  • Is my new wear ring too small? Please help!!

    2003 Seadoo GTX 4-tec limited 185 hp Supercharged, I am replacing my wear ring and impeller. The new wear ring I purchased from SBT fits snugly but not tight. The repair manuals show using a press or a block of wood to put it in. I am able to push it in with my hands and pull it out with my hands. I checked and it is the correct one according to the listing on the page 78-112a-02. Has anyone else seen this? Should I go and purchase an OEM wear ring? I appreciate any advice!!!

    Use the set screws to hold the ring in place, this is normal with the plastic pump housings.

      Should I use Loctite? If so which number?

        Loctite is not needed, install the set screws the way the factory had them set, drill a pilot hole for the screw in the wear ring so the ring doesn't pinch the impeller.
