I think this type of video would benefit from a close up of the items you are working on rather then having yourself in the picture and slow down on the key points I know it's a awkward way of working but it would greatly help the viewers trying to learn from your video keep up the great work thanks
You know, I was doing research when making this video, and there used to be several videos on swapping the pump. They are all gone! How odd is that? I guess I will put that on the list. :-)
love your repair tips. never owned a jet ski and don't plan on it at age 66. have rode a couple rentals. Still appreciate your information will pass along to younger relatives and friends that own them.
Good information to have specially these days when everything keeps getting more expensive. I don't have a jet sky or anything like that but it's still good to know that if you can find alternatives for parts like that fuel pump if people look around they can probably find alternatives for things they might need.
I noticed eBay has sold about 10 of them in the last 24 hours which probably has a lot to do with you posting this video. I don’t need one but just ordered one to put on the shelf for when the time comes. Thank you for posting this video!
G'day Jimmy can I suggest you use feeler gauges to slip under the clips the unit will slide apart without the risk of breaking clips. Thanks for the content and the effort to produce it .. not criticizing Jimmy but I agree with Timelliott1135 .. take care Mate.
A trick I use to get the pumps apart, I slide a cut off ziptie end under the tabs after you pop them up to stop them from locking back down. They act as a nice ramp to slide the plastic apart. And instead of a hose clamp to hold the pumps together I use a ziptie or lock wire. And --> if you are going to store your pumps or even your toys for a long period of time I advocate adding a minor amount of Two cycle oil to the gas. As the gas evaporates or degrades the two stroke oil acts as a protective barrier and lubricant.
Wonderful / helpful video. This together with your video on where and how to yank the assembly from the tank made this relatively easy. However, I spent about 2 hours tryig to figure out why my updated assembly (replaced the pump motor) wouldn't push any gas... Turns out my black and blue wires are crossed. Black is positive and blue is negative. I confirmed this watching your video closely, and sure enough, my black is in the plug position where your blue wire is and vice-versa. Switched the wires and back in business. Hopefully this helps someone and saves some head scratching....
Yep, same deal on motorcycles as far as having the fuel light come on when you have an in-tank pump. If you don't pull into the next gas station and fill it up you'll eventually burn out the pump. They are rubber paddle pumps just like the raw water cooling pump on an boat motor and just like those, when you run them dry, you tear up the rubber paddle and shred it up. You might be forgiven once or twice if your shut it down in time. Be careful of new old stock pumps from the first decade of this century and earlier as many did not withstand ethanol so the alcohol would start dissolving the rubber paddle inside and cause fuel issues especially on fuel injected motors due to the higher fuel pressures they run at. Aprilia, MotoGuzzi and perhaps Ducati along with others had to replace a lot of fuel pumps back then due to this. And some because they kept the stock numbers for the defective pumps active in the parts catalogue ended up installing a new defective pump when doing the recall service. It was a mess. If you end up purchasing a garage queen bike, etc from about 2011 and earlier and have fuel pump issues check for recalls and service bulletins on them as you may still be able to get a free pump replacement due to this issue. Best!
@@jetskijim007 my 2019 hasn’t run at full capacity for 2 years because of “quantums” regulators… if it’s not the pump it’s the regulator. I keep taking it to the same repair shop for the same result. Do you know of any shops in Havasu that can legitimately fix my SXR?
At least 3 years. I havent seen one fail yet. As for the filter, i would like to say no, but it is a similar material, so i would think they are just as easily plugged.
Fuel pumps are the number one downfall of this particular ski, sometimes changing two or three out per season. Finding an affordable option is a good score!
@jetskijim, are these pumps the same length as the stock ones? It looks a little shorter in the video. I definitely don't need less range. Also, so you have a source for that secondary filter on the inside?
The fuel pump is on the back of the carburetor, there is a hose that is the same material as fuel line that sends pulses from the crank going up and down from the engine case to the carb. That is the fuel pump. It is mechanical, not electric.
Why don't you spend a few hours and rig up a dedicated test stand..to use for pump, injectors, etc....?...save some squirrels..or mishaps....do appreciate the topics....freakin people cryin they ain't gettin their CEO pay, stock profits gonna be whining to tubish bout this tho...best to keep things on the down low bout financial stuff....democrats gonna make another law...
Massively helpful for the SXR 1500 community! Thank you.

Thank you, I love the feedback, and I will work on that. :-)
This video is so helpful glad you found such a cheap solution!
Thanks for the video, and way to make one on taking out the pump and reinstalling? Thanks for the hard work Jim

Good video Jimmy! I enjoy watching your videos. You know I have never ridden a Jet Ski ever! Maybe someday.
You’d love it! His dad rides when comes out.

Amazon just sold one too. I just bought one to put on my shelf.
Awesome and outstanding.Thanks for sharing and taking us along.

It's a bit tricky pulling these out of the fuel tank the first time, but once you have done it once, not as bad.
You’re a life saver. Can you post the link on were you got the after market pump? Also, when can we expect a swapping video?
Lol. There use to be 3 videos out there on how to do it. They all seem to have been removed. Yes, i am working on one now. :-)

You’re so nice! ❤❤❤❤
Gret tip with the aftermarket pump.
500 cc (a.k.a. 0,5 l) in 12 seconds equals 150 l/h per hour, not 80.
0,5 l * 3600 s / 12 s = 150 l
Thank you, I knew someone would step up and do the math. :-)
Man that looks like exact same pump on My Kawi KRX 1000 sxs jus got replaced under warranty in Havasu they invoiced Kawi around 900.00 crazy
How do you find the pump ? That part number doesn’t work
Any recommendations on someone in Lake Havasu to install this pump? Thank you. 🙏
ever have an issue with an after market pump blowing your ecu
No, but that sounds aweful.
How long do these pumps last? Also, is the bottom filter like the stock Kawasaki filter that plugs up after 20-25 hours?
At least 3 years. I havent seen one fail yet. As for the filter, i would like to say no, but it is a similar material, so i would think they are just as easily plugged.
Fuel pumps are the number one downfall of this particular ski, sometimes changing two or three out per season. Finding an affordable option is a good score!
Can you share me where to purchase the secondary filter?
You bet. Go to highflowfuel.com and type in this part number: HFP-F114 QFS
@@jetskijim007 Thank you very much
@jetskijim, are these pumps the same length as the stock ones? It looks a little shorter in the video. I definitely don't need less range. Also, so you have a source for that secondary filter on the inside?
Yes, exactly the same. No, i don't sell them. Quantum fuel systems sell them. :-)
Do you have a part number quantum filter?
Jim is there a fuel pump in a 1991 yahama wave runner?
The fuel pump is on the back of the carburetor, there is a hose that is the same material as fuel line that sends pulses from the crank going up and down from the engine case to the carb. That is the fuel pump. It is mechanical, not electric.
@@jetskijim007 thks ill ck it out cause my ski is not getting fuel.
Nice hack...
Our government must be involved $600 per a hunk of plastic worse than airplane parts big guys going to get his 10%
