Installation Notes

  1. Disconnect the battery and remove the engine cover.
  2. Shift the outboard into neutral.
  3. Remove the bolts securing the lower unit (gearcase) to the upper driveshaft housing.
  4. Carefully lower the gearcase to access the water pump assembly.
  5. Unscrew the bolts for the water pump housing and remove it.
  6. Slide the old impeller off the driveshaft, noting the orientation of the keyway.
  7. Clean the interior of the pump housing and inspect it for wear or damage.
  8. Lubricate the new impeller and housing interior with a marine-grade grease or soap solution.
  9. Slide the new impeller onto the driveshaft, aligning the keyway. Turn the driveshaft clockwise to seat the vanes correctly.
  10. Reinstall the water pump housing, ensuring a proper seal.
  11. Reattach the lower unit to the engine, making sure the driveshaft and water tube align correctly.
  12. Once reassembled, start the engine in water and verify a strong, steady stream from the tell-tale outlet.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I know if my impeller needs replacing?

Common signs of a failing impeller include the engine running hotter than normal, a weak or intermittent water stream from the tell-tale (pee hole), or if the existing impeller's blades are cracked, brittle, or permanently set.

Will this fit my specific 1976 Johnson 70 HP motor?

Yes, this impeller is designed for all Evinrude and Johnson 3-cylinder outboards from 40 to 75 HP manufactured between 1975 and 1978. Always double-check your model and year against the compatibility chart before ordering.

What is the recommended replacement interval?

As a best practice, inspect your impeller annually and plan to replace it every 1-2 years. If you operate in saltwater, silty, or sandy conditions, more frequent replacement (every year) is recommended to ensure reliability.

What are the signs of incorrect installation?

The most immediate sign is a lack of water pumping from the tell-tale outlet upon starting the engine. This can be caused by incorrectly seated impeller vanes (from turning the driveshaft counter-clockwise during installation) or a poor seal on the pump housing.
