my molested/abused GTX to run right and after all that work, it finally runs , and like a CHAMP! i figured out why it was bogging before and fixed the problem. Before , we didnt...

Hi All, I posted this in the 2 stroke boat section without a reply, but this would apply to Ski riders too, so thought I'd post here too. Recently got the 96 Challenger out for it's first start up after a couple of months to get ready for Summer (Australia). Did the normal prep. Boat was...

Hi All, Recently got the 96 Challenger out for it's first start up after a couple of months to get ready for Summer (Australia). Did the normal prep. Boat was stuck on full throttle, diagnosed the issue as a seized throttle shaft. I'm since removed the carb, fixed the issue and reinstalled...
