Just wanted to say hello and introduce myself to the forum. I've just picked up a 92 650 SL for $400, its needs the bearings and shaft replaced form the jet pump. I just received the pump bearing rebuild kit and found a newer shaft for it. My biggest hurdle right now is getting the bearing in the front of the housing that sits behind the impeller to fit, the rear one fits perfect. I'm 99 percent sure even with freezing the bearing in the front it will not fit. I gave my local Polaris dealer the correct part numbers based off the online OEM Polaris diagrams. I'm going to follow up with them to make sure I got the right kit. Outside of that everthing else seems to be there from what I have seen and read about in my manual that I just purchased. I also plan on eliminating the oil pump (going premix) and taking the carbs out for cleaning. Should I replace the reeds? What else should I check out or replace while its down? One of the websites that I have found that I might order some parts from:
Model: SL650 -- SBT Jetski Engines, Parts & Accessories:
Here is a pic of the ski mid cleaning (took about three hours to get the leaf and dirt out of it) and was a budweiser break.
