Interruption written off . . . back to cars

Ok, so like I said before, I've been playing wave runner mechanic all summer and I can say with a fair bit of certainty that I'm not real great at it. It's not for a lack of trying . . . I did everything but stand on my head a whistle Dixie out my a** to try to get this thing to run right. I got about an hour and a half of good running from it on Saturday night . . . and then poof . . . nothing more on Sunday. I checked compression and sure enough, cylinder 1 (magneto side) was as holy as swiss cheese. This lead to the interesting jux position on owners that I'm dealing with. The wave runner was something that someone just flat mislead another on . . . versus the MGB which was, just what I got. It wasn't sugar coated or made to be any more than what it was. You can see in the pic, the time the MGB's previous owner took to bag and label parts . . . very handy to put things back together. The other pic shows what the wave runner's previous owner did to just get the thing patched back together long enough for sale. Sad.
