Installation Guide
- Disconnect the negative battery cable and remove the engine cover.
- Shift the outboard into neutral and remove the shift linkage pin or bolt.
- Unbolt and carefully lower the gearcase (lower unit) from the outboard's midsection.
- Locate the water pump housing on top of the gearcase and remove its mounting bolts.
- Lift the housing off and remove the old impeller, noting the rotational direction of its fins. Clean any debris from the housing interior.
- Install the new gaskets and insert the new impeller. Use a small amount of grease on the interior and turn the driveshaft clockwise to seat the blades correctly.
- Reinstall the water pump housing and torque the bolts to the manufacturer's specification.
- Raise the lower unit back into position, ensuring the water tube and driveshaft align. Reinstall bolts and shift linkage.
- Reconnect the battery, supply water to the engine using flush muffs, and start it to verify a strong water stream from the tell-tale outlet.
Troubleshooting & FAQ
Q: How do I confirm this impeller fits my Suzuki engine?
A: Check your engine's model, horsepower, and year against our "Compatible Engine Models" table. You can also verify the part number on your old impeller; this part replaces OEM numbers 17461-87E00, 17461-87E10, 17461-87E11, and 17461-87E12.
Q: What are the signs of a failing water pump impeller?
A: Common signs include the engine overheating at idle or low speeds, a weak or intermittent water stream from the "tell-tale" outlet, or finding the old impeller's blades are cracked, brittle, or have taken a permanent set.
Q: How often should I replace my engine's impeller?
A: As a crucial part of preventative maintenance, we recommend replacing the impeller every 1 to 2 years or every 100-200 hours of use, whichever comes first. More frequent changes may be needed if you operate in sandy or silty water.
Q: Will this impeller fit my Suzuki DF50?
A: While some third-party sources suggest potential compatibility with DF40/DF50 models, it is not consistently confirmed. To ensure proper fit and function, we recommend using this part only for the models explicitly listed in our compatibility chart.

A: This listing is an aftermarket replacement part (not an OEM component). We build to OEM specifications using comparable-grade materials. Production is done in an ISO9002-certified facility, and each batch is inspected for consistent performance.
Q: How fast do you ship and how much does it cost?
A: We offer fast global shipping—typically 5–15 days worldwide—and standard shipping is free. Expedited options are available at checkout depending on your location.

A: This product includes a 1-year warranty against manufacturing defects under normal use. If something goes wrong, contact our support team with your order details.
