I thought what better way to try and teach viewers that may have never rebuild a carb, than walk my kids who had never done it through the process. Anyway I need more b-roll and stuff. I’m learning with each video. It’s what made me appreciate the clean production of yours. Thanks for taking the time to watch.

This is awesome, great step by step video. Super idea to explain to someone else how to get it done and record it. Maybe a good idea to get yourself an affiliate link from somewhere and then add all of the tools you are using to the description. That mirror with the lights, the magnet thing you used in one of the last videos. I'll be looking for those, you could have earned a commission, and made my search easier!

My son wants a jet ski. So I’m trying find one that needs to be fixed. We’ll see how bad he really wants one. If he wants to fix it then he can ride it.

I just picked up two 1995 seadoo gtx 657s today. Both wont start. Replaced fuel and plugs. One will start and then cut out. Oil on the plugs. The other one wont start. Ordered carb kit. Great vid this will be very helpful. Hopefully that solves the issue

I've honestly been shying away from taking on an older carbureted jet ski as a project because they all pretty much need carb rebuilds. That isn't as intimidating as I thought! Some videos make the pop-off pressure look like a space shuttle launch!

Hey Josh, nice job! On the pop off pressure could you just bend the arms instead of cutting the springs?

@Nine_Finger_Wrenching

Жыл бұрын

Tim I have seen guys bend the arms some but you only have so much space in there. Not sure why I went this way straight away…..but I did 😂 I stayed close to the top end of the range, that way if the clipped side of spring collapses a little I should still be in spec range…..I hope. 😎👍

I have the same exact jet ski need carb build also I just don’t know how to remove it correctly

@@Nine_Finger_Wrenching no it’s on the hose on the outlet side. All the videos I’ve watched that’s how it works. The pump pushes water into the motor, it circulates and exits out the side with the arrow facing out.there’s an arrow on the head where the hose that pumps water in and an arrow where it exits after it goes through the motor.

Also how did you prime the oil lines on the first start ?
