[QUOTE="megalomaniac, post: 5781803, member: 2805"] After dropping the foot for the second time, I found the fins were oriented the same way the last impeller was. BUT, I found a chunk of rubber in the motor housing about the size of a pencil eraser from the last impeller. I figured that was the problem with the racket and removed it, then reassembled everything. Started the motor back up, and the racket is gone... but impeller is not circulating water to the engine or foot 🙄. Too exasperated to tear it back down again at the moment. Anyone have any ideas? I'm sure it's something simple and stupid... wondering if there is another piece of rubber from last impeller obstructing something.... I'm thinking about just buying an entire new water pump housing and gaskets ($75 for OEM parts) to have ready to install when I tear it down yet again. Fishing is out tomorrow, didn't get to rewire the trailer either. [/QUOTE]
