Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I confirm this fits my engine?
This kit is designed for Mercury/Mariner 2-stroke outboards (15–25 HP, 1983–2006) and Force 2-stroke outboards (18–25 HP). Please check the "Compatible Engine Models" table and cross-reference your engine's part number with Mercury 47-85089T7, 47-85089Q4, or Sierra 18-3215.
What are the signs I need to replace my water pump impeller?
Common signs of a failing impeller include the engine overheating, a weak or non-existent water stream from the "tell-tale" outlet, or visible cracks and brittleness on the old impeller's vanes during inspection.
How often should the impeller be replaced?
For preventative maintenance, it is recommended to inspect and/or replace the water pump impeller every 1-2 years or every 100-200 hours of use, depending on operating conditions (e.g., saltwater vs. freshwater).
