Shouldn't have any play up and down, if it is sloppy when turning it is probably the rubber damperHey can anyone out there tell me if the lovejoy coupler on the jet pump side is supposed to have any play in it ? I can grab it and move it up and down 1/16”. I’m talking where the 2 couplers join on the pump side inside engine bay. It doesn’t seem to me any bearing should have any play in it but just looking for some good news
I had the same issue with our 06 SX230, there should be little if any movement in the the mid shaft and bearing assembly. I replaced both of ours and it solved the problem.Hey can anyone out there tell me if the lovejoy coupler on the jet pump side is supposed to have any play in it ?

you mean have slop in it no it should not but if it does the seals may also be allowing water in the pump it the bearings are bad so remove the cone and see what the grease looks like in the pump
