Hiya, new member here. Recently picked a 1993/4 Bayliner Jazz 90hp to have some fun on the lake up here in Nova Scotia, Canada. If I can get it working properly anyway.
First jet boat, first 2 stroke, and actually first powerboat (I'm a sailor at heart but this little lake is too shallow). Few things to sort out, it's running like junk (no power, lots of pale blue/white smoke), and the "neutral" setting on the throttle causes the throttle to jam up which is interesting to say the least.
I see there are some known issues with these old motors so lots of reading to do around that, and I guess I need to figure out draining the fuel and tuning the carbs as a first step, I'm a girl who likes to get her hands dirty though so should be fun!
Look forward to learning and seeing neat jet boaty stuff
Paula
