  • This is Episode 248 of Mike Finnegan's Garage and this time I'm getting my wife's twin-turbo LSX jet boat ready for a family vacation. The cooling system is a mess so I spent a day cutting, crimping and installing new hoses and then Kevin Smith from KSR came over to help water test the boat on my local lake. It went about as well as it always does but we did learn some valuable lessons. Once testing ended I decided to teach Kevin how to ride my old 1994 Yamaha Superjet stand-up personal watercraft. That turned out to be really fun and I think he may now be as addicted to riding the thing as I am. Hope you enjoy the vid! Thanks for watching and I'll see ya soon.

Learning to snowboard, (at 20) tubing behind a boat with a woman driving it, and learning to ride a stand up jet ski, even at like 15 years old. You use muscles you didn’t even know you had, and are reminded about 2 days later…. At 65 you’d be crippled for 2 week’s minimum

    Grew up with a 16' white water racing hull with a jet drive. 455 Olds rocket N/A. To help with oil cooling we put a honeycomb style oil to water inner-cooler an a gate valve with two remote mounted filters. The gate valve regulated the velocity then a pressure valve to bring the lake pressure off the jet drive to standards of usable pressure. Before the pressure valve was installed we had some low quality oil filters explode an I remember being 15 an taking an oil shower after a full throttle pull.

    I have a 19' scarab sprint with a 446 cubic inch lsx topped off with a 4.9 kenne bell liquid cooled. Its a pretty fun little sleeper of a boat.

    Also if ur doing alot of plumbing with plastic pvc etc. I recommend getting the black tubing cutters from any hardware or plumbing store. Not the ratcheting type just the hand cutters

    I did the pressure testing for BIC years ago, I hope your regulating your water pressure on the outlet side of your intercooler. Could be allowing it to run low on water causing fluctuating water temps.
