Troubleshooting & FAQ

Q: How do I confirm this impeller fits my Suzuki DF2.5?
A: Verify your engine model is DF2.5 (4-stroke) manufactured in 2003 or later. Cross-check the OEM part number 17461-97J00 in your service manual or on the Suzuki parts diagram.

Q: How often should I replace my water pump impeller?
A: Most manufacturers recommend replacing the impeller every 2–3 years or 200–300 hours of operation, whichever comes first. If you run in sandy, silty, or debris-laden water, inspect it annually.

Q: What are the signs my impeller is failing?
A: Common symptoms include weak water flow from the tell-tale (pee hole), engine overheating, steam from the powerhead, or visible damage such as missing, cracked, or melted blades when inspected.

Q: Does this kit include the gasket and seals for the pump housing?
A: This kit includes the impeller and drive key/pin only. Gaskets and seals are sold separately; we recommend replacing them whenever you service the water pump.
