Section 10 PROPULSION SYSTEM
Subsection 02 (JET PUMP)
SMR2000_065_10_02A.FM 10-02-5
Check oil level, it should be at bottom of hole
threads.
If oil level is low, check impeller shaft housing for
leaks. A pressure test must be performed. See
PUMP PRESSURIZATION in this subsection.
To check oil condition, insert a wire through oil lev-
el hole then withdraw. A whitish oil indicates wa-
ter contamination.
This may involve defective impeller shaft seal
and/or O-ring of housing cover. Jet pump unit should
be overhauled to replace seal.
If everything is correct, apply Loctite pipe sealant
(P/N 293 800 018) on plug threads and reinstall it
on cover. Properly reinstall removed parts.
