Newbie tapered liner ?

[hct4all]

How do you remove a tapered liner? I want to measure the gap between the liner and impeller. All the videos I see have the flanged liner. I looked on outboard jets website and those details are missing. Or do I need to remove the grates?

Thank you

If you just want to measure the gap between the liner and the impeller, just remove the jet foot with the grates in it.
Then use a feeler gage between the edges of the impeller and the liner to see how much clearance there is, if there is too much clearance remove the impeller and move it up by removing a washer from the top and placing it on the bottom of the shaft, assemble and check clearance. I don't know if the washers are different thicknesses, might have to play with it by switching washers around until it's right.
Can't help if you need a new replacement liner, haven't had to do that yet.
Might try GOOGLING> how to replace a liner in a xxxxx outboard jet if you don't get any replies on here.

The liner is attached to the foot, almost press fit. When I remove the foot the liner comes out too.

Thank you
