- Our buddy Chris came to us with a classic problem: his 2008 Sea Doo GTI 155 SE personal watercraft jetski had lost most of its power after it sucked up some rocks near shore. We pulled the pump, replaced his wear ring and he was back on the water in no time!

Thanks for the vid, sucked a rock in yesterday and was expecting a serious repair bill. All back in one piece now, saved me a small fortune cheers
Not only are your videos super helpful, but you have been responding to almost every comment for the last 6 years. That speaks volumes of your character and commitment to the ski community, Unlike most of the other fruit loops who make vid and move on. I believe I'll subscribe. 👍
Thanks for the kind words, Kevin!
you guys make getting that wear ring out so damn easy!!
Still love the quality of your work, top notch and basically perfect.
Thanks! These types of comments really help to keep us motivated!
Quality Wrenching and Repair. Glad to see Non Hammer Mechanics.
Yep, you need the right tools for the job ...
Have to say great video. Straight to the point
You guys make great videos! Well done and keep it up!
Job well done guys! I learned a lot from you shared videos on how to fix impeller.
Thanks, Fred!
Great videos guys!
Top work chaps.
great video boys
You can take a stuck rock out of the impeller simply by hand cranking the engine in reverse. The impeller will also reverse and let go of its grip on the rock, and you can just push it out. Much simpler, MUCH faster, and it will save your day out in the water as you can be back in and riding under 15 minutes.
Thanks for the tip, but don't you run the risk of loosening the impeller? We have experienced this issue under normal riding conditions (with one of our riding buddies), so that would be a concern of ours, especially if it's really jammed in.
Lesson learned
Muy buenos videos amigo.
That happened to me yesterday on my 1995 SeaDoo HX. Had to take the it apart and tap the impeller in the opposite direction with a small hammer and the rock dropped out. It was the size of a small dill pickle!
Yikes. One dill pickle-sized rock can ruin your whole afternoon! Thanks for your comment.
Great video.
What type of grease or oil are you using inside the impeller cone ??
Jet pump bearing grease from Sea-Doo.
@@3ftDeepChannel … OK, so I’m getting conflicting facts about it. I’m hearing that it’s actually lubricating oil from SeaDoo/BRP that goes into a filler hole on the Venturi Cone and others are saying that it’s just grease rather. Are you able to clarify that up for me ?
If you have any doubt, check out Sea-Doo’s parts catalog. Find your machine and then look up the parts diagram for your jet pump. It’ll show what goes in there. Here’s the link: shop.sea-doo.com/ca/en/shop/sales/parts/?aribrand=SEA_DOO_EN_CA_CAD
If it’s not shown in there, it’ll be specified in the Shop Manual for your machine. You can also call your dealer and ask what it shows on their system.
@@3ftDeepChannel Thank you so much for all your help and guidance so far… Yeah I need to look at getting a shop manual for my GTI SE 170
I did the Same thing with a rock. Always wondered if it is possible to bend the driveshaft? Because mine has got a vibration that just doesn't seem right.
It’s very difficult to bend the driveshaft. More likely there’s still some thing in the pump, but it also possible to strip the splines on the driveshaft. Hopefully not.
If the rock is in past the impeller and too big to come out the exhaust end then you can try knocking the rock loose and then working it toward the intake side of the impeller again. It has to go out the same way it came in right? I used 2 hangers to work the rock toward a spot against the impeller where I could reach through the intake side of the impeller with my fingers and grabbed it. Worth a shot before disassembling the entire pump
Usually. Coat hangers aren’t normally stiff enough to do much. The Impeller Jam Removal Tool works great for that stuff 99/100 times. Thanks for your comment.
I had three rocks lodged in my rxtx300 and eventually got them out without taking everything apart. A little luck with a little patience and friends got me back out on the water and taking my frustrations out on the supercharger 😂
@@3ftDeepChannel …What is this “Impeller Jam Removal Tool” ??
Here it is: th-cam.com/video/91gCIT1V7tA/w-d-xo.html
Drill bit through the rock causing it to crumble? Literally just a random idea... would that work?
The problem would be getting a good start on the rock. It would most likely slip and start damaging your wear ring or pump.
Get creative! It’s possible that can work… pretty much try anything 👍🏻
Within reason, of course.
How often should these be checked? And how much should it cost?
You should check your impeller after every ride, but you will likely know when you have something stuck. The performance will drop catastrophically and it will shutter. You should be able to do these types of repairs yourself, when necessary.
You guys are great thanks for the excellent video!
what do you guys say about stainless steel wear rings? good or bad?
Bad, in my opinion. The wear ring is a sacrificial part. If there's any contact between the ring and the impeller I'd rather have the $90 wear ring go than the $395 impeller.
How do we know when is the impeller damaged too much?
You can usually get a good look at it through the intake grate, and you can also check out part of it through the rear pump. Alternatively, you can do a good inspection when you remove the pump for servicing.
From what I've read, to much vibration is a sign of to much damage to the impeller
Is it ok to park jetski to beach? I always scare to park to beach because of the fear of stuck sand inside bottom....
Yes, it is OK to pull it up onto a nice sandy beach. But when approaching you need to turn off your engine when the water is still 3 feet deep, and don’t start it back up again until it is at least 3 feet deep.
@@3ftDeepChannel Alright, thanks for the clarification.
Hi, my friend, how are you? I have a Jet Ski 1300 Yamaha but its speed is weak. I do not know how to solve it. Please help me.
Most likely it's the wear ring. Check the condition of the wear ring and if it's worn or damaged, replace it.
3ftDeep I thank you my dear friend for your response. Do you have a picture of the holidays so I can replace it?
3ftDeep
Can you send a picture of this thing to fix the holidays and replace it
I'm not sure what you mean. But we show how to replace the wear ring in the video. Good luck.
I have a 2010 rxt 260 rebuild engine new computer new both wore harnesses new rebuilt supercharger why won't it get no faster than 45 but ribs up on the trailer 7500 RPMs anything would help me I'd appreciate it
Please see my response to your question in your other posting.
How many hours did it took for all that?
Just over an hour
Bravo continu , tes vidéo sont très intéressantes ;-)
Merci
Would this job be the same on a 2018 RXTX 300
Unfortunately, no. You'd need to remove the iBR for one thing. But the principles are the same. With our impeller tool (see th-cam.com/video/91gCIT1V7tA/w-d-xo.html), most likely you'd be able to remove it through the intake grate. It's rare to get it jammed in as tight as it was for us.
Good thing you couldn’t get the rock out, that wear ring was machined by that cube!
Yep, and that's the cause of a big decrease in performance for a lot of machines.
What are the sizes for the bolts
They vary depending on the year and model of your machine. Check Sea-Doo's parts section of their website out to find out which bolts your machine uses.
How do u not screw up the impeller when you’re filling it
We took very little material off. We are just cleaning up the edge.
Like how do u know how much material to take off
where ya located. i need this done to mine..
We're in White Rock, British Columbia, but unfortunately we only work on our own machines (except for rare exceptions).
If you've got something in your pump, try making our impeller jam removal tool. If that won't do the trick, you only need a few sockets and an extension to do this job. Good luck.
And all the armchair experts bleat on about fitting a stainless wear ring. Perfect if you want to replace the impellor and have a buckled wear ring.
Todos felicidades
Gracias
Overkill to remove that rock, fail!
He tried, then we tried ...then we took out the big guns.
Love how they make it look like a 5 minute job… keeps people buying skis. LOL
We have to admit, we try to edit these jobs down to 5 minutes, while still showing all the steps in detail so we cut out all the chatting, cursing and stripping of screws. We don’t have any incentive to get people to buy skis, though. Just trying to help out those who already have them.
Soooo many work for just a small rock, scary
Yes, but that’s the price you pay for fun!
My yamaha gp 1300 r sucked in a rock and i replaced impeller and try to started and it wont start it sounds like it still jammed I didn’t replace a ring can u help me
It could be that your wear ring is warped, twisted, or is frayed. Take a look carefully at it and your pump for other trapped debris. It should spin freely when disconnected from the drive shaft. Good luck.
no loctite on the pump bolts?
No, not when they have nylon lock nuts.
why the name 3 ft deep
When you’re launching a PWC from the shore, that’s the depth at which you can safely fire up your engine.
@@3ftDeepChannel okay just curious
Our buddy Vesa could do this in 5 mintues.
Vesa is clearly very talented.
