how do you remove the auto-cock? like how are the fuel lines re routed?
@akgearhead15 күн бұрын
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.

@@parkers7009do yourself a favor, and test the compression for yourself man! They should all be around 120.

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.

As far as the front end goes do away with the stock (neck breaking) steering set up and build one from square tubing and weld on spindle hangers and use go kart style steering set up using tie rods, spindles, pitman arms.
