- Unbolt and remove the old water pump housing to access the impeller and other components.
- Clean all mating surfaces thoroughly, removing any old gasket material.
- Install the new impeller, key, gaskets, plates, and housing from the kit. Ensure the impeller vanes are facing the correct direction.
- Re-install the water pump assembly and torque the bolts to the manufacturer's specification.
- Raise the lower unit back into position and secure it with the mounting bolts.
- Refill the gearcase with fresh marine gear lube and reinstall the drain screw with a new gasket.

Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I confirm this fits my Yamaha F6 engine?
This kit is designed for Yamaha F6 models (F6CMH, F6LMH, F6SMH) made in 2010 and newer. The best way to confirm is to check your engine's model and year against the "Compatible Engine Models" table. You can also compare your existing part numbers to those in the "Part Number Cross-Reference" section.
What are the signs of a bad water pump impeller?
Common symptoms include the engine overheating at idle or low speeds, or a weak or non-existent stream of water from the "tell-tale" outlet port. A brittle, cracked, or worn impeller can no longer pump water effectively, leading to poor engine cooling.
How often should I replace the water pump impeller?
For preventative maintenance, it is recommended to inspect the impeller annually and replace it every 1-2 years or every 100-200 hours of use, depending on operating conditions. More frequent replacement may be necessary if you operate in sandy, silty, or saltwater environments.
What is the difference between this kit and the original Yamaha kit?
This is an aftermarket kit manufactured to the same specifications as the OEM part. The main difference is that OEM part numbers have been updated over time (from 6BX-WG078-00-00 to 6EE-W0078-02-00). Our kit's contents match the latest version to ensure compatibility and performance.
