    Good news. I ended up using Seal All to seat the retaining washer and ran the boat for about an hour yesterday with no issues. Time will tell how long it lasts. Thanks for your advice!

    I would keep the existing retaining ring under the washer so the original parts should function the same. My biggest concern was adding that washer interfering with the functionality. I'll give it a shot in the next few days and let you know how it goes. I appreciate your input very much!!!

Sometimes it will run for 30 seconds, sometimes 5 minutes. Is there any tricks out that that I can use to set that ring so it doesn't pop out? If you...
