Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I confirm this fits my engine?
The most reliable method is to match your engine's model, year, and serial number against the compatibility tables on this page. Serial number ranges are critical for correct fitment. If you are unsure, use the provided serial number guides or contact us with your engine details.
What are the signs of a failing water pump impeller?
Common signs include a weak or non-existent water stream from the "telltale" outlet, engine overheating alarms, or a noticeable drop in performance. The impeller, made of CR rubber, can become brittle, cracked, or worn over time.
How often should the impeller be replaced?
For preventative maintenance, it is recommended to inspect the impeller annually and replace it every 1-2 years, depending on usage (hours) and water conditions (saltwater, sandy, or silty water may require more frequent changes).
