Installation Guide
-
Safety First: Disconnect the engine's battery cables to prevent accidental starting.
-
Lower Unit Removal: Place the outboard in neutral. Remove the bolts securing the lower unit (gearcase) to the engine. There is typically one hidden under the trim tab anode.
-
Detach Lower Unit: Carefully lower the gearcase away from the engine. The driveshaft will disengage from the powerhead.
-
Access Impeller: Locate the water pump housing on top of the gearcase. Remove the bolts holding the housing cover in place.
-
Remove Old Impeller: Lift off the housing. You can now see the old impeller. Remove it from the driveshaft, being careful not to lose the Woodruff key that aligns it.
-
Clean & Prep: Thoroughly clean the inside of the pump housing and the wear plate. Lightly lubricate the new impeller and housing interior with marine grease or soapy water.
-
Install New Impeller: Slide the new impeller onto the driveshaft, ensuring it aligns with the Woodruff key. Twist the driveshaft clockwise while pushing down on the housing to fold the blades correctly.
-
Reassemble: Secure the water pump housing with its bolts. Re-install the lower unit, making sure the driveshaft, shift shaft, and water tube align properly before bolting it back on.
-
Final Check: Re-install the trim tab anode and reconnect the battery. Start the engine using a water supply (flushing muffs) and check for a strong stream from the water pump tell-tale outlet.
Troubleshooting & FAQ
Q: How do I confirm this impeller fits my specific engine?
A: The best way is to match your engine's model and year against the compatible models list on this page. For absolute certainty, cross-reference the OEM part number 6CE-44352-00-00 with your existing part or your engine's service manual.
Q: What are the signs of a failing water pump impeller?
A: The most common indications include a weak or intermittent water stream from the tell-tale outlet, or the engine overheating alarm sounding. Upon inspection, a worn impeller may have cracked, brittle, or broken blades.
Q: How often should I replace my water pump impeller?
A: As a general rule, it is best practice to inspect your impeller annually and replace it every 1-2 years or every 100-200 hours of operation, whichever comes first. This interval can be shorter if you frequently operate in sandy, silty, or saltwater conditions.
