- My 9yr old loves her 1988 Yamaha WaveRunner 500 so much.. I scored another one. Needed a carb and I had to disconnect the heat sensor. Oh and a CDI... You can find these old Yamaha's in fields. Usually they just need some clean fuel and fresh plugs.

I’m addicted too these old Yamahas. They’re tanks
I love them too! People age almost giving them away. They're great little skis! How's your Waverunner series going?
@@StefanMailey honestly great. It started taking on water recently and I’m having trouble pin pointing it. Thinking about just buying a bilge pump kit for it
@@motovlogunleashed Put it in the water and take off the seat. Sometimes the steering cable allows water to trickle in. Where the cable goes out the back of hull. My 701 VXR does it. Mines actually missing the plastic nut.
@@StefanMailey it’s quite a bit of water. Can only ride it for about an hour before you have to take it out and drain it.
@@motovlogunleashed Man... That's a lot of water, dude. Id try to figure that out quick. lol
Right on Stefan keep these things alive. Keep up the good fight!
Thanks my guy! Your content motivates me!
Hell Yes! That’s what its supposed to do. Thanks for the good vibes, keep it up!
I’m a Yamaha tech and I can’t speak on that motor specifically but Yamaha outboards usually call for rtv (yamabond) on top of the gasket. I agree it’s stupid but that’s what the service manual says
Yes, It's def a personal thing. Cheers, buddy!
Great video… back in the 1900’s I had an ‘87 Wave Jammer 500…. I was 15 and loved the versatility… Higgins Lake, Michigan….
Opportunity to buy a really nice shape 1990 650 LX on a trailer for 1k… that brought me to your video… how much faster the 650 vs 500? Noticeable?
@@GeorgeLanivich thanks for watching! Yes, the 650 is a nice noticeable upgrade. You’ll be a lot happier with the power.
Right on man. Im rebuilding my 92 right now. Fun machines eh
Ya buddy! You building a 550?
LOL. I meant a 500... They are super fun skis! They like to spin.
Did you see that mouse run under that one you're at?
NO! Ill have to go back and tack a look! lol
Have a wave runner 650 pink can you help me out buddy or you can get it for the right pl
Price?
What would you like help with?
@@StefanMailey finding out will it start back to working like you do on your show?
