Hey guys I'm pulling the motor on my 96xp I got it all apart but the rod that hooks to the impellor. How do I make it slide out of there or come free to pull motor out.
 
I guess you are talking about the drive shaft. You'll need to pull the pump.

It is the part that comes out of the motor and out of the seadoo having that lil rubber boot over it I have the motor completely ready to come out other tan getting it out.
 
Hopefully you have a service manual, as it has detailed proceedure & pics, ect. You will need to remove the jetpump. Align the engine when
you re-install your engine. Likely the driveshaft will come out when you pull the pump back from the transom.
You can put a vise-wrench on the driveshaft and tap it back if the d-shaft sticks in the PTO. Roll it on a flat surface to determine if the shaft is straight or not. The '96XP service manual is a GOOD FRIEND!

INSIDE: remove the clamp on DS at PTO. Remove large supply hose & two small syphon hoses from JP thru-hull tubes.
disconnect the carbone ring by pushing foerward with thumbs on ring to reveal ring clip and remove that.
OUTSIDE: remove steering bolt from steering nozzel, remove the four nuts-lock rings-flat washers from transom studs.
gently wriggle pump with a bar to loosn pump and pull off. These sometimes are hard to get because of the silicome
at the pumps tru-hull tubes (prevents water intrusion). If thats the case, use a pump puller as detailed in shop service manual.

I don't have a manual but will get one for the install if I can just get this one out. So I pulled the jet pump cone cover n now what ?
 
You can unbolt the front motor mount then slide the motor forward...but the pump has to come out anyways to align the new motor.
