  2. I Solved. I removed the hose from the outlet side of the sea strainer and ran the garden hose directly into it, this time with the impeller hoses connected. Let it run until the thermostat opened and the engine didn't go past 175 degrees and cooled back down to ~160. I then reconnected the sea strainer and tried the fake-a-lake again. It pulled the water in fine and everything worked. it must've just had trouble getting that initial prime with the partial seal from the plunger. Probably would have been fine on the lake. Thanks for the help!

  3. Hi Dave~ Here is what we have learned so far. (11 hours) Goofy~ Fill all ballast. Set it at 11.6 and ride all day on a flawless wake. You can't mess up the goofy wake. (my wife rides goofy) Regular~ Fill all ballast and start surfing. Open the starboard side ballast until the regular wake cleans up a bit. You will need to dump about a 1/3 of the ballast on that side before it cleans up. Overall the wake is a dream. The boat seems to be back heavy so you will need a full front bag at all times or it will wheelie and shorten the wake. Also, if you don't fill the front, the moto

  5. Certain battery tenders/chargers can desulfate a battery. I use the Noco Genius 5 for all my toys and it desulfates.

    Ignition issues

    Turns out my issue was the throttle assembly. Starter was fine, voltage was good, I pulled the ignition switch and it tested fine. I noticed that the throttle wouldn't go into "neutral" (i.e. push the button for the light to go on to be able to rev the RPMs without the prop engaged). I never use this, so I don't even know how long that's not been working...but that was the clue I needed to know this was the throttle assembly. I got a new one, installed it, and the problem was instantly solved. Thanks, all.

  10. The F24 and the B25 both come standard with a 440 and 2:1 trans. I just spent a couple of days driving the 25' with a 575 and 2:1 trans and it was so smooth and effortless. With the 2:1 we were surfing at 3,500RPM doing 11.6mph with all tanks/bags full and 5 people on board.

  15. Id say charge them up. They are probably fine. I do my impeller every other year. If you use the boat they will last years, but its so cheap and easy. peace of mind.

  16. You are correct! That was the issue. I didn't think it would be because of test #3 I described above but it turns out that my tower speakers are not wired up correctly. I called Exile about this because I had previously sent the ZLD to them to repair this issue. They apologized that it was still happening and are sending me a brand new ZLD. I certainly appreciate their customer service and working to make things right.

  18. its probably that little cabin button on the zld. "finger it really fast on and off" when mine was going bad, it would do that and it would start working.
