Tigershark PWC First wash in 15 years (first start attempt)

In this video I drag home another old jet ski and try to bring it back to life after sitting around for 15 years since last on the water. cleaning was success. First start.. less than successful but things were learned and i'm confident it will make it back on the water with some time and $$

Just bought my first Tiger shark and first jet ski at that. Second weekend out and it's leaking water somewhere. Where do you Hook a hose up to it to check?

So what happened?????

[@michaelmiller3397]

I just got one and there’s oil in the crankcase which confuses me cause they’re two stroke

Hi, I live in Ardmore, Oklahoma. I think you’re near Tulsa if I heard correctly in another video. I enjoy your content. I am curious if you’re willing to give the name of the place you find these skis also, what do you do if it’s abandoned like how hard is it to get a title? I am fortunate enough to own a 1993 waverunner 3 that I got from a family friend orginal owner and titles already. I use on lake Murray all the time but I am curious if the DMV ever gives you trouble on titling an abandoned ski or how to go about it (what to provide) id like to get ahold of another for a winter project, thanks.

Hey thanks for your comment. The place I have gotten a few of these skis is just from the marina out on grand lake that I keep my 33’ boat at. I help the marina a little bit here and there fixing skis for their customers so the owner lets me take the abandoned stuff and gives me first dibs on the (not worth it to the customers) deals. This summer I went though the abandoned stuff. There will be more but there isn’t really much left at this moment. Feel free and follow me on Facebook (Chris basile) in tulsa ok. I list anything on marketplace if I don’t want to mess with it.
As far as getting titles for abandoned stuff in Oklahoma there is 2 ways
There is a title 42 and court orders. Your close enough to Okc where you can get those done easy, they are faster.
Personally I title 42 everything. I have a tag office here in tulsa that does them
For me for 150$ they take about 2-3 months to get the paperwork back and your the owner here’s your Oklahoma title. Obviously this can only be done on something that has no liens or police reports on but as long as it’s actually a abandoned your good to go. I’m about to get back to this thing here in a bit stay tuned for some action. I have a bunch of fun winter projects to follow

[@jarrincastleman6735]

Awesome man, I will definitely add you to Facebook, thanks for the info and content. It’s hard to find local (Oklahoma people) to contact with on these old skis, I am not very mechanically included but I wouldn’t mind a small project if the price were right, thanks again

Did you get the starter goin?

[@chrisbasilebuilds]

Nope. Scoped it and the engine was super rusty. Sent it to the scrapper used the trailer for something else
