I could not find a place that sells that impeller. Do they make water shutters and boots out of better material? I hate replacing them. Thank you for the video.
@randybrown9490 can't really help you there. I did a Google search and found that it is a discontinued model from Globe Marine Products. Maybe someone has one on ebay???
Any help is appreciated. We just finished installing a new impeller and put it all back together and installed back to the motor. But no water is coming out the exhaust and running through the engine now… we had water before taking it apart. Now we have nothing. With no water leaking anywhere either…. Any ideas?
It's easier to leave that bracket on the impeller housing and take it off after you get the pump out. You can also leave that pulley on the bracket. Also, an easy way to get the impeller into the housing is to use a hose clamp. Get the fins going in the same direction and tighten the clamp. Then just set the impeller in the pump housing and push it through the clamp.
Just wondering how the saddle bags performed on your longer trip? Have 21L and 30L bag and considering adding these saddles. Thanks for your time. @@duboisdl
Have you gotten your 2022 yet? I saw this sled up for sale at end of last season so figured you had another on order. If so we would love a video of whatever it is!
I love the technology,But too much technology doesn't fit into the snowmobile scenario too well, Time! One break down could ruin a whole season! The less electrical crap on a snowmobile the better the chance of a nice long season 😆😆 Especially with sensors mounted in the suspension tunnels and control arms..
hey mate... i know 2013 is some time behind^^ but you missed one part in that vid... asking myself how to make sure that the belt has correct/speziefied tension. after putting it in again... do you set marks on the engine? would love to get an answer ;) need to change imp on a mag350 mpi...
At 190 horse this mach z falls short. The cats and sidewinders have 200 horse plus. Not enough to beat cat or yamaha. Once again skidoo has fallen short of the mark, which they have been doing for some time now. I switched from skidoo to polaris. Soon polaris will own the sled market just like the utv and atv market.
It is always amazing when some one such as this goes out of there way to help and assist others. Well done and thank you. But I do need to point out an obvious step that was missed. The original damaged impeller was missing sections of blades! These are now floating around somewhere in the cooling system! These need to be found and removed or water flow may very well be restricted causing further over heating and damage.
The line from my toilet to my back water tank is clogged. Your video was very helpful to show how I can access it. Do you have a video or pics showing the hose into the black water tank?
Yeah, where Mercrusier put the raw water pump can be a nightmare. Most Volvo’s, Crusaders and Marine Power’s only take a few minutes. Change the impeller at least every two years from the time of the install regardless of storage or running hours. If you went too long you may have lots of problems. If you have an oil cooler, much of the impeller debris may be bunched up there. Other places are fuel cooling, small cylinder head passageways and heat exchanger on close systems. Hopefully it went through and out. To lube the impeller, never use petroleum based products, silicone grease is best. Some have used vegetable oil and dish soap, but I can’t judge those.
I used the RAM mount and it is NOT hardwired. I don't believe that you can or would want to hardwire a spot device. When I ride with friends, i keep it in the mound. When I ride by myself, I keep it in my coat pocket.
that sensor behind the harmonic balancer is the crankshaft position sensor. Fantastic video, really good camera work and lighting, easy to follow. With the shortage of marine mechanics nationwide these videos are the only things helping owners of older boats to keep them going!
Do the hand guards work ok with the high windshield? What do you have to color your windshield like that? Do the hand guard lights have a separate switch or are they always on with the main headlight? Love the sled. I have one coming next week so I am eyeing your great work.
Hand guards work fine,they don't hit the windshield at all. Yes I put the lights on a separate switch and they are wired to the battery side of the started solenoid....that way I can turn them on at night when the sled is off.
@@duboisdl What are the handguards you have on your sled? Model? And what are the light son the handguards? Model? Thanks again. Is it easy to wire the way you did?
@@keithbarrett1624 Handguards are the SkiDoo transparent guards. The LED lights are Hi-Density Low Profile LED Light Strips from Boogey lights. For wiring, I tapped into the battery side of the starter solenoid under the front of the seat to a multiple fuse power block that I placed in the glove box. From there, I powered my Red LED's and Rigid driving lights.
I know you made this video quite a few years ago, but thanks for taking the time to do it!! I picked up a 290 Amberjack last fall, and want to replace the impellers on both engines so i know they are good. This video really helped me prepare for how to tackle this job.
Arundel, Maine, Drone, because I want to ..................................................trying to get my camera settings right so this is my baseline.
Good walk around. I seen one identical to this at a local dealership today. You have yours set up very nicely. PS theirs over 1' of snow on the ground in northern ME. I've been riding my sled around for the last week lol. Just waiting on the trails to get groomed!!
Great video but I can't seem to find that pn impeller.
That video is over 9 years old. That part number is no longer available. I don't know what the replacement number is as I no longer own that boat.
The Run dry impeller from Globe Marine has been discontinued. Has anyone found a replacement?
I could not find a place that sells that impeller. Do they make water shutters and boots out of better material? I hate replacing them. Thank you for the video.
Gosh, that was over 12ish years ago I'm sure that any dealer that sells your make of boat would be able to provide a part number.
I’m talking about the run dry Globe impeller.

But no water is coming out the exhaust and running through the engine now… we had water before taking it apart. Now we have nothing. With no water leaking anywhere either…. Any ideas?
I have done the same but on the way putting it back, the pump is wobbling. Any trick to help with alignment?

how are the saddle bags?
They work pretty good. I've got them installed on my Mach Z now and will be doing a saddlebag trip next week to fully test them out.
Just wondering how the saddle bags performed on your longer trip? Have 21L and 30L bag and considering adding these saddles. Thanks for your time. @@duboisdl

I got my Mach Z in early December. Have not had time to do a video and a bunch of them out there already. Not sure I could add anything.
Love all the addons
What kind of beamtech bulbs?
Nice bumper. Where you get it
It's a BRP accessory
May I share on our Facebook/Inst??
Yes you may.
This is awesome!

This would be the only sled to make me a 4-stroke guy.
Yes I ageee. But they should of used a 2 stroke. Way more buyers

Not true ..... wrong here they sell 5 times more BRP compare to polasrap
And it even has a hole shot button lol Hit the button Rev it up full blast let er go.
We had open trails for 14 days. Wish I could use this sled, but totally impractical.
Man, two of these would look some good in my garage...but at 22k CDN, that isn't gonna happen any time soon lol
Just got one and its 28k in total
Sick ride , can’t wait for mine to come
That sled looks amazing
If only it has a two stroke triple in it
Snow check!!!!!!!
$19,995.99
$18k in Wisconsin, still ridiculous if you ask me.
thank you for the video..excellent..wow....what makes it even harder is space to work with. thats what I am afraid of.

Save your money and keep those bulbs, the SII bulbs cost way too much for the same light pattern. I have the SII, and will never buy them again,
The line from my toilet to my back water tank is clogged. Your video was very helpful to show how I can access it. Do you have a video or pics showing the hose into the black water tank?
Sorry, I do not. Did you try running water into the outside part of the waste hose?
so you just use poli strip to remove old stuff?
Yes, with a lot of elbow grease. The only reason I stripped it all was because I wanted to wet sand the underlying gel coat.

Didn't see a freaking thing that you did on it!
Is that the stock windshield
Yes......stock for a Renegade.
Sharp sled. Running a 900 Ace Skandic. Maybe a Turbo Skandic would be awesome. 24” Track. This motor sounds good.
what mount did you use for the spot device? Did you hardwire that as well?
I used the RAM mount and it is NOT hardwired. I don't believe that you can or would want to hardwire a spot device. When I ride with friends, i keep it in the mound. When I ride by myself, I keep it in my coat pocket.
@@duboisdl Great to know. Thank you. Does it cost money to have it activated?
@@keithbarrett1624 There is a monthly/yearly charge....depending on what type of device you have. You can check out the info at findmespot.com
DO NOT FORGET to plug the intake hose (bigger hose) with a 1 7/8 stopper if you are doing this in a slip or you will sink your boat :)
use 1 zip tie around the new impeller wheel to scrunch it down then coat the housing with soapy water, slide it in and cut the zip tie
yep
that sensor behind the harmonic balancer is the crankshaft position sensor. Fantastic video, really good camera work and lighting, easy to follow. With the shortage of marine mechanics nationwide these videos are the only things helping owners of older boats to keep them going!
Another well produced useless video with a terrible sound track. WTF are you doing...care to fill us in?
Look at the title........can't please everyone!!!
I like the red studs on the track.
I like your black gas caddy you mind telling more info on it and were I can find thanks
I had it rhino lined at a local shop
ok thank you

Hello... where???? +(Umm, how???? -or why????)
Arundel, Maine, Drone, because I want to ..................................................trying to get my camera settings right so this is my baseline.
Which Garmin model GPS did you install? No issues when really cold?
2797....I've had it for 3 years and have not had any issues.
I think you have your saddle bags on backwards - swap them to the opposite sides.
Hey Dan, lookin good... Mine will be in 2nd week of Dec...fingers crossed...see you @MCL
Dude that's awesome, what did you buy?
Good walk around. I seen one identical to this at a local dealership today. You have yours set up very nicely. PS theirs over 1' of snow on the ground in northern ME. I've been riding my sled around for the last week lol. Just waiting on the trails to get groomed!!
Sweet Dan, the bumper is pretty badass.
where did you find the accessories plug for power
What exactly are you asking? The 12v power plug itself or the plug where it plugs into?
