Has anyone actually ordered one of these impeller housings? Precision Marine

[Marvin willis]

Went out today and the boat was vibrating at idle. It got better as we got going but I could feel it in the throttle. Tried ordering it today and got a answering machine. Will order it tomorrow hopefully.

Even if you order online I would call him. Both times he missed the PayPal notification and when I called to ask where it was he sent it right out

Does it take a special tool to remove the impeller like my jet ski?

Are you going to change the impeller or just the housing? I believe you can change the housing without removing the impeller from the shaft.

Really? Man I love this boat.

The pump housing is separate from the section of the pump that has the bearings that hold the shaft so there is no need to remove the impeller from the shaft to change the pump housing.

I look forward to hearing how the new housings work for you.

So I called multiple times today and long story short I ordered the pump and he told me it would ship out in the next 3-5 days and I asked my total and he responded "whatever the Internet said". I asked about shipping and he replied that he would send me a email. Still waiting on it. I will post a video clip when installed so you can hear the difference between the 2 pumps.

Maybe Will @JetBoatPilot can give this guy some customer service lessons.

That's not even the worst part. I told him I wish they made this for my jet ski and he said they do for Yamaha and Seadoo jet skis. I said no. I need it for my Kawasaki and he asked how to spell Kawasaki.

It keeps getting better. I called today since it had been 4 days without a confirmation email and he said it had been shipped. I asked for a shipping number abd he said he would get it and call me back. He called me back to inform me that they wrote my cc number down wrong and never called to let me know. He said he would send it out with free shipping. Called back 4 hrs later bc I'm still waiting for the email and the woman said it would be $57 but she had not run my card yet. I replied it should be 85. "Oh, my mistake". There's no telling what I'll end up with.

He just sent me a picture text of the package. Not like it matters. The weather always turns to crap every weekend anyway.

Nuts man... Would love to hear your experience with it all, but I guess that may be a looong time. I had similar experience waiting for my wakeboarding tower, but I knew it was going to happen from reviews.

My day keeps getting worse. My jet pump and impeller came in today via fed ex who HAD to have a signature so I had to go pick it up for my jet ski and when I pulled my jet pump out of the box they didn't return all the water intake attachments or seal to the impeller.

If y'all are wondering sbt throws away all parts attached to your jet pump. So I had to buy all new parts. My wife is super happy with me.

Another typical sbt interaction.

Looks like I'll be doing both my wear rings. I'll be going with the oem stainless. Best price I found is $235 + shipping at this place. http://www.partshark.com/oemparts/p/yamaha/66v-51312-01-94/housing-impeller Does anybody have a better source?

@Gym check the last post here.

I buy from them routinely, no problems so far, ask for a shipping refund based on actual shipping cost when you fill out the form or call, I usually get $10 back from then when the stuff ships - nice touch.

Thanks @swatski. Looks like a better price than I came up with. I'll give them a call

Any reason to keep the old jet pump?

Always nice to have a back up!
