95 Seadoo GTX Pump Repair

Hi,

I own a '95 Seadoo GTX that have the pump bearings shot.

I took it to a local dealer and was quoted $600-800 to have it repaired - is this a reasonable amount?

Also, if I decide to fix it myself, do I need to pull out the drive shaft and its bearings and seals or could I remove just the nozzle, impeller housing, etc to replace the bearings? Any special tools required?

geez,is he replacing the whole pump?

tell me what parts he is going to put in.

also if you are going to pull the pump,you may as well replace the carrier bearing while you have it apart.the old ounce of prevention deal. scott scotts performance powersports

I just had my 99 GTI impeller shaft, bearings and cone replaced. $368 at Richardson Motor Sports, Richardson, Texas. No special tools to take the pump off the ski, but you need special tools to remove the impeller. You can send it off to www.impros.com and let them overhaul the pump. Then you'll have to reinstall it.

Thats way more in line with what i would charge.scott scotts performance powersports

Simon, I charged a customer $55.00 for parts ( two bearings, a cone oring , pump oil and one seal) and $97.50 for labor to do the same job today. $600-$800 ? Yeah, I'd say he is OVERPRICED!
