Please see my other post regarding my test run results.
Long story short, I am getting an intermittant loud/rattle vibration noise in and out of the water while at idle.
I removed the pump and changed all the bearings yesterday and the problem is still there. While I had it apart, I noticed my cone does not have any springs, wedges, pusher, etc.
It just has a plastic post formed in the center of the housing. The 96 service manual shows that there should be a tensioner. But the 96 parts catalog doesn't show them.
It also looks like the design changed in 97. That parts catalog shows a different cone part number, plus lists a pusher and a spring.
Maybe this is where the problem is. Any thoughts?
I am thinking of retrofitting the 97 design as of now. I have heard the later model doos are quieter. Any other suggestions on a compatible cone?
