I used a crow bar on the coupler and it pulled right out.

Quick question, I've got a 88 js440. I got the motor out and the ski was sitting for a while I guess but how hard is the shaft that connects to the motor supposed to be to turn? The drive shaft.

Blake Rodriguez it will have some resistance because of the thicker grease but it shouldn’t have any play in and out or any rough spots when turning.

Motor and Outdoor thanks! So it's pretty hard to turn by hand. I'm wondering if I should regrease it? It has no play just extremely hard to turn..

Blake Rodriguez yeah I would grease it for sure, don’t put a ton in it just push slowly and try to feel if there starts to be resistance like it’s full, don’t want to blow out the seals in it.

So I had issues with my driveshaft being really hard to turn so I ended up putting grease in it and now i can turn it by hand and easily turn it by a bar on the coupling.. i mean its not really that easy to turn by hand but i can turn it without straining or anything. and with the bar its super easy like i said. Does that sound about right? I dont want to drop the motor back in without hearing your opinion. thanks!

Blake Rodriguez that’s definitely sounds much harder than it should be to turn. Is there any rough feeling when it turns or rough spots? Sorry out on vacation now missed your comment.

Motor and Outdoor oh it's fine lol, no rough spots. I wonder if when I get it running it will make it easier since the bearings will get greased better since it has been years I think since it ran

Blake Rodriguez if you greased it and it’s been a while since it ran just throw it together and run it. Grease it every once in a while, the bearings are pretty big and can take a beating. Just don’t grease it to the point it blows out one of the seals, any resistance and it’s full lol.

How did you get your impeller/coupler off?
@motorandoutdoor8137

James Beavers the coupler on the crank side you have to hold the flywheel and turn it off. On the drive shaft side there is a hole in the drive shaft, put a screw driver and twist that off. If the drive shaft is out and you’re trying to get it off do the same thing but stand on it, don’t mess up the splines though. For the impeller you have to split the pump and use the impeller spline tool to get it out for 550 pump. Lmk if you need any clarification. I have a full year down series going right now.
