Hello, new to PWCs, so forgive my lack of knowledge. The carbon seal on my 2002 GTI 720cc was chattering when I ran it on the trailer. (20 seconds or less at a time). When it was running, the seal hat, or wear ring was staying stationary with the carbon ring instead of turning with the driveshaft. Boot and c-clip were in the right location based on my research.
I removed the jet pump and driveshaft, and everything looks to be in good shape, however the seal hat rotated on the driveshaft without much resistance when I slipped it back on. Are the seal hat rubber o-rings the only thing mating it to the drive shaft? If so, do I just need to do a carbon seal kit to fix?
Many thanks.
