I'm at work now, but e-mail me this afternoon and I will check in my
service manual for you.

Don't know if this will help but I did some work on the '95 SLX 780 and with
the chokes removed and the bores cleaned up I ended up with
105 main / 1 turn
90 lo / 1 turn
2.5 / 95grm

This worked real well for us. Didn't bog out of the hole so bad.

I have a '95 SLX 780 (60 hrs) that is beginning to bog out of the hole.
Haven't had a tune-up in awhile, but do keep the plugs changed regularly.
Is there something I can do myself (not very mechanically inclined) to fix
the problem?

thanks guys- according to the factory tach- this boat won't idle that
slow regardless of the needle setting- that's what had me curious-
thanks again!

Fagan,
Main jet #90. Pilot jet #75. High speed screw 1 turn out for the mag carb,
1/2 out for the center, 3/4 out for the pto. Low speed screw 1/2 turn out on
all the carbs. Idle speed in water between 1200 and 1300 rpm. Needle and
seat pop off pressure 10-18 psi. These are stock ski settings according to
the factory service manual.

While we are discussing Polaris carb settings,
How about a '96 780cc 3 cyl??? I think its a slx
My bud has one, and got his settings all mixed up.

Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks!

that's right, my slt750 idles in the water about 1500, but I have to be
careful out of the water cause it runs 3K

HarryK has a great package for that motor. My slt570 stock, ran about
47mph at 6200 or so rpm

then I leaned on it
1. groupk sleeper kit
2. hot seat water box
3. 6 degree pump wedge
4. Factory Polaris FA update kit (manditory!! the old one sucks)
5. pre-mix 40 to 1
6. 96 slt 750 ride plate
7. R&D top loader intake
8. Hot seat reed spacer kit
9 scat 13/18 swirl

results were 6730 @ 54.3 mph and very (read faster that a sleeper
blaster
2) quick to get there. It beats the sltx out of the hole, and only gives
up a little on the top. On a pump gas , 400 hour boat. that has been
abused for over 4 years

I have been wanting to upgrade my three seater to an xll, but the wife
and kids will NOT let me sell the slt )c; I would recommend this setup
without reservation!
