lost hose clamp

[Bayon-M/C]

I lost a hose clamp down my intake. I can feel it with my fingers above the intake what does this mean.Do i need to remove my loader and intake or should i just fire it up?

I would use a telescoping magnent (cheap at local parts store) and fish it out that way. It would most likely get stuck in the impeller or vanes in your bowl if you tried to run it through.

You lost/dropped a hose clamp in your hand hole clean out correct...?
If so, simply go under the boat and fish it out throught the loader with some needle nose pliers.

Definately rescue that clamp it could be the "monkey wrench in the works" ;)

I Dont Think It Went Into The Loader, I Was Putting Back The Clamp That Goes On The Water Inlet When The Clamp Fell. So I Belive It Went Somewhere In The Hull And The Intake. I Tryed A Magnet I Will Try Again.
