Best Answer

The impeller spins and compresses water into the jet nozzle. This creates a high pressure area. This water is shot out the back, and the steering nozzle diverts left and right to steer the ski. Engine cooling water is bled off the high pressure area (90 degree brass elbow) and routed though the engine, exhaust, water box and out the hull..

What are the steps in converting deep well water pump to shallow well water pump?

A deep well submersible pump can be simply placed into a shallow well and it will work. These pumps actually pump water directly and do not rely on suction. Simply cut your tube to desired length and place the deep pump in the shallow well. -NOTE- this does NOT work the other way - a shallow or jet pump is just that and can never work in a deep well.
