Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if this kit fits my engine?
First, check the compatibility table and see if your engine's model, HP, and year range are listed. For absolute certainty, match your engine's serial number to the ranges in the "Notes" column. If you are still unsure, compare the parts pictured in our listing to your existing parts before ordering.
What are the signs of a failing water pump impeller?
The most common indicators of a worn or damaged impeller are engine overheating at idle or low speeds, a weak or intermittent water stream from the tell-tale port, or finding bits of black rubber in the cooling passages. A visual inspection will often reveal cracked, broken, or missing vanes on the impeller itself.
How often should I replace my water pump impeller?
For preventative maintenance, it is recommended to inspect your impeller annually and replace it every 1 to 2 years, or every 100-200 hours of operation. Replacement frequency should be increased if you operate in saltwater or shallow, sandy/silty conditions, as these environments accelerate wear.
The kit includes two different tube seals. Which one do I use?
The kit is designed to cover multiple engine variations, which may use different size seals. Compare the new seals directly against the original seal you removed from your water tube and install the one that is an exact match.
Is this kit the same quality as the original OEM part?
This listing is an aftermarket replacement (not OEM). It is built to OEM-level specifications with comparable materials for reliable fit and performance. All parts are manufactured in an ISO 9002 facility and are batch-inspected to ensure consistency and quality.
How fast is shipping and what does it cost?
We ship worldwide quickly—typical transit time is 5–15 days. Standard shipping is free to most regions, with expedited options available at checkout where applicable.
What is the warranty and return policy?
