In Topic: How easy is it to fry your impellar?
20 July 2011 - 10:00 PM
I just finished pulling a rock out of mine that managed to get thru the impeller and wedge in grate behind it. When its on trailer, take a flashlight and look into business end of the jet. Betcha something is still in there.

Looked in intake grate. Looked clean. Took a flashlight and looked in through the back. A rock almost as big as golf ball was wedged in the back grate behind the impeller. After removing all the external hardware (reverse, steering, etc.) I was able the wiggle the rock free and get it through the grate.
Sadly, the impeller suffered a little damage. There are dings on the leading edge and while rock was wedged behind the impeller, there are shiney spots at the tail of every fin. My next question is how much damage is too much? How do I tell if it's not right? Will it hurt anything else if I run it like it is? I hooked up water hose on trailer and it seemed fine. No vibrations that I noticed
