Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if this impeller fits my specific engine model?
This impeller fits a wide range of Johnson and Evinrude 2-stroke outboards from 35 HP to 55 HP, manufactured between 1958 and 1978. Always verify your engine's original part number against the cross-reference list (e.g., 377230, 777213) and check the provided dimensions before ordering.
What are the signs of a failing water pump impeller?
Common signs include a weak or non-existent water stream from the engine's "tell-tale" outlet, engine overheating alarms, and reduced engine performance. We recommend inspecting the impeller annually.
What is the recommended replacement interval?
For most recreational boaters, replace the impeller every one to two years or every 100-200 hours of operation. For heavy or commercial use, annual replacement is strongly advised to prevent engine damage.
Is any special tool required for installation?
Standard mechanic's tools like a socket set and screwdrivers are usually sufficient. A gear oil pump will be needed to refill the lower unit. No highly specialized tools are typically required for an impeller replacement.
What’s the difference between part number 377230 and 777213?
Part number 777213 is often cited as a supersession or direct replacement for 377230. For the compatible engine models listed, they are functionally interchangeable. This aftermarket part is designed to replace both.
Can I run the engine out of water after installing the new impeller?
No. Never run the engine without a proper water supply. "Dry running" the pump, even for a few seconds, will instantly destroy the new neoprene impeller. Always use a flush attachment ("muffs") or test the boat in the water.
OEM vs. Aftermarket?
This listing is an aftermarket replacement (not OEM). Built to OEM-level specifications with comparable materials. Manufactured in an ISO 9002 facility, batch-inspected for consistency.
