Absolutely if any belt work is involved I’ll hire someone to do it.

I had the identical issue. It’s a simple fix. Pull the hose off the inlet side of the trans heat exchanger and remove the pieces of old impeller pieces. You can use a shop vac also if you pull both hoses of the heat exchanger and put your hand over the other side, creating more suction

I’m an automotive tech and discovered this quickly on my boat and then had to do it on four other boats (Searay-Fourwinns-Cruisers)that had alarm issues that just had work done on. Can’t believe techs dont clean these after aver impeller replacement. The pieces have to go somewhere!!
