Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I confirm this kit fits my engine?
First, check the "Compatible Engine Models" tables on this page. For Yamaha owners, we highly recommend using the Yamaha Serial Number Guide to confirm your exact model and year before ordering.
What are the signs of a failing water pump?
Common symptoms include the engine overheating at idle or low speeds, a weak or non-existent water stream from the "tell-tale" outlet, and in severe cases, a steam or high-temperature alarm from your console.
How often should I replace my water pump impeller?
For preventative maintenance, it is recommended to replace your impeller and gaskets every 1 to 2 years, or every 100-200 engine hours, depending on operating conditions (e.g., saltwater vs. freshwater, sandy/silty environments).
