    Peloton Bike+ or Hydro Rower

    Peloton is WAY overpriced, but you are paying for the gimmicky TV screens, classes and advertising none of which I need. I don't need to watch a tv screen when I work out. I shopped for months for a rower. Kept coming back to the Peloton based on their insane seductive advertising, I was...

    SX230 the right Boat

    When I searched for a 230, AR was first choice, but were scarce as they are now. The key to finding a good used one? Wait until someone on this board decides to sell Many will appear, you just have to be patient. I bought two Yamahas off the boards, and have never looked back. The 230 is...

    Explorer ST

    It's a Ford. Enough said. I drove many a Ford police car over the years - would never own a Ford, unless it was provided free.and even then, it would be in the shop more often than other makes. After 30 years of Silverados, I can honestyy say my 2019 Ram blows the Sllverados away. Best truck...

    Keep or move on?

    Money is not a concern for me, ever. But I would sell the boat. Clean it up real nice, and you should get top dollar since the market (has been don't know if it is now) hot. You won't use it with an infant. Unload it, and in 3 or 4 years take your time looking for another, as the market...

    Advice on Stuck Jet Cleanout Plug LS 2000

    Next time I am down that way maybe you can take me out for a ride and show me the area. I was considering bringing mine down for the winter but dread at 818 miles of towing a boat. Plus if the waterways are crowded, that is not my thing. I'm used to an isoloated river with zero traffic.

    Advice on Stuck Jet Cleanout Plug LS 2000

    Just be smart. It is safe. You pour the gas in. Then screw the top back in. Shut the engine compartment. And start it up.

    Advice on Stuck Jet Cleanout Plug LS 2000

    I had same problem of no starting. Easy fix. Of course, my senile brain can't remember exactly, but I recall unscrewing any one of the three black caps over any one of the carbs, pour about 3 ounces of gas in, and she fired right up. I used to use one of those bathroom paper 3 oz dixie cups...

    Advice on Stuck Jet Cleanout Plug LS 2000

    There are 2, on the starboard side. I don't recall them being in the engine compartment, just kind of attached to the gas lines attached to the starboard wall. But I may be remembering incorrectly. I'm getting old/. https://yamahajetboaters.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=225&t=43148&hilit=+filter...

    Advice on Stuck Jet Cleanout Plug LS 2000

    That sounds like a fuel filter issue. An easy in and out. Buy a few cheap ones at Walmart. I always carried a few on board and it is truly an easy swap on the water. You'd be surprised how easily they clog up. Switch 'em out and the engines will rock once again.

    Advice on Stuck Jet Cleanout Plug LS 2000

    Thats a rocket ship on rails. I loved mine, but am happy I sold it. Lots and lots of annoying maintenance. And as luck would have it, I was one of the first, if not the first, to have suffered the dreaded oil line failure, many years ago, on the other forum and under another name. No need to...

    Battery charger/trickle charger for Winter Recommended?

    This one, this one! Customer service is KING! I picked this dual charger about 5 years ago after a recommendation from this board. This year one of my batteries finally died. I'll take 5 years, and the other battery is still strong. The kicker? My charger went defective a few months ago...
