Thanks! Hopefully you have good luck with yours! I’ll have some more videos on this thing probably next spring. I ended up having a couple small issues with it, and then got sidetracked on my new SeaDoo Speedster project.

For the seat cover, just make sure to keep everything pulled tight and really work all the wrinkles out toward the edges and then staple it tight. You could also use a heat gun to make it easier to form and work with. I did not use a heat gun when I did mine though, so I don’t think it’s 100% necessary. For the plastic hatch cover, I just took a cutting compound, buffed it with that, then polished it, and finally waxed it. It looks better on the video than it does in person I will say that 😂

No. You definitely could, and it would probably make things easier. I personally try to avoid it so that in the event it gets changed again, it doesn’t rip chunks out of the foam

😂

No kidding 🤦🏻‍♂️

Is yours a 95 as well? From what I understand, it’s the only year where they had one inlet to feed both pumps. Currently that’s my biggest issue is trying to figure out the cavitation problems it’s having. Well that, and some questionable wiring 🤦🏻‍♂️

Absolutely! Glad it helped!

$2200. Depending where you’re at it may be a good deal or not. In Alaska, it’s definitely a good deal as boats like this are not as common, thus fewer are for sale.

You can for sure! It’s really not too terrible. Just take your time

No problem! That’s great to hear!

No shims on these ones. The large washer just sandwiches that destroyed pancake bearing against the pump housing. Probably a little different setup than an outboard jet. Can’t say I’ve ever worked on one of those.

@akgearhead makes sense. Hopefully you get parts in record time!

Me too! Absolutely stoked it wasn’t something worse 🤘🏼

Toasted

Should be around 55-60 mph

It absolutely is, and I think it gets a bad rap just from people that don’t know how to properly shift. Only time I had issues was during high RPM drag racing. I would get terrible lockout usually going into third, and the MGW has completely gotten rid of that issue.

Thanks!

Haven’t dug into it extensively yet. That’s the plan for today. I’ll probably swap the starter over from the known good motor. The shafts both have a ton of grass and debris wrapped up in them, so hopefully it’s just jammed up. I had that happen on my Polaris Jetski. Hoping it’s a simple fix and not internal engine failure, but it is what it is.

That is most likely going to end up being the case. Not too terribly worried about it though. I did buy it with the realization that the one engine would probably need rebuilt

Heck yeah! 🤘🏼

I can assure you the mounts weren’t forgotten. We hung it off the back, and said awww yeah she weighs enough it ain’t going nowhere

We had too many outboards. Needed to get rid of one

​@@akgearhead that's gotta be good for the environment

​@akgearhead one fun way to do it!

@@andrewcaddick3386you should’ve seen the detached fuel line dumping after it sank

We will rebuild ✊🏼

Yes. There’s zero wiring attached to the reverse lockout

Yup, I am 99% sure that they did. Either that or I got some outdated model. Either way, it was not an ideal way to install it.

@@akgearhead yeah, my mustang didn’t come with the factory spoiler, so I had to drill into my trunk, I could only install the outside 2 screws, the 2 inside screws were nearly impossible to fit

360 camera

You’ve had some issues I’m guessing? 😂

I don’t see why you couldn’t honestly.

@@akgearhead I’ll let you know how it goes! Appreciate the solid video sir

In the factory form, it just runs in line from your fuel filter to your fuel pump, and then has a pulse line that goes to the crankcase. You just cap that opening on the crank case, remove the auto cock, and run a new long piece of fuel line from the fuel filter to the fuel pump, replacing the short piece that was originally on either side of the auto cock.

No problem! Finding the plug is the hard part. After that it’s relatively easy for sure.

Heck yeah!

I will try to get a video of it uploaded soon!

Oh yeah. Getting ready to go rip it on the lakes soon!

@@akgearhead I’m going to look at one this weekend for $600. Guy says it has good compression on all cylinders.

@@parkers7009​​⁠​​⁠do yourself a favor, and test the compression for yourself man! They should all be around 120. If that back cylinder is lower than the other 2, I wouldn’t necessarily walk away, but just know that you will probably be having to do a piston and cylinder. I have had this thing on the water twice now, and I can tell you it absolutely rips. Super fun and agile ski. Far better for doing tricks than my larger wave runners. If you do buy it, I would immediately do the triple outlet fuel pump if I were you. Very cheap mod, and will more than likely save your engine. Also, delete the autocock if it still has it. I believe Polaris had a TSB for this years ago so it may already be gone, but if not, get rid of it. Aside from that, $600 is a good deal for it if the compression is good!

@@akgearhead do you have to remove the engine to change the fuel pump out? Also to change the fuel lines and clean carbs do you have to remove?

@@parkers7009nope! You can easily change the pump out, and pull the carbs along with fuel lines without removing the engine. Changing the lines out would definitely be a good idea for sure, especially if they’re original

Ending up in the ditch is half the fun! These are good points though, and I may dive more into an in depth build at some point. For now this is just meant to see how cheap and fun we can make it

@@akgearhead I get yua, you do you bud either way have fun ripping around on it.

Exactly!

Yup that was the downpipe glowing there

Once it actually drives lol

@@akgearhead start looking for a 25 horse

Just keep at it! It is not a great experience at all, but with patience you can get it!

Definitely

You need to get one 👀

Quad, bike, 4 wheeler, there’s lots of names for them honestly

That’s all the camera. I don’t have any type of microphone or anything on it. Bone stock GoPro Max

The car is loud enough it overpowers the wind

@@coolstorybro5778murica🇺🇸

I feel you there! I had the same exact problem when I went to do it, and had to spend quite a while digging before I found it. Glad to be able to save others from the same misery 😂

Thanks! I appreciate it!
