I have owned my 1979 Ski Tique since 1983. I have done heavy maintenance on the engine and many other parts. So when I was getting the boat ready for this years season, I didn't think anything about taking the Jabsco 17410 Raw Water pump apart to check the impeller. The impeller looked a little worn, so I put in a new OEM impeller and re-assembled the pump.
However, now the pump doesn't work. It seems to be running... Backwards. I have re-assembled, checked everything I can think of, and it simply doesn't pull any water from my bucket I use to supply the engine with cooling when it is out of the water. IN fact, I can see it blowing the water back out the inlet hose......
I am at a loss to explain what could be happening, so any suggestions would be appreciated.
I have replaced the gaskets,and impeller. checked the body for cracks, and lubed the impeller.
Here are some photos that might help:
