RE: water jet problem
thx quicksilver the one with the kink in runs absolutely fine do the vanes have to be on impeller? or could they go on the rear? which does not seem to able to cure prob as froth is at the outlet of impeller someone said it could be starvation but i still get the prob with just the dodgy one running would just the vanes fitted in the tube suffice? thx mate mick
