Hi just bought my first jet boat and im not new to boats but new to the whole jet pump thing. My boat is a 1974 18 FT CHANGER JET DRIVE BOAT W/455 OLDS,JACUZZI JET. I lost oil psi and think I spun a bearing so need to pull my motor for repair. Im good with motors but not familer with these jet drives or what exactly I must do to dissconect motor from jet so i can pull it out of boat. Any help would be greatly appreciated. It has a 455 olds and jacuzzi jet. Thanks, Josh

aside from disconnecting the mounts (either 4 or 3 point) theres a driveline that hooks to a splined shaft on the pump. 



if its a 3 point the bellhousing sits on the pump itself and theres a little bracket that bolts up underneath to clamp it to the pump.  you can either reach thru the access hole and undo the 4 bolts that mount the driveline to the crank/PTO or just lift the motor out and push it a few inches forward and slide the driveshaft off the spline.  i found its easier to put the motor in/out with the driveline hooked up and just lining up the splines.  some do it thru the access hole in the bellhousing.
