Hello all,
Wondering if any of you might know where I might find the internal snap/retainer ring that secures the counter balance shaft cover on a 787? I tried ordering a new ring from SeaDoo and, of course, the part number has changed and so too has the part itself. What is available now is a black plastic cover that fits in the groove where the retainer ring would normally go & once installed you would only need to remove that convenient little plug to refill the 1 oz. of 30 wt oil that is called for.
The problem I have is that my case does not have the handy little refill plug, although it does have the boss & area where it would normally be machined. I think this means that what I have in our trusty little 97' GTX is a replacement case from Bombardier. When I tore down the case the only thing retaining the cover was about 1/4 of the old retaining ring. I would expect that the last owner had a hard time finding one as well.
If nothing else I'd buy a used one or maybe give Grainger a call.
Thanks!
