Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I confirm this fits my engine?
Verify your engine's model and year against the "Compatible Engine Models" table. This kit is designed for Yamaha T25, F30, F40, 40XMH, and 40XE models within the specified years. Cross-referencing your existing part number with 66T-W0078-00 is the most reliable way to ensure a match.
What are the signs of a failing water pump impeller?
Key indicators include the engine overheating at low speeds, a weak or intermittent water stream from the tell-tale outlet, or a burnt rubber smell. Upon inspection, a worn impeller will appear cracked, brittle, or have fins that are permanently bent or broken.
How often should I replace the impeller?
As a critical part of preventative maintenance, we recommend replacing the water pump impeller every one to two years or after every 100-200 hours of operation. Frequency should be increased if you primarily operate in saltwater or sandy/silty conditions.
