Need Help

Okay so I just got done cleaning my rave valves, and I started the seadoo to see if it ran, and I heard an odd noise about 20 seconds after starting it, and instantly turned it off, I opened up the rave valves again, and I noticed there was a little chip in the valve, I mean it's tiny, and I also noticed that the little metal things that keep the rave valve up were gone.

Do you think any damage is done? Please I need help.

And if so, what can be done to fix it.

I'm stupid for not noticing those things that hold it up were gone to begin with.

And those metal pieces that hold it up, did not fall in.

What metal things that hold the valve up?

You did put the valve back in with the word TOP up right?

 

[clmboating]

yes and the word top was upside down.

The things that hold it upside, I'm referring to like the circle metal piece that's over by the threads on the rave valve, those that hold it up above the discs inside, those weren't on there and it was just sitting inside, nothing was holding it.

No big pieces of anything got inside the hole, but I put a flash light down in there, and I couldn't see any damage done.

Do you think I could get away with just buying a new rave valve?

I already replaced everything (new gasket, new bellows, new piston).

OK, tell me what part #'s your missing?

 

[clmboating]

Part # 9, and the rave valve is broken on the circular part.

Jeez, well I would just get a new valve and o-ring (#4)

 

[clmboating]

I will do just that!

Do you think that odd noise I heard for a split second could be a chipped piston or something?

Don't wanna ruin the engine by running it with a messed up piston.

Just take a closer look thru the rave slot, you should be able to see in there.
