How can you tell if there is damage to the case? My bearing started going bad, I noticed when I lost some top end speed but engine starts and runs fine with pump removed. I haven’t rebuild pump yet.
I got a 08 STX15F that's hydro locking. Just replaced all the valves in it. The cam chain tensioner broke. So took it out to test drive and UT hydrolocked on me. Now turns out I had the wrong jetpump housing on it. I had a 2012 on it. Could that cause anythinh?
Thank you for explaining, I did not realize from other videos that KP kit protects engine!
Is this a issue with a 2020 STX 160 LX
is that the same shaft as the ultra 300 ?
hello.
I also have a jet ski. stx-15f
I can't start because of the impeller. The video helped. In Kore
Great explanation!

When you pull the pump check the PTO for end play on the crank shaft.

What years did this affect and typically after how many hours?
Can i check these in the wet bike?
Is this an issue with a 2022 STX?
Link to KP kit?
Went ahead and added the link to the video description, but here’s the link!

@@SEsGarage thanks!
How can you tell if the jet pump bearings are failing? Any specific signs?
Metallic noise from the pump area, loss of rpm. Realistically you’re going to want to pull the pump and expect at least once per season
@@SEsGarage Thanks for your advice. One more question, any idea where to find the engine diagnostic connector and what it looks like??
Rattling noise in the back and notable decrease in power what can cause this 2010 STX15f
I’d pull that pump and inspect before you damage the engine!
I have a 2014 Kawasaki ultra lx. Does mine have this problem too? How good is the reliability of this model. It only has 85 hours..
No because your year has the updated bearing setup in the pump to prevent this.
@Gmtail what years had the bad bearings?
Is this an issue with the 2015?
Yes!
