Installation Guide
-
Disconnect Power: Disconnect the battery and spark plug wires to prevent accidental starting.
-
Access the Lower Unit: Remove the bolts securing the lower unit (gearcase) to the upper engine housing and carefully lower it.
-
Open the Water Pump Housing: Locate the water pump assembly on top of the gearcase and remove the housing bolts to expose the impeller.
-
Remove the Old Impeller: Note the rotational direction of the old impeller blades. Remove the old impeller, key, and gaskets.
-
Install the New Impeller: Clean the housing interior. Place the new key in the driveshaft slot and slide the new impeller on, turning the driveshaft in its normal rotational direction to bend the blades correctly.
-
Reassemble Housing: Install new gaskets and re-secure the water pump housing cover, tightening bolts to the manufacturer's specified torque.
-
Reattach Lower Unit: Carefully guide the lower unit back into place, ensuring the driveshaft and water tube align correctly. Secure with bolts.
-
Test Operation: Reconnect the battery and spark plugs. Start the engine in a water supply (using flushing muffs) and check for a steady stream of water from the tell-tale outlet.
