Troubleshooting & FAQ
Q: How do I confirm this fits my engine?
A: This kit is specifically for Yamaha 115-130 HP 2-Stroke outboards from 1984-1992. Please review the "Compatible Engine Models" table to verify your specific model and year. We also recommend using the Yamaha Serial Number Guide to identify your engine with certainty.
Q: Does this kit include the water pump housing?
A: No, the water pump housing (part # 6E5-44311-00-00) is not included in this kit. It must be purchased separately if your existing housing is cracked, warped, or excessively worn.
Q: What are the signs my water pump impeller is failing?
A: The most common sign is a weak, inconsistent, or non-existent water stream from the "tell-tale" cooling outlet. Other indicators include engine overheating alarms, steam from the exhaust, or finding broken vanes on the old impeller during inspection.
Q: How often should I replace the water pump kit?
A: For preventative maintenance, we recommend replacing the water pump impeller and gaskets every 1 to 2 years, or every 100-200 hours of use. This interval can be shorter if you frequently operate in sandy, silty, or saltwater conditions.
Q: OEM vs. Aftermarket?
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.
