Installation Guide
-
Safety First: Disconnect the battery and ensure the engine is securely mounted.
-
Access the Lower Unit: Unbolt and carefully detach the lower unit (gearcase) from the outboard's main leg.
-
Open Water Pump Housing: Locate the water pump assembly on top of the lower unit. Remove the bolts to lift off the housing cover.
-
Inspect Old Impeller: Note the orientation of the impeller blades before removal. This is critical for correct installation of the new part.
-
Remove Old Impeller: Slide the old impeller off the driveshaft. Be sure to remove the small key that locks it in place.
-
Clean and Inspect: Thoroughly clean the inside of the pump housing and wear plate. Check for scoring, warping, or corrosion and replace if necessary.
-
Install New Impeller: Apply a light coat of marine grease to the housing interior. Insert the key and slide the new impeller onto the shaft, turning it in a clockwise direction to correctly orient the blades.
-
Reassemble: Reinstall the housing and tighten the bolts to the manufacturer's specified torque.
-
Reattach Lower Unit: Guide the lower unit back into place, ensuring the driveshaft, shift shaft, and water tube align properly. Secure it with the mounting bolts.
-
Test Operation: Reconnect the battery. Start the engine in water and verify a steady stream of water is exiting the tell-tale port.
Troubleshooting & FAQ
Q: How do I confirm this impeller fits my Suzuki engine?
A: Check your engine's model and year against the "Compatible Engine Models" list. This impeller fits Suzuki DT50, DT60, DT75, DT85, and PU85JET models within the specified year ranges (1978–2000). Also, verify your existing part number matches one of the cross-referenced numbers like Suzuki 17461-95300 or Sierra 18-3095.
Q: What are the signs that my water pump impeller is failing?
A: The most common signs are the engine overheating at idle or low speeds, or a weak, intermittent water stream from the "tell-tale" outlet port. During a physical inspection, you may find the impeller blades are cracked, brittle, torn, or have taken a permanent set.
Q: How often should I replace my impeller?
A: For preventative maintenance, it is highly recommended to replace your impeller every 1-2 years or every 100-200 hours of operation. The interval depends on usage, particularly whether you operate in saltwater or sandy/silty conditions, which can accelerate wear.
