Forum -> jet skis -> Polaris Genesis watercraft forum How to get the impeller out to replace the seals?
by: Mike on: Wednesday, March 31 2010 at 18:19:20 CDT I also am trying to verify that the drive shaft is not bent since this is the 2 time in 4 years that the seal has gone out. Help!. Thank you. by: Bill on: Wednesday, March 31 2010 at 18:56:50 CDT Here is the photo: does it help?by: Mike on: Wednesday, March 31 2010 at 19:23:33 CDT by: Bill on: Thursday, April 1 2010 at 10:24:24 CDT Just 2 quick questions. Are you having a water leak inside the hull? Or are you getting water in the oil cone (number 37)? by: Mike on: Thursday, April 1 2010 at 10:46:06 CDT by: Bill on: Thursday, April 1 2010 at 11:16:11 CDT seals number 16(2 of) are to keep the oil chamber sealed. The pump nose cone. Water in the hull is a sign of bad propshaft seals. This is the thru-hull coupler with hose, 14 through 19. Its inside the engine compartment directly behind the engine, on the driveshaft. With the Polaris in the water, this is what you will see leaking into the hull. If the seals are bad. If you don't see water dripping from here, then water is coming in at another location. ![]() by: Mike on: Thursday, April 1 2010 at 11:57:29 CDT by: Bill on: Thursday, April 1 2010 at 12:25:19 CDT Are you near the polaris so we can do this step by step? by: Mike on: Thursday, April 1 2010 at 12:52:46 CDT All the water around here is frozen over. However before we took it out last fall we looked in and none of the hoses were leaking and the grease point had fallen out that was just behind the motor on the drive shaft. Also since this has happened 2 times over 3 years I figured it was the same thing, but I wanted also to check the drive shaft to ensure it is not bent. The first year that this happened my wife ran over a ski rope so this is what has lead me to believe that possibly the shaft is damaged. Please let me know your thoughts. Thank you Mike. by: Bill on: Thursday, April 1 2010 at 13:43:12 CDT | ||
