So I bought two jet skis for the summer, a 1994 750ss and a 1991 440 (both Kawasaki). Both started up when I bought them, and right before taking them to the river.

We got to the river, put them in and the 440 would not start... cranked over, started to start then died. Tried several times, it only cranked then...by then I figured I had flooded it, so left it tied to the dock, and we rode around on the other one.

After a couple hours, I came back, pulled it onto the trailer to change the spark plugs, and noticed there was about two inches of water in the hull.

1. Will it normally take on water if it just sits in the water for a few hours, obviously the bilge pump not running... and tied to the dock, rather choppy water. Or do I have a seal leaking or something? Hull is in perfect shape.

2. Any idea why it started before fine, but now wont? Im getting fuel, but doesnt seem like getting spark now. FYI new plugs, starter, and battery. Good compression, Thanks in advance

[[helping daughter with math homework,but not sure how to do it myself...]]

here's the table:

bus number:1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8

gas used(gal):5,8,12,15,18,20,22,25

miles driven:80,100,180,225,280,290,320,375

------------------------

and the questions:

a."write a linear equation that modles the relationship between miles driven (d) and gallons of gas used (g)."

b."use your equation to predict the number of miles such a bus could travle on 10 gallonsof gas."

c."use your equation to predict the number of gallons of gasrequired to drive such a bus 250 miles."

d."what do the values of m and b in your equation d= mg + b tell about the fuel efficiency of the school bus fleet?"

"write a linear equation for the table relating x and y"

x:2,4,6,8

y:5,8,11,14

My daughter is doing her homework..I suck at math, here is the problem:

"Write a linear equation for each table relating x and y"

x 0,3,6,10

y 2,8,14,22

Hi, my daughter is doing her homework and unfortunately I suck at math, please help....

the equation is:

5x+7 = 3x -5

Have had a 150 gallon salt and a 75 gallon fresh tank for years. It seems like the few times I have got a fish from PetCo...their fish wiped out my tank. Has this happened to you? Best Story gets Best answer!

My daughter really wants an African Butterfly for her 60 gallon freshwater tank. One pets store said they are freindly to tank mates, while a friend said no way her heard they will eat ANYTHING that comes near them at the top of the tank and will fit in their rather large mouth. She has a guppie, a catfish, a Farlow (SP), a sucker fish, bambooshrimp, flounder and snails.

In my daughters 60 gallon freshwater tank, her Albino shark, which is only about an inch long is picking on other fish even bigger ones! He killed her much bigger Bala shark and keeps nipping at the sucker fish and snails and chases the guppie! Why is he so mean? Is that in his nature? He may be finding a new home today!
