Troubleshooting & FAQ

Q: How do I confirm this kit will fit my OMC Cobra sterndrive?
A: This kit is designed for OMC Cobra models made between 1986 and 1993. The best way to ensure fitment is to check the part number stamped on your existing components and compare it against the numbers listed in our cross-reference table (OMC 984461, 777128, 983895). You can also verify compatibility using the engine model table provided.

Q: What is the difference between this impeller kit (984461) and a kit that includes the housing?
A: This kit contains the essential service components: the impeller, wear plate, liner, gasket, and O-ring. It assumes your existing water pump housing is in good, reusable condition. If your housing is cracked, scored, or warped from heat, you will need the complete kit that includes a new housing (see part number OMC 984744).

Q: How often should I replace my water pump impeller?
A: For preventative maintenance, it's recommended to inspect the impeller annually and replace it every 1-2 years, depending on operating hours and water conditions (e.g., saltwater, silty water). A common sign of a failing impeller is the engine overheating at idle or low speeds.

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.
