Hi Everyone,
I just recently picked up a 2004 Speedster, and took it out tubing last weekend. Long story short, the tube rope got sucked into the impeller and wrapped itself around the driveshaft. I was able to get most of it out, but there is a small section that is between the driveshaft and the boat, and goes into the black grommet or seal that goes into the engine bay.
I was able to cut it and the driveshaft moves freely, but I can't figure out how to get the rest of it out unless I pull the jet assembly and driveshaft all the way out. Is this needed? What is inside that black seal? Any recommendations for me? I don't have any pictures, but I can get some tomorrow if needed.
Thanks for all the help! I will be signing up for a premium membership this afternoon today as well.
