That little plastic sleeve piece that you didnt know where it went goes over top of the rubber boot that you had in your hand when you slipped it onto to driveshaft. It holds the boot inplace up against the impellar. The correct way is to have to driveshaft attached to the impellar BEFORE installing the driveshaft into the engine. It shouldn't make a HUGE difference if its installed or not, but if you ever have to take it apart again, Id suggest putting it on ;) Other than that, great videos!
You have the impeller boot / seal on backward. The big end should fit inside the impeller and the plastic cone slip over the boot once the boot is installed in the impeller.
***** It could be that someone might had changed the impeller with a different impeller. The previous owner(s) of my Seadoo jet boat changed the impeller for my boat. Like you when I brought the impeller boot for my jet boat, I couldn't for the life of me put the boot in the impeller. Later I found another impeller and the boot slipped right into it without any problems.
You seem to be able to answer my questions on time so I have one more the testing hose at the top the cooling hose one connect to the back and one is not connected where u can test the jet ski while running water to it where is that hose supposed to go ?
Hello great video but where did you get the driveshaft from. Who is you parts supplier . This is exactly what happened to my sled and in south TX nobody has a clue . Part is unavailable, that's what I've been told .
Thanks for the video. I have 1997 spx, It fells like im stuck in first gear like yours. I was wondering What fixed yours? what part('s) should I replace?
2 plastic cover piece that you said you didn't wanna put on when you get more of a slide that rubber boot on then you take the other rubber other piece and slatted over the rubber boots and it will lock in place
he has a different impeller, that boot kit is for the newer impeller models like my 99SPX used the 2 part rubber stopper. The impeller he has shows a deeper trench for the seal. So its just the incorrect boot for that impeller. I think solas makes a one piece rubber seal as well.
I have a 94, mine is slighly different from the 95 I installed the wear ring, got everything put back in, tried to fire it up and the impeller is too tight against the wear ring, so i had to take out the spark plugs to spin the engine over for awhile so the impeller would cut its grove into the wear ring. i haven't cranked it up yet, should this be ok?
jasonneal Your impeller should not touch the wear ring at all. If you replaced your wear ring it might be to small, make sure it's the right ring. You shold have a very small gap between the wear ring and impeller; you don't want it to touch. If the impeller is touching the wear ring in one area it could be a bent drive shaft or a bad bearing. Is it touching in one spot or the intire wear ring?
yea, it is touching on all sides, i measured the ring and its 139.5 mm. when i looked on ebay, i can't find any OEM rings, only after markets and they range from $10-$100. the one i got came with the gasket and is black for $30. i did see one on ebay that measured 140mm. all the others say they measure out to 139.5
@@LonnieJohnson1 That's absolutely FALSE and you shouldn't give advise to people if you don't know what the hell you're talking about. The IMPELLER MUST BE IN CONTACT AND SNUG WITH THE WEAR RING OR IT WILL NOT CREATE SUCTION AND WORK PROPERLY. It's supposed to be super tight, and the impeller is supposed to cut itself a groove in the ring. If there is a space between the impeller and wear ring you need a new implorer. Any gap larger than 1/2 the width of a credit card is NO GOOD!
THIS IS DONE ALL WRONG!!!!!!! the rubber boot and cone must be inserted in the nose of the impeller itself. You will have cavitation problems and possibly be lead into other issues by just sticking the little boot over the shaft! The cone piece goes over the boot and the boot into the impeller.
jetguy1205 The boot would not work! I do not have cavitation, the bearings keep the impeller balanced. Anyway, everything is put together by the parts list for the 1995 and I have had no problems. You should get a 1995 XP and make a video of how it's done!
YPU SIR ARE ABSOLUTELY CORRECT! The boot goes on the impeller, before the impeller goes on the drive shaft. Otherwise water its going to get into the splines inside the impeller/shaft connection.
I got my drive-shaft off eBay. You can also try SBT Jetski Engines, Parts & Accessories
Great videos man. Need to remove mine off my 1995 Seadoo Speedster and this really helped me know what to look for.
Thanks

I tried doing that and it would not fit or seal properly. It can only go in one way. But thanks for the input.

Upallnight
I haven't had any problems with it since I rebuild it. everything still works good, I change the impeller oil every season.
Need more info on this.. what was the rubber end that goes on the drive shaft? How does the boot fit with plastic

Check the link below, I used one like this on my 1995 Sea-Doo.

y didnt u fix the damaged vanes? looks like rocks went through there
What did you torque the impeller housing down to ?
I snugged it down tight because it was tight when I removed it. You can also Torq them at 22 Nm or 16 Ft lbs
@@LonnieJohnson1 thank you
Glad to help. Hope everything works out.
@@LonnieJohnson1 it did 1 more questions for the steering nozzle what torque specs did you go with
If it had fiber lock nuts I just snugged them down real good.

hi can you show me how to get the drive shaft out of the seado
My impeller won't turn now and I dont know why :(
