Troubleshooting & FAQ
Q: How do I confirm this kit fits my engine?
A: Start by checking your engine's model, horsepower, and year against our "Compatible Engine Models" table. For 100% certainty, cross-reference the OEM part number stamped on your original water pump housing or found in your service manual with the numbers listed in our "Part Number Cross-Reference" section. If you need help identifying your Yamaha model, use our linked guides.
Q: What are the signs of a faulty water pump impeller?
A: The most common symptom is your engine overheating at idle or low speeds. Other signs include a weak or non-existent water stream from the "tell-tale" outlet, a melted water pump housing, or a brittle/cracked impeller discovered during routine inspection.
Q: How often should the water pump kit be replaced?
A: As a preventative maintenance measure, we recommend replacing the water pump impeller and seals every 1 to 2 years, or every 100-200 operating hours. This interval may be shorter if you frequently operate in sandy, silty, or saltwater environments.
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.
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.
Q: What is your warranty and return policy?
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. Returns are accepted within our standard return window (unused & in original condition); please see our policy page or reach out for instructions.
