Rock behind empeller?? 2016 Seadoo GTI 155

[Guysyloser]

Got a rock stuck in the empeller on a 2016 GTI 155 Limited with iBR.
I got the rock free but it fell behind the empeller.
How do you rotate the empeller by hand???

You can't, but you should be able to go under the ski and get the rock from the intake side.

Working through the intake grate is how I got the rock loose. It’s about the size of quarter. I did not know if it would flow out the back on its own??

Use ibr override to raise the reverse bucket, then use a long grabber tool to reach in from the back and grab from the back.

Thank you all. Rock is out. Worked like a charm. Did the over ride, raised the reverse bucket and there they were 2 rocks.
Good introduction to jet ski life. I just got two and had been in the water a whole 1/2 hr.
Thx. Again.
