  1. I moved my compressor and I need to hook up 220 in my barn. The barn has electric going to it but no 220. I can decide whether to go to home depot and get the stuff to give it a shot or just call someone to come do it. I know I need 220 breaker for the box and I need some wire and everything needed to complete a plug. I wired my compressor to use a plug so that way I can unplug it and plug in a welder. Any tips? Anyone know how much it would cost to have someone come out and do it?
  2. Should have told me, I was up at Indian Lake all weekend, you could have come up there. I think I will be good to make it Thurs. Shanton said he would be out too but might be in on a boat.
  3. I am trying to get everything fixed now to make it out. I have my new prop but I am not gonna have time to put it in.
  4. Well they obviously arent hurting for sales then. I guess when your the only real show in town you can force people to come when its good for you. I would have prob been annoyed also.
  5. Remind me next time we are out and I will bring the GPS. On a shitty side not your not the only one to almost sink your ski. I am guilty of it as today and I have spent the whole night trying to get water out of my motor. I was at Indian Lake today and was hitting the rather large wake at very high speeds and getting all time best air. Well it was enough to cause so much pressure in my bailer tubes that it seperated 3 of them where they come together. They are known in Sea Doos to come apart as they are only held on by zip ties. I actually had already replaced 3 out of the 12 zipties with hose clamps but got tired of it and said I would get it later and never got back to it. I had them in my toolbox in the truck today too. Also because I am a idiot I still have not installed my automatic bildge pump which would have saved me today but no my bailer system pumped my ski full of water and it was so high that my intake just sucked water right up.
  6. Still waiting on my prop and wear ring but I did pick up a few mph the other night with some more tuning. If everyone is going out this week I will throw my junk ass wear ring back in and come out but I will still be down on some speed.
  7. Send me your phone number. I have a very good friend in the market right now for this very same car with cash in hand. Any mods on the car at all?
  8. Yeah I am back as of the very end of May. I heard part of your voicemail you left me but I accidently deleted it before I finished listening with my fat face. I just looked and I have one cheaper batt that I used in my RXP for a few hours that is almost 7" wide a little over 6" tall and 3 1/2" deep. Let me know if you can make it work. I will hook it up to the trickle charger and make sure its good.

    Temper!?

    I too am a very extemely easy going guy. Ask anyone on here that knows me and they will tell you I am always joking and always having a good time but ever since I can remember I have always had a switch. I can go from one extreme to the other. As I have gotten older it has seemed to calm down quite a bit and I find myself thinking things out a little more, but there are still times I just get pissed and it is sometimes for no big deal. My anger used to turn straight to violence, I spent half of my Junior High/High School career suspended for fighting and unfortunatly still have the biggest "file" in all of Jonathan Alder School history. I am very embarassed of my anger issues because more often than not I make myself look like a fool. Especially with my GF. I have never and will never become violent towards her but I do get upset easily and sometimes I catch myself lashing out and yelling. She has helped me so much with just being able to think things through before I react that now she gets irritated with me because I just let so much go and don't let things that arent important bother me. I have had an issue since I returned to the States lately that when I drink my anger comes back and is multiplied. I have found myself acting like I was 17 again and just wanting to start shit with everyone because they looked at me wrong or bumped me. Not trying to be a bully but I just won't put up with any shit. So I have limited my drinking as of lately. I think for the most part its something you have to just grow through and mature to use your head before you let things get to you. I feel very much more controlled these days compared to what I was so I am alright with things. I even tolerate people talking shit to myself, just dont fuck with my friends or family and I am ok, I am not afraid to go to any extreme for any of my close friends or someone that is related to me. Oh and don't drive like a retard, most of my frustration comes from dumb ass fucking drivers.
  10. Sam I am just waiting for you to install the same waterboxes I have into your boat. Now that would sound sick. Now I just need to get mine running right. I am missing 400 rpms and a few mph. I had one hell of a time getting home in that storm, I couldnt see shit and even 270 was flooded. I didn't even risk running the back roads and taking the skis home so I just took them too Hilliard and then to the woman's house after the rain stopped. BTW where is all the good footage of the boat? Especially the one where Shanton was wave jumping
  11. Its not supposed to be even thinking about precipitation until 10pm tonight.
  12. I'll be there. Infact I'll prob already be there a bit early trying to see if I can figure out why I'm not spinning the rpm's I should be. My prop and wear ring are junk so thats prob my problem, I just need the new prop to get here ASAP so I can add that extra 8mph. Andrew, if you get a chance give me a call. I can have my other ski on the trailer if you needed but I wanted to ask you something before I came up there. 614-348-7854
  13. A little info about the ski would help. You know year, make, and model... Some places only work on things that are so old, for instance Ask Powersports will not work on anything older than an 2002. I wanted to have my 99s serviced before I got home so I didnt have to fool with it and they wouldn't do it. I am sure I can point you in the right direction but I have to know what it is. I would work on it for you but I am just too busy right now. It sounds like the carbs need run through.
  14. Lol ok well you may be right about that, but I was next to a family this week with a Four Winns they said the only thing they added was Captains Call and I was not impressed. My ski was literaly louder and had a better tone to it also.I love listening/watching boats with nice exhaust and a bad ass motor to boot. I miss my boat.
  15. Now imagine the same thing but then having them realize all of that sound is coming from a jet ski. Its all about the WTF factor.
  16. http://greenhulk.net/forums/showthread.php?t=89635&highlight=fogging+oil&page=2 Here is a thread of some people bitching about WD40 and listing what products they recommend.
  17. Yeah some LB7s had injector issues but I know of plenty that have had no issues what so ever. Now get some tunes on that thing with EFI Live. I have a shit ton saved for your truck when your ready. It makes it a completely different truck.
  18. Oh and lol for me looking retarded... I keep forgeting the not everyone else has a four stroke and that you dont have any case oil. I was saying change the oil but I was refering to bottom end oil. You can skip that stage I guess lol.
  19. Mine wasn't as shitty as yours but when I was camping in KY this week I only had limited tools and my stock charger started going out and I was loosing speed. I went to switch to the Les Cooke SC and I broke a damn bolt off. I didn't have the tools to get it done. I finally got it done today but i also realized something went through my pump and my prop/wear ring are damaged and I am at a loss of RPM's. Waiting now on a custom pitched prop from Green Hulk. I will be out Thurs with the new charger but don't know what kind of speeds I'll be running with the rpm loss. Look on the bright side, maybe you will be able to pull on me this week...
  20. I would say fog everything with WD40 for overnight but only if you make sure you are gonna get the good shit tommorow so that it can prevent any rust from the WD40. My only proof of WD40 causing me problems is that I used to coat my impact tools with it and it would keep moisture away for awhile but then would seem too accelerate rust build up after a few days. I started using some other products and various oils and havent had a problem since.
  21. Boeshield Lubricant is the name of one of the more popular ones. It is made for lubricating aircrafts at sea or something like that. I am still trying to find a link to some others. Google this one or something it can give you an idea of where to get it or something similiar.
  22. Paul I don't have strong evidence against it but I have always been pushed away from using wd40 for stuff like that. give me a second and ill find the link to some very popular products.
  23. I would say continue to try to get all visible water out, change the oil and run for a minute or two on the hose, then change the oil again and run for a couple more minutes and then check to see for any water in the oil. Just dont run it more than a couple seconds without it being on the hose. And remember to start the ski, then turn on the hose and turn the hose off before you shut the ski off. Otherwise you will run water back up through your exhaust and flood your engine again. Call me if you need anything.
  24. Yeah I too was just getting ready to say that some of this might not be best to be so public if thats what he considers doing.
