Alright then, final question....Do i need to include all the botls from the engine? I have the jugs and head taken off, and the bolts are just in a box with the rest of the bolts...if you need them...ill search through, but if you guys use all new ones, ide jus assume have some spares.

Yes all the engine fastners are part of the core exchange.

I had sea doo techs remove it, and they said its fine.... I explained to them the fact it spun independantly, but they got it off no problem and said its fine....Should I take their word for it being as They saw it in person? Whats the worst that could happen if it is bad?

[Technical Support]

Just because they could get it off with air tools doesn't mean it's fine. The fact that the center is spinning means it's on it's way to being in two parts. The engine torque will eventually break it. Get a new one.

Interesting, mine did the same thing, except required a heap of pressure to make it slip.

Its been in use now for a year with no problems.

If he can turn it by hand with just a pipe wrench, thats hardly anything compared to the engine torque.

I could only turn it when heated for a while, as soon as it even STARTED to cool, I couldnt budge it. Im considering giving it a try

OK you left that part out. It should be fine.
