Just changed the wear ring on my ‘03 GTX (recently bought used, still finding my way around it).
The green impeller boot/ring seems to just be sitting up against the impeller— there’s no threads or set screw or anything to keep it from sliding away from the impeller. What am I missing?
My 2008 GTI has a plastic boot that screws in, and filled with grease, so I was expecting something similar.
Parts diagram indicates two things there, and I only see one. Instructions for reassembly only say “insert a new boot 2 and ring 3 to impeller.” Nothing about torque, reverse thread, whatever.
Thoughts?
Two pics are of boot slid forward and back.
