any1 wana see this? iv had it for over 1 year runs well / thou low compression 120psi even ??? first time posting pics hope it works out. http://s1274.photobucket.com/user/simof ... sort=3&o=2
I wondered what happened to that ski! Did you buy it from a guy just north of Auckland? Was a good ski when I sold it, 120psi sounds very low though. http://www.dalusionfwx.co.nz/forum/viewtopic.php?t=580
yea dude, the guy had two hummer trucks in his drive ,he probley could o sold it 2 me cheaper it had 3 broken moter mounts ididnt know about. is a lot nicer ski than the other sn iwas going 4.glad i got this 1 insted its tidy
wow that ski certainly done the rounds! , used to be mine, http://www.dalusionfwx.co.nz/forum/viewtopic.php?t=52 120 does sound a bit low...but could be the comp gauge itself...some tend to read a bit lower than others...
Yeah, the guy with the hummer trucks bought it off me. Called me up about 3 months after he bought it said I'd sold him a dud, turned out the battery lead had broken off the starter motor - not something I would have known was going to happen....anyway, he'd towed it across a lake and left it sitting for a while (the spark plugs were wet) after that so I had wondered if it had survived. Knoxie had replaced the crank etc prior to me owning it, so it should have been in pretty good running order. I'd say Knoxie is possibly right, if both cylinders are the same it might be the compression tester. I've been told that if the tester screw isn't the same length as the spark plug that small space can make a lot of difference in the compression test. Things I reckon would make that an awesome ski: MSD enhancer (PM JETWERKS, pretty sure Roger has em), twin 38 carbs (the oversized carb on that ski is a bugger to tune) and put a round nose pole on it. Do all that and it'd be a pretty decent ski. Wish thats what I'd done rather than sink heaps of $$ into a new ski.
yea cheers guys,iv seen the vid of this skii in gizy 08 haha,fck the gis concill. i tested it again last nigth throtle open,no plugs in and it read about 130/140psi i will open her up in a few months an c wat it looks like inside(cause i halve sunk it 2...i left the hose flush conection in then went 4 a ride :roll: i also destroyed the fuel cover attempting a stab
yea cheers sicboi much better. dax wat will putting a r/n pole on achieve, will it be longer or shorter than this alui pole? and can i run the same steer cable if i change pole. pole measures 1020mm from(braket) bolt pivot to stering pivot ,i have a fx-1 pole and cable that im not using at moment =950mm pole alui
Will be shorter, I always found that pole way too long....doubt you'll ever break it though! Ask high-flyer, he broke his S/N pole and fitted a R/N pole.
yea cheers dax will pm hi flyr it is a nice pole (shiny blue) t-bear ill try my fx1 (same lengh as +08 i believe/will seach about this) pole on it b4 i make a decision
Yeah dont trust just one compression tester, almost didnt buy my ski cause of 120 readings till tried 2nd tester and got 140's
