Installation Guide
-
Safety First: Disconnect the battery and ensure the engine cannot start accidentally. Turn off the fuel supply.
-
Access the Lower Unit: Remove the bolts securing the lower unit (gearcase) to the upper engine housing.
-
Remove the Water Pump Housing: Once the lower unit is detached, locate and unbolt the water pump housing to expose the impeller.
-
Inspect Components: Examine the wear plate and inside of the housing for grooves, warping, or scoring. Replace them if significant wear is present.
-
Remove Old Impeller: Slide the old impeller off the drive shaft. You may need to remove a drive key first. Note the rotational direction of the blades.
-
Prepare for Installation: Clean the drive shaft and the interior of the housing. Lightly lubricate the shaft with marine-grade grease.
-
Install New Impeller: Insert the drive key (if used) and slide the new impeller onto the shaft. Gently twist the impeller in the direction of engine rotation to correctly orient the blades inside the housing.
-
Reassemble the Housing: Securely reinstall the water pump housing, ensuring any seals or O-rings are correctly seated. Tighten bolts to the specified torque.
-
Reattach Lower Unit: Align the drive shaft and shift shaft, then reattach the lower unit to the engine.
-
Final Checks: Reconnect the battery and fuel line. Start the engine in a water source (using a flusher or in the water) and confirm a steady stream of water is exiting the tell-tale port.
Troubleshooting & FAQ
Q: How do I confirm this impeller fits my engine?
A: The most reliable method is to match your engine's model and year against the compatibility chart above. Additionally, compare your existing OEM part number to those listed in our Part Number Cross-Reference table.
Q: What are the common signs of a failing water pump impeller?
A: Key indicators include the engine running hotter than normal, an engine overheating alarm, or a weak or non-existent water stream from the "tell-tale" outlet port on the outboard.
