ski keeps dying ??

just got my ski back on the water after the winter ,it some times starts for a couple of seconds then dies and struggles to start again for a minute ,have just ordered new start stop switch but will nt arrive for a few weeks ,is there anything i can check easily ,also had carbs rebuilt over winter and new jet setup could it just need a real good tune?

I had the same trouble a few years back. It was my lanyard switch. I opened the actual switch and gave it a lube and it went fine.

same

yeah thats what i was hoping ,oredered new switch from ajsp but out of stock till end of november

i had a mate pull mine all apart and get it fixd.he says they are very easy to fixs.

Yeah ive already replaced the start switch ,and patched it up before ,time to start new again ,the electrics are prity average so keen to start replacing bits with new stuff

can also be the waterproof plugs for the start/stop wires near the ebox ......check they are not all corroded

theres one on trademe

Yer thats for a blaster and will not be long enough for a SJ

just cut wires and soilder in more to make longer if gets you going I also waiting for 2 on back order from ajsp

can i just remove the stop switch from the circuit ,tempoarly and turn the idle down?also if i remove it do i have to join the wires or disconnect them?

disconnected you short them together to stop ski

sweet ill cut the wires and turn the idle down ,does it affect the lanyard switch?

just unplug the stop switch rather than cut it.........
