Ok I got the motor runnin and it sounds great for the short time it ran. I shut it down due to no water out the back end. I assume the outlet is under the motor housing with the exhaust. I'm assuming the impeller is junk. And now for the big question.... Where is the impeller and how do i get to it?

There is a 1/2" nut under the cavitation plate above the prop and a 9/16 on the top in the front, with nthem removed the unit should drop then 1 7/16 nuts hold the top on the pump hsg.

Done. what is the trick to line everything (water tube, shaft, shift linkage) up to reassemble?
