98 GTI problems

[svt_gEEk]

I was out on the water Sunday crusing along at about 35-40mph on my 98 GTI when all of a sudden the engine starts vibrating harshly and I lost thrust out of the jet pump. I let off the gas immediately and let it idle for a second and started easing back into it, at about 5 mph it was fine but anything other than that the engine would start vibrating again and you could feel the loss of thrust. Any ideas?

you sucked something into the pump. It probably fell out by now.
