Remove Seadoo Impeller Without Tool 7,3/10 8110 reviews
Aug 01, 2009 I need to change my wear ring and I am having a hard time getting a hold of the spline tool to remove the impeller on my 2005 Seadoo Sportster Le DI 951. Is there anyway to do it without the tool.

Water Pump Impeller Removal Tool
I have had my impellers on and off several times.
I had sent my port Solas impeller to Impros to get it adjust for a little more low end power, was cavitating bad with weight in the boat.
Went to remove stock impeller (only been installed maybe 4 months) and it was a lot more difficult than in the past. Once apart I found the impeller female threads damaged and also the shaft had damaged male thread. I always used the locktight 567 on the threads like the manual directions show.
(in the future will use a never-seize- I think)
Question:
Anybody know if you can replace the shaft easily?
Does it just slide inside the bearing in the pump housing?
Also, boat is still under warranty with Yamaha.
I spoke with Yamaha service manager and sent him pictures.
He said he would check for me.
I mentioned to him it was a threaded serviceable part and should be able to unscrew without gouging things.
Waiting for a reply, figured I would try.
