This channel is dedicated to all of my "garage" projects, from restoring boats and jet-skis to working on cars, and even some construction work.
I am open to suggestions from fans for future projects! let me know in the comments or shoot me an email!
I am also open to collaboration with other channels!

Alot of tourque for these kind of couplers 😅😅
Nice job working it out
You, Sir are a saint and a scholar and I thank you. God thanks you!
Put a gas turbine in your JetSki next 😂
It was a good project but do not think it is safe to ride on the possibility of getting shocked once swamped in water. All the pounding of the Sea-Doo all batteries will be tossed everywhere and possible electrical fire.
you're talking so slow that it's only when you set the video speed to x1.5 that you can watch it at all
you gotta figure out how to talk faster 😂
Playback at 1.5x...perfect
...And then you totally redeem yourself. Great idea.
When you set up a Lovejoy connector between your motor shaft and drive shaft they must be perfectly aligned. Use a dial guage on each side. They should have near zero runout . Otherwise they will not last very long! 😎
Heu bud i have a mericruiser engine is a 3.0 4 cylinder 120 HP is that the same motor u are rebuilding ???
Painting works in the dark are revealed in daylight. It would require incredible luck if it is to succeed, it was probably the most grinding job that required more time.
the couple is crooked, it should be near silent
wish you would give more description about how to remove the speedometer cable and the shift lever
Man i was hoping to see a slightly in depth way how to set the valve lash
Zach, I'm impressed by your tanacity and enginuity.. but I've been a mechanic for over 45 years, and I could of told you electric anything is an absolute waste of time.. there is nothing out there that has as much energy density as flammable liquids.. and as mentioned before, water is incredibly sticky.. and weight makes it even worse.. you wasted huge amount of money and time.. but the memories and education is priceless... Don't let any useless tree hugger convince you that batteries are comparable.. the day you invent energy density as small as a gallon of gas. You have solved world hunger... Lol.. Not too mention the horrific destruction lithium mining does using fresh water...
Well said 😁
Well said Pete 😁
@@ZachsGarage1 Very impressive build. Will you come back to KZread?
I agree the ability to just add more gas and continue to drive around all day while you are at the lake is just so much better in my opinion that gas motors offer over electric plus price.
Recycle the batteries and you will have enough $ for a new Ski!
I did head gaskets on a 4.3 mercruiser. Is remove and replace that much harder? This one's got a blown engine. Probably will just buy a short block
The ants don't eat the wood. First there's mold and other fungi that rots the wood, and then there's beetle larvae and such that feed on that, and after that comes the ants to feed on those bugs and nest in the tunnels the larvae dug. It's always about an ecosystem, not the top of the food chain.
It's not more expensive in short-long run...fuel cost... Great build and quality video!
Do you know any remote starter kits compatible with this motor? I like how you used the switches but I'm curious if there's ready to go option. Thanks for making great videos.
Should have just bought a replacement engine 😅
You’d need much bigger battery to make that usefull. Jetski is most likely one of the most difficult vehicles to electrify, because of high power demand. A car may have 500kw power but it needs only 15kw to drive 100km/h. Jetski can have 300hp and still be driven wide open all the time. It’ll of course empty the tank in 20 minutes with such driving. For decent budget electrification, one should find suitable hybrid vehicle motor from junkyard and try to get controller on it. I have seen new 400 Ah lfp calls in a price of 80$/kwh. That would halve your battery costs. Personally, I’d stay away from planing boats or jetski’s unless I’d plan to use hydrofoil as Swedish Candela
Buying any EV is buying your own slavery if I had to explain you’re way behind
Szkoda czasu na oglądanie
I learned a lot from this video. Thanks
Did you tear it down and rebuild because of the seize? I might have missed a vid and don't know of you were ever able to free it up and turn it.
Come back! We need another video on this jetski!!
Check out the pawn shop or HarborFreight for a circular saw. My fav Skill77
Novel idea but useless.put the gasoline engine back in it.
Why aren't you showing us how you measured the floor pieces? ...and uhh...I know a future politician when I see one. Or Used Car Salesman. Same thing. Great ending to this video.
where did you get your flex hone at? and is there a part # or SKU on the box?
Where did you get your flex hone at?
Definitely shoulda have went with something like a SPIM08HP... The cells are 8ah each, and you can pull 100C out of them (800a). And they're less than 10 bucks a piece. Pretty nuts.
when talking about weight, don't forget the subtract the weight of the fuel tank full with gasoline and the oil tank full
Hola saludos desde España, ha cuantos grados de avance va un mercruiser 3.0 lx gracias.
You did some great work young man!
incredible content bro. literally put on a class throughout the series. sorry to see you stopped uploading.
Amazing!
Just use a small power inverter to make 140 to 150 volts! Then use a small 12 V battery and use an inverter to convert it to 150 V and hook that to the motor!
Couldn’t you just used to 12 V batteries hooked to two 120 V inverters 1500 watt each. Then connect them in series to make 240 volt 3,000 watt of power! Only using 2 12 V batteries!
You can use one 12 V battery and one power inverter to get 120 V!! The power inverter is white and Ken be $150 at Harbor freight for 1500 Watt! Then you could just wire up the motor to 120 V cord and plug it in!!
It’s amazing that he can just beg and get it for less than half the original cost!! What a lucky bastard!
You can use a polyester filler with catylist to fix the imperfections and a poly-fill primer. to make it good as new.
Hate to say it but price vs outcome is why I will keep rocking that ol 2 stroke motor. Just not cost effective for way to many people
Should have just bought the gas motor
What if a shark is coming and the seadoo starts to sink, you got a rough choice shark or electrocution
You could have bought a Hopped up 1000cc or bigger for the amount you spent on that “Set up”
thanks
Guys who talk with 'fry-voice'...🙄
