Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I confirm this impeller fits my Suzuki engine?
The best method is to match your engine's model and year to the "Compatible Engine Models" table. For 100% certainty, verify that your existing impeller's part number matches one of the cross-referenced numbers, such as Suzuki 17461-95201.

What are the signs of a failing water pump impeller?
Common symptoms include the engine overheating at idle or low speeds, a weak or non-existent water stream from the "tell-tale" outlet, and, in severe cases, a melted water pump housing.

How often should I replace the water pump impeller?
For preventative maintenance, we recommend inspecting the impeller annually and replacing it every 1-2 years or 200-300 hours of use, whichever comes first. This interval can shorten in engines operated frequently in sandy or silty water.

Does this include the water pump housing or gaskets?
No. This listing is for the impeller only. The housing, wear plate, and installation gaskets are sold separately as part of a complete water pump repair kit.
