It works like a centrifugal pump- centrifugal force impels the water and pushes it out the stern, creating thrust- in that sense like an airplane jet. on the other hand this is water and no combustion takes place in the turbine, which is driven by a conventionsl piston engine. Unlike its forerunner, the Sea Sled- the Jetski cannot ( at least intentionally) submerge. It is like an aquatic motorcycle- not a mini-sub.
Check Battery, Check Fuel
You need a boater's license and a jetski license in order to operate s jetski legally.
in Florida you have to be 16 to operate a jetski alone
try hooking up the hose to he jetski
You need a fast jetski and a boating certificate
Well although the way you go about installing a jet ski engine in an aluminum boat is a bit different from a wooden boat, this site should help you out with the basic idea, youll just have to experiment a bit to find a solution. http://www.glen-l.com/jetski/jetjon-index.html (once on the site click on type of jetski your using)
the water comes from the jet pump that propels your jet boat forward. there is plate over the hole where the car type water pump would be. typically.
If by lisence you mean an RYA lisence then you can take the RYA course at most jetski lakes in the UK it costs around £80 but once you have this your insurance will be considerably cheaper. I know for definite the RYA course can be taken at fosse hill jetski centre YO25 8SB
There are two types of jet pumps. Deep well jet and shallow well jet. The deep well has it's jet (ejector) in the well. The jets come in two different configurations. Two pipe and single pipe. The two pipe uses two pipes lowered into the well to the existing water level with the jet on the end. The single pipe jet is hung in the well with only one pipe. The jet has two leathers to seal it to the casing making the casing the second pipe. The shallow well jet pump has it's jet on or in the pump. These pumps can only lift water 25 feet. Once primed, the jet pump will force water down the pressure pipe into the jet, where it will be sent through a nozzle (of differing sizes depending on pump and water level) and into a Venturi tube (also differing in sizes) which creates a vacuum that will send more water up to be captured in the storage tank.
You will have to describe what a jet pump hose is. This terminology does not match with anything in my service manual.
The most basic jet pump has a round pump chamber containing an impeller. The outlet to the well is large and the outlet to pressure tank is small. When the pump is primed and switched on it will suck water in and expel it at a higher rate. They are very susceptible to air leaks -every connection MUST be airtight.
Fuel pump is in the gas tank. Fuel pump is in the gas tank. The jet pump is on the drivers side under the back seat, the fuel pump is on the passenger side under the back seat.
