It sounds like a failing start battery. Charge the battery up fully. Let it sit for a couple hours and note the voltage. Leave it sit, not connected to anything, and check it... -
I thought the 1000 crank had a different rod?Leave a comment:

I've done it by pulling the engine OR by pulling the fuel tank. On a customer ski I will usually just pull the fuel tank out. Pretty easy to do, then use LONG extensions to reach...Leave a comment:

Have you already done a compression test? Sounds like it's been siezing up.Leave a comment:

I'm always paranoid of something like this happening. I check the plug color after about 15 minutes ride time. Then again after about 30 minutes. Then after one is broken in,...Leave a comment:

And when all else fails.....pull the front apart. I had one doing wierd crap like this once and finally pulled the flywheel and stator. The front seal had puked it's spring and...Leave a comment:

My notes say all 3 low speeds at 1/2......I usually set them at 5/8. High speeds are mag 1, cen 1/2, pto 3/4. Again, I usually go 1/8-1/4 turn past that as a starting point....Leave a comment:

You might have just got some bad gas at a station. Leave the ski sit in one spot for a day nose down. Open the front hatch and remove the bin.....or go through the glove box....Leave a comment:

You'll need to pull spark plugs and crank the water out. Then put in one plug and crank a little. Then the other plug and crank a bit. Then try some carb cleaner in the plug holes...Leave a comment:

Yuck.....a 951 Di. Replace all the fuel filters. On the skis there are 2 in the tank on the pump module and one inline. DO NOT buy them from Quantum fuel. Their module filter...Leave a comment:

I've seen the boats flood the bilge through the exhaust outlet gasket. Park it nose up and start filling the bilge with water in the yard.....check to see where it runs out.Leave a comment:

Damn, that's some cheapa$$ stuff. I have some $2 black spray paint that holds up better than that! I can't say I'm surprised though. I've seen the prices on new skis creep up...Leave a comment:

Sounds like a fuel supply issue.Leave a comment:

That sounds low but I'm not 100% certain what it should be. How do the cranking voltages compare to the other windings in my thread? If the rest are all similar then I would assume...Leave a comment:

I don't ever condemn a stator on ohms alone UNLESS it's dead shorted to ground. Does it still produce a good AC voltage number while cranking? Around 20 VAC?
