Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I confirm this kit fits my engine?
This kit is specifically designed for Suzuki 2-Stroke DT8C (8 HP) and DT9.9C (9.9 HP) models manufactured between 1988 and 1997. You should verify your model and year against the compatibility table. It serves as a direct replacement for OEM part numbers 17400-92D00 and 17400-92D01.
What are the signs that my water pump impeller needs replacement?
Key indicators of a failing impeller include a weak or non-existent water stream from the "tell-tale" outlet, engine overheating alerts, or a noticeable decrease in cooling system performance, especially at low speeds.
How often should I replace the water pump impeller?
For preventative maintenance, it is recommended to inspect your impeller annually and replace it every 1-2 years or 100-200 hours of use. Replacement frequency may vary depending on whether you operate in fresh or saltwater and the amount of debris in the water.
The kit lists "1-2" gaskets. Why?
The kit includes the necessary gaskets to cover the specified engine models across their entire year range (1988-1997). Some years require one gasket while others may use a different one. Please match the new gasket to your old one to ensure a proper seal.
