Hi, I had an issue that I couldn’t get over 3.5-4K RPM. On my last test it jumped up in RPMs (full range) but lost all power. No noticeable forward or reverse motion. Paddle back to shore found what looked like old, stiff electrical tape wrapped around the impeller. Removed it and still no forward or reverse. My question is: impeller/wear ring or could it be pulling air from engine compartment. Impeller does look chewed up but would I lose all motion?

Thanks in advance
Frank
 
Perhaps both your wear ring and prop are messed. I like to get a very powerful flashlight, crawl under the boat, and look into the pump from the front of the intake grate. I also of course look into the Venturi from the back. if I am not sure, I just pull the pump.
