The ideal clearance between an outboard jet's impeller and liner is between 0.025 in and 0.035 in NOT 0.25 or 0.35. Please correct me if I'm hearing this wrong.
Thanks Rob! Wish I would have had this a few years ago. One thing I see with my 420 is it planes nice but when I hit a skinny section of water the bow will suck down and start plowing. Is this normal?
Great video. Thank you. Do you have a web site - I am interested in purchasing some equipment you spoke about. I am in Alberta, where are you located. Michael l
I am not sure if they made a flush adapter hole on your pump Q. Have a look and see if there is another bolt in between the grease fitting hose ends. or email me at Rob.bryce@telus.net for more info
reading the outboard diagrams from outboard jets it should be sharpened with the bottom having the bevel or once off and flipped over the top. you described it the opposite. i have sharpened mine for 10 years the way you described it and now the other way as advertised and see zero difference in performance. but i can say its much easier to put the bevel on the bottom edge
It's just common sense. Why would you want the beveled edge on the bottom, therefore directing water downwards? If you have the angle facing up it will direct water upwards toward the pump.
@@eggrolll i can agree with you. like i said been doing it that way for many years. Now have been doing the other recommend way and see zero performance difference but the way they recommend is much easier to file.
Thanks so much for putting this together Rob. Lots of notes taken for my first trip this spring
Thanks so much for posting this. Lots of useful information.
Very good to ten tips. Very informative enjoyed it.
Great tips thanks

good catch You got it correct
Jesus, there's more f****** maintenance involved in these Jet outboards than there is keeping a Harley-Davidson running😂😂😂... Thanks for posting 👍👍👍
Off topic question but what year is that motor? Love your videos!

That’s normal
That’s the only time mine plows water as it builds a layer of water below the boat in skinny water
It sure slows the boat down, I hate losing speed when it gets skinny!

Hey Rob, do you sell flanged liners for small series jets?
Yes I do sell the small flanged liners and stud kits
OK good to know I will probably need one this spring/summer. What's the price on that?
I think about $75 for liner ans $450 for the poly shoe
OK thank you very much. Do you have a website to order from?

Where do you get your SS impellers
I sell them
What size are you looking for
