I got my 96XP running finally. After buying a brand new Wally World never start battery I couldn’t get it to fire. Replaced solenoid, ignition coil, cut back all positive and negative leads. Pulled starter had it load tested and then pur everything back to original parts. Bought agm battery and fired right up went to load test it on the trailer today. Found a hole in the J pipe on one of the Welch plugs so that needs to be fixed. But when revving it up sometimes it would rev up to full throttle and bounce off the rev limiter let it come back to idle and it would maybe rev up to 3/4000 rpms and sound like it was putting a huge strain on the motor. Let off again and give it full throttle again and it would hardly rev up and seem like the strain was there again. Let off throttle go to idle and hit the gas again and it would rev fully up and bounce off the rev limiter. Could this be a possible recticifier issue? Note( the ski had not been started in a couple years. I am trying to revive it and give it life once again. I drained all the old fuel as much as could possibly get.) put 2-3 gallons of premix in originally because that’s all I had. Injector is not blocked off so would make it run a little rich. Now that I got it running I added 4.75 gallons of ethanol free fuel before water testing. Cleared all the fogging oil while running it on trailer in water. Smoked like a banshee! I just do not know if maybe it was clearing out the old fuel. I ran it for maybe 3 minutes with the revving being fine then straining itself. Sorry I am not sure how to post a video or I would:/
