Hey is there one of these made for a 94 yamaha wave raider??🙏🙏❤️❤️🤠 Thanks! This is is really cool!

Great video. helpful . seeing you from Pakistan.

Outstanding and awesome as always.Thanks for sharing and taking us along

Hey Jim! I have never been to World Finals, would love to see this style of video of the trade show next week.

Great video! Now I have a good motivation to learn English so I can understand what is being said. I have a Kawa 650 jet ski too. And I want to redesign the cooling system too.

Where is JetSki, Jimmy? We need more 650 videos.

Just wanna take a second to thank you for the videos you do. I just got a very clean 89 ts650. I’ve completely torn everything down to check it all out and to make sure it’s good to go. I’m a tech at a local power sports dealership but have zero knowledge of pwc till about 3 weeks ago. (Thanks to you for teaching me what I’ve learned). My question is. I’ve got the engine out to do the oil pump delete and the grenade switch delete. Somewhere on one of your videos I’m pretty sure I heard you say if you do the oil injection pump delete, you need to run a 82 jet. Is that the main jet or the pilot jet? Next question. Would you happen to know the part number? Thank you for your amazing knowledge and teaching us younger guys!!

This might be a stupid question but I’m assuming stainless 8mm for the case drain holes?

Dusty work. Good work.

Good morning ,wuld líke how to meassure the cdi and triger because have one that doesnt start I donde have a manual that gibe me the meassures,thank you

Do you know if these cylinders are nikasil plated/lined?

I just put straight bars on with a finger throttle. The cable seems to be too short to keep it from turning all the way but it also doesn’t even pull the lever all the way back. Any tips?

Neat truck. 💪👍🏼

Just curious why not use 3M5200 instead of silicone?

I really miss the old X-2. Now of days everything PWC related seems like a yacht by comparison.

Man this really makes me miss my old Kawi X-2 and my wave jumping days. Good Times.

Hey man, I went through all your 650 videos but didn’t see it. You talked about converting the oil injection tank into a second fuel cell but I never saw it. Can you make a video or elaborate on this? I have a vented oil tank with a solid cap. I think this would be a slick idea if it’s simple but I haven’t found any old forums on it and just want an explanation. Thanks!!

Wonderful / helpful video. This together with your video on where and how to yank the assembly from the tank made this relatively easy. However, I spent about 2 hours tryig to figure out why my updated assembly (replaced the pump motor) wouldn't push any gas... Turns out my black and blue wires are crossed. Black is positive and blue is negative. I confirmed this watching your video closely, and sure enough, my black is in the plug position where your blue wire is and vice-versa. Switched the wires and back in business. Hopefully this helps someone and saves some head scratching....

Before removing fuel lines, loosen the gas cap to relieve fuel tank pressure. If this step is skipped, there will likely be fuel pouring out of the open end of your fuel line. I always start by loosening fuel cap to relieve pressure, then remove fuel line at fuel rail. Easier to catch remaining fuel with pig mat, and you get a feel for how the red clip works (DON'T BREAK IT!!)

Hey, I am 11 years old but I got JS 550 but then I found out I’m not allowed to ride it till I’m 16. And I was wondering if there’s any way I can ride it in Arkansas before I’m 16.

Hi Jim, These videos are great, thank you. Could you point me to the part where you describe how to convert the oil tank to a fuel reserve tank? I’ve watched it before but can’t remember which video it was! Thanks for your time.

I am about to boar mine out , or at least think about it. When you did yours did you notice improvement to the bottom end. Not look for speed

I have a question So can I take out the fuel pump without separating the hull in half? My sxr's fuel pump has stopped at the moment, so I'd really appreciate it if you could answer it

Any recommendations where to ride on Lake Havasu? First time with riding there. 90 square nose SJ. Thanks!

I’m more so interested in also seeing what plane that radial was attached to lol

I’ve got a 92’ wave runner with a 650, what size jet do you recommend for humid south environments?

After 7 years of use there was absolutely nothing in my tank, not a spec of debris, it makes me wonder how bad US gas is or how careless many people are with their gassing practices.

Im in need of a 650 sx handle pole would you have an extra laying around by chance

I was wondering what factors lead to you using a 15 pitch prop. Is it based on engine power or weight of the rider? I’m thinking about taking mine apart this winter because I live up north. I ordered a pump stuffer and intake grate for it. I don’t know what pitch I have now but I want to check when I get it apart and would like to know if it’s good or if it’s worth replacing before reassembling… thanks

Thank you for sharing! I’ve learned more from this channel already than every google search, facebook page or forum I’ve been on combined! I just got my first couple skis one 650sx and a couple 300sx’s. I can wait to get the 300s running and start modifying them all. They are in such good shape almost don’t want to modify them but it all looks so fun!

Jim, what is the part number for the inline fuel tank check valve you use?

Hi y'all, never commented on anything on here before, interesting video, I am doing one of these myself, but doing it a bit different, Have a couple of hulls lying around from custom skis so thought I would have a go.I always replace the entire fuel system with external filter, pump and regulator so it can be replaced without removing the motor to access the tank, also adjusting fuel pressure is how you adjust fuel mixture, stock is about 43psi..While the motor is out do a valve adjustment and oil change!!!! Fist off Im had to buy the starter solenoid base bracket, the ecm bracket and the coil brackets for a 1500sxr as they are different, all the 12f stuff is same bolt holes but different brackets. Second you need an sxr1500 tank and the float it sits in which is tough as they are back ordered to who knows when. Found a tank in Canada and glued pieces of a Husky kneeling pad to the bottom in strips, works fine. You also need the sxr 15 tank straps ,steering cable, throttle cable and battery box.Turn the ground and starter wires to face forward. I made a 4-1/4 inch disc out of aluminium for tank top with 2 1/4 pipe holes for fuel out and return. 12f motor fits fine with exhaust removed, Had to extend a lot of the harness to reach rear of the motor as the main harness plugs to the ecm at the front, soldered all connections and double shrink wrapped. Extended the run/off wiring to reach harness as handle pole is longer than on a sit down. I have connected the gauges at the rear of the motor, I will try it and then disconnect and try again. I have connected the crescent shaped steering sensor as I figure it probably reduces power on a sit down when turning ,but I have glued and then siliconed over the sensor trigger that sweeps over the crescent sensor in a straight on position, that is dead centred in the crescent so the ecm thinks the boat is going straight ,Also removed the tip over sensor thanks to Jims video.Running the stock 1500 sir pump as I have a few ,looks very similar to 12f just use elbows for water lines if u want use 12f. Used 12f reduction nozzle and turned 12f steering nozzle upside down ,trimmed extra lip off the end and spaced cable connection 1/2 inch or so {12f steering cable is on the other side ) G Ron amazon and buy a 4 pack of 1/4-28 stainless rod end bearings {14$} as the 15sxr cable is 1/4 -28 threaded at both ends, not 5mm like a 12f.Used stock 15sxr water box, changed my waterlines about a bit like usual, added 2 bypasses .Hope this helps, c u a body Beach!

Jim I have searched your videos but I don't find any related to my current problem. My 1997 Kawasaki 750ZXI is not getting any fuel. I believe my problem is with the fuel pickup tubes inside the fuel tank. I looks to be pretty hard to access it to remove the pickups. If you have any resources or info on the best way to tackle the problem please let me know.

This is great- while im new to PWCs, a lot of it is basic common sense, but I hate being that guy asking the dumb questions ...Thanks for the video~ I feel a lot more confident getting them into the water.. We all have to start somewhere.

Kawasaki fan boy lol

I have a 97 Kawasaki stx 1100 switched to pre mix and have trouble at idle and low speed, high speed it runs good just lacking almost 10mph. Would I need to re jet the carb or would my problem be fixable with tuning the needles?

I assume this can be done with the js550 coil? Any tips on where the needles are?

Hi @Jet Ski Jim, great videos. I Have a problem with my 550sx and i wanted for an advice from You. How când we talk? Thank you

Reading a Spark plug is another great way to tune

Bought a 550 piston port last winter. On summer two trying to get gremelins away to just be able to enjoy hehe. But hey, do enjoy learning and have found so much strange stuff! And still do… thanks a million for the 550 series build!

It isn't gutless for the era. Hi Range will give respectable fuel economy on the highway while Low Range provides the guts for when the going gets tough. Back then 78 HP was sufficient and 100 was high power so compared to today's insanity with 1,000+ HP Street Vehicles from the factory and Soccer Mom Mini Vans sporting over 300 HP the more reasonable power of those vehicles might seem a bit tame. Best!

Wicked stuff

I can't get enough of this stuff

More old yamaha content lol

Loving your videos. Really good info. Keep up the good work. Was surprised to hear you refer to the JetSki Bible... the Author, David Simon built my race boats back in the day. He was my mechanic on tour from 92-95. Still have one of them.

I love this lol

Great job Jimmy you are the man.

I found you because I got a 1992 wr500 from the dump and bought another 1989 wr500 hoping to make something good out of both and I just love the education you provide

I'm a new subscriber and I would love if you did something like this with the old waverunner 500 650 platform

Jim is there a fuel pump in a 1991 yahama wave runner?
