I have a '95 Raider Deluxe. When accelerating there is a rattle and vibration coming from the pump. I looked under the ski and the drive shaft is scored completely around at the front where it goes thru the hull into the engine. The impeller has a few very small nicks and dings on it so I don't think it's cavitation. Could there be a bearing or coupler failure going on? The drive shaft is tight, I cannot get any movement out of it pulling on it by hand. The ski is stock except for a protec ride plate. Mostly my grandkids ride it around just for fun. It has 122 hrs on it and runs perfectly. Thanks. Doug
