Troubleshooting & FAQ
Q: How do I confirm this impeller fits my engine?
A: This impeller fits Mercury/Mariner 40-60 HP 4-Stroke EFI engines made in 1999 or later, including BigFoot models. For Force outboards, it fits 70 HP and 75 HP models from specific years; you must verify that your engine's serial number falls within the ranges listed in the compatibility table.
Q: What are the signs of a failing water pump impeller?
A: The most common signs of a bad impeller are the engine running hotter than normal or overheating, and a weak or nonexistent stream of water from the "tell-tale" outlet port.
Q: How often should I replace my impeller?
A: For general preventative maintenance, it is recommended to inspect the impeller annually and replace it every 1 to 2 years (or every 100-200 hours of use), especially if you operate in saltwater or water with heavy sediment.
