Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if this kit fits my engine?
This kit is designed for Johnson/Evinrude 3-cylinder 60-75 HP 2-Stroke (1979–2003) and 60-70 HP 4-Stroke (1998-up) engines. Always check the compatibility table and part numbers to confirm a match with your specific model and year.
What are the signs of a failing water pump impeller?
Common signs include a weak or non-existent stream of water from the tell-tale port, engine overheating alarms, and reduced engine performance. A visual inspection may reveal cracked, brittle, or worn impeller fins.
How often should I replace the water pump impeller?
For preventative maintenance, it is recommended to inspect the impeller annually and replace it every 1-2 years or every 100-200 hours of use, depending on operating conditions (e.g., saltwater vs. freshwater).
Is this kit difficult to install?
Installation requires basic mechanical skills and tools to drop the lower unit. While it can be a DIY project for many, we recommend professional installation if you are not comfortable performing the work. Following a service manual for your specific engine is crucial.
Is the pump housing included in this kit?
Yes, this is a complete rebuild kit that includes the water pump housing, impeller, wear plate, gaskets, seals, and necessary hardware as listed in the "What's in the Box" section.
Should I lubricate the new impeller?
Yes, applying a light coat of marine grease or a soap-and-water solution to the inside of the housing and the impeller fins can ease installation and prevent damage during the first dry start.
