polaris impeller spun off

[chevy900ss]

Well i was just cruising about half throttle across the bayou and all of a sudden a horrible noise like something broke or came loose came about and the engine of my sl 750 polaris pwc just stopped out in the middle. I pulled it out of the water and took the pump housing off and the impeller wasnt even screwed together. it was just spinning wildly not connected to its shaft with the bearings and seals on it. i was just wondering what would cause one to come un screwed. If anyone could help it would be nice thanks.

either you hit something or the impeller was loose to begin with.<br />Rob

if the threads are not stripped then it was never tight in the first place

Retighten it but use Red loc tite on the threads. I cant remember the FTLB torque
