Author	Topic:   rage 15 omc turbo jet seizing
irage	posted 07-24-2012 07:03 AM ET (US)         Last year my 115 quit on me. I thought it was electrical. how ever it is the turbo jet that is seized. when diagnosing the problem i found my starboard top cylinder plug was mashed. I think it came from the trauma of the seizure. Can some on with this boat let me know what the correct plug is for this boat. Also if some one has had a similar experience? Thanks in advance

I am trying to grind the wear ring but i think i want to remove the impeller first. Any idea if the shaft is regular thread ( not reverse)? And will the impeller come right out after the shaft is removed?
