1994 RAGE 14: Impeller-to-sleeve Clearance

Postby Pickles » Thu Aug 29, 2019 5:59 pm

How much tolerance is acceptable [on a 1994 RAGE] on the jet pump impeller-to-sleeve clearance?

Where can anew impeller and wear sleeve be purchased?

I would appreciate any help. Thanks

Not sure if you can buy a sleeve. On a jetski when the tolerance was too large you had to replace the whole pump. You should be able to google the clearance.
On my 24th Whaler. Currently in the stable: 86 18' Outrage, 81 13' Sport(original owner), 87 11' Sport, 69 Squall(for sale cheap).

Max wear clearance is 0.050".

The "liner" is cast into the aluminum housing and was never sold as a replacement part.

What is your clearance measurement?

Or have you just lost boat performance?
