1999 GTX Seadoo
After getting a quote from a local mechanic, I was not willing to pay $1200 for a jet pump replacement.
Basically the compartment filled halfway with water one day on the lake. After I drained it I tried starting it again and heard a LOUD screech from the back...I mean ear piercing loud. After I took it out I noticed the cone to my impeller was missing. Obviously the impeller was not getting any oil through it. Would that cause the loud screech? The area where the cone covers has some rust and the impeller will not turn at all by hand. I realize I may have a couple things to replace now. Anyone have tips on how I should go about this? I am pretty handy so I'd rather not take it into the shop. Thanks!
Also wanted to add...the seadoo would crank for about 2-3 seconds while pushing the throttle. Then the loud screech would come and the ski dies.
