wear ring

This past weekend I replaced my wear ring because the old one was badly damaged (as seen below!)and I was getting pretty bad cavitation. I had no problem getting the old one off and putting the new one on. I did not remove the impeller. I took my jet ski (1998 gti) out for a test run this...

First off i am like stated in other posts I am some what new. I just bought this boat two weeks ago so I don't have much experience. I have looked below when i bought it and it looks pretty torn up. I know i need a new intake grate but what i am wondering is if i should get a new impeller and...

So here's the deal: got a 155 mm stainless sleeved wear ring with a 159 mm impeller for my rxp-x. One option, get the smaller impeller to fit the wear ring, as it's already in, or fight to get the right wear ring, and use the 159 mm impeller. Also, should I stick with the 15/21 I bought, or opt...

I have cavitation problems in my starboard 717. After a lot of reading, I know that the 2 most likely culprits are the wear ring and the carbon ring, in my case the carbon ring seems more likely. A couple of questions for the more experienced folks would help me do this properly... Do I...

Here is my problem... I have an 06 seadoo Wake with 40 hours on it. I have had wear ring problems since day one. About every 8-10 hours the seadoo starts to cavitate and loose top end speed. Every time we take back to the dealer they say the wear ring is shot. We get it replaced and it...

My first season. 2008 Challenger 180 with 23 hours. From the looks of it, it appears that the subject of "cavitation" is quite a popular one. Just got it back last week from the dealer, where they replaced the fuel pump, wear ring, & impeller. It sounds like there are many interpretations as...

i ordered a wear ring from sbt and it literally fell right into the jet pump so i ordered another but you still dont have to use a press to get it in although it is snug is it ok to use this wear ring or what should i do

I am removing my jet pump to replace my wear ring on my 96' GTI. to remove the pump from the hull i need to remove the bailer pickup tubes and the water inlet tubes. With what, and how do I do this? THe pickup tubes look like they are stuck into the fiber glass. seems hard to remove ..yet i am...

hey all, I bought my first used seadoo a 1997 bombadier GTX and on my first outing, sucked a towstrap into the jet. I removed it and The impeller did not seemed damaged, so other then some scratching on the fiberglass everything seemed fine. After I running it awhile it seemed like it took...

The wait was over and a 2003 Sportster Vtec 155HP found its way to my driveway this weekend - and what a weekend to be on the water :hurray:. It was great! Of course, there's the learning curve of the jetboat - low speed driving will take some getting used to. There was a repair -- what's a...

After i took my 96 GTI off a 3 foot wave it began to run like sh**. If you punch full throttle at a dead stop you hear the engine revving(slightly higher pitched revving then normal) but there is little to no propulsion. If you let off a little, it will pick up and go and you can "baby" it into...

Hello, I have a 1996 SP seadoo. I bought this used and I have owned this for 2.5 years. About mid summer of last year I noticed a performance issue while at the lake. I noticed that when taking off, the ski seems to just sit in the water and is sluggish to take off. The engine revs up, and...
