I Got A FREE Jet Ski - Will It Run?

[@StefanMailey]

Anything with a Yamaha 701 in it is worth 8-1000$. Best ,most reliable 2 stroke motor ever produced! Its also the most desired. Hang onto it dude.

[@motovlogunleashed]

Currently battling the issue of not being able to find OEM impeller or wear ring for it. Checked partzilla etc. Little frustrating.

[@stretchnuts4661]

I got a 97 Yamaha 760 for free from a guy selling his house in my neighborhood with the trailer, he had to get rid of it ASAP and it sat under a tree for 6 years and didn't run. But I think I can get it going. Pretty excited

[@motovlogunleashed]

It’s surprising to see how little you can do to get something running that has been sitting for that long

[@StefanMailey]

Im still watching...lol. Your wear ring must be on its way out. That ski should hit 45mph. Easily!

[@StefanMailey]

I scored a free Yamaha VXR Pro 701 last week. Well. I gave the guy 200$ for a new battery and a few other engine parts. Ski was free though. 147psi both cylinders. Great motors! i have a video up. Loved your video btw! Great score, brother!

[@motovlogunleashed]

Thanks for watching man I’ll check yours out as well

[@StefanMailey]

@@motovlogunleashed I subscribed to your channel. You have great content dude! 'tip' If you post a few shorts around lunch time hours. You'll grow your subs quick! 12 noon and 3pm is the best time. lol. Make them super short. 10-12 seconds max. People eat up "dirtbike' stuff.

[@motovlogunleashed]

@@StefanMailey thanks a lot man. And yeah I’ve been wanting to make some edits for shorts too. My computer needs some hardware upgrades. Has trouble rendering my GoPro footage in after effects lol

[@StefanMailey]

@@motovlogunleashed Just use your cell phone. lol. Look forward to more of your stuff, brother! cheers

[@ToddleyProductions]

I’d get that oem starter rebuilt. It will be better than anything you can buy

[@motovlogunleashed]

I should have done that because the Amazon starter I bought has already started to act up lol

[@ToddleyProductions]

@@motovlogunleashed yeah. I have a shelf full of oem starters that need rebuilt. Anything online comes from China. They don’t last

[@danguehne5094]

So when you fixed the exhaust leak did it run smoother or did you clean the carb?

[@motovlogunleashed]

After time it has ran better honestly. Still not getting full rpm range out of it and some cavitation from the prop but I can't find a wear ring and impeller kit anywhere

[@JimChair-zx4lu]

Are you in Seattle

[@motovlogunleashed]

Indiana!

[@hoffmiermp]

Curious what the intake grate, impeller and wear ring look like.

[@motovlogunleashed]

The grate isn’t bad, I haven’t checked the impeller or wear ring but I’m guessing it’s not great. I feel like I should be getting more speed and it’s definitely having cavitation.
