Hi Diego:
Not a lot of information to go on here, so, I'll take a wild guess.
If it is an outboard motor, the chances are really good that the propeller has contacted something (rock or chunk of wood?) and the shear pin has done its job and sheared off.
So, I'd pull the propeller and replace the shear pin, assuming of course that I have guessed correctly.
Cheers
If I'm totally wrong, give some more information and maybe I can help.

Loss all thrust with yamaha vx sport 2014.

sounds like you sheared the the shaft. If you can spin the turbine by hand than you will need to take it into your service techs to fix it.

Crankshaft endplay double the max spec 01 sebring 2.7L

check for after market thrust bearings ( federal mogul ETC) . next option is to have an engineering shop manufacture the thrust bearings . IF you cannot get thrust bearings then you have little option but to junk the crank as a floating shaft will give you problems with timing belt/chain alignment and ignition timing along with crank sensor problems.

No pressure on peddle

few things could be wrong, master cylinder (mounted on firewall) could be dead might be slave (gearbox) check both, get someone to push clutch while looking at the fluid in the master if it drops it's still good. do same gain and watch the slave if it extends and moves the lever it's still good, last one should mean your thrust bearing is rooted and needs replacing, drop the gearbox and replace the bearing. hope this helped

The cleaner stands on front wheels and barely moves.

With these pool cleaners, there are several things you will want to try. Check the filter screen in the in line filter and the skimmer basket, pump basket, and pool filter. Clean any if necessary. Make sure that all hoses, connections, and swivels for leaks that could cause loss of water pressure. Make sure that your wheel RPM is correct. Make sure that your thrust jets are positioned correctly and that you have proper waterflow.

It does not pick up debris and there does not seem to be any suction on bottom of unit

Try these troubleshooting techniques for this automatic pool cleaner. First, check the thrust jet and make sure that it is getting proper thrust. Check the filter screen in the in line filter and clean it is necessary. Make sure that your skimmer basket and pump basket are clear of obstructions. Check your hoses and connections to make sure that you don't have any leaks. A loss of water pressure could be your problem.

How easy is it to replace a noisy clutch thrust bearing. 53 plate Ford Focus 1.6 petrol zetec.

The thrust bearing is normally a part of a new clutch kit.Comprises pressure plate, clutch plate and thrust bearing.You will need to remove the gear box to change the bearing.The bearing basically slides onto the gearbox shaft. Recommend changing all three rather than just the beaing.You may want to get quotes from garages as dealers are expensive.
