1998 Polaris SLXH (1050cc) - CDKII (40mm) carbs. Rebuilt by Polaris two days
ago. SBT carb kits used (THANKS)!
Ski starts
and runs great. Idles 1200 in the water, 3000 out of the water. Power is excellent.
60-62 mph, 6500 rpm tops.
I'm running it rich currently. 50:1 premix in the tank and the oil injection is hooked up. It's running Yamahalube oil. It's being run rich because it was just cleared after ingesting water via previous owner.
Problem:
The ski bogs down at 1/4 throttle. You can't hold the throttle at 1/4, or the ski will die.
Idle is fine, 1/2+ throttle is fine. This makes the ski a real pain in the *** and rather "zippy".
Anyway, could the over-rich condition be the cause of this problem or should I be
looking for something else like vacuum leak or idle speed screws?
