Engine Compatibility
Company fitment data lists Mercury and Mariner outboards rated at 6, 8, 9.9, 10 and 15 HP. Stroke type and engine configuration must be checked together because the listed applications are not identical across all engines.
| Brand | Stroke | Rated HP | Additional Conditions |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mercury/Mariner | 2-Stroke | 6, 8, 9.9, 10, 15 HP | Company-listed 2-stroke applications. |
| Mercury/Mariner | 4-Stroke | 8 HP | 232 cc and 323 cc configurations are listed; standard configuration. |
| Mercury/Mariner | 4-Stroke | 9.9 HP | 232 cc and 323 cc configurations are listed; standard configuration. |
| Mercury/Mariner | 4-Stroke | 15 HP | 323 cc standard configuration is listed. |
| Mercury/Mariner | 4-Stroke | Selected applications | One company listing specifies standard serial range 0P075166–0P325499 for the applicable 232 cc/323 cc range. Verify the engine serial number before purchase. |
Fitment note: Horsepower alone is not sufficient to confirm compatibility. Compare the engine brand, stroke, displacement or configuration, serial number and the original pump reference with the information above.

Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I confirm that this kit fits my engine?
Compare your engine brand, horsepower, stroke type, configuration, serial number and original water-pump reference with the compatibility information on this page. Do not rely on horsepower alone.
Does this kit include the water-pump housing?
Yes. The company product description identifies this item as a water-pump service or repair kit with housing.
Is this an OEM Mercury part?
No. This is an aftermarket replacement kit that references Mercury/Mariner OEM numbers for application comparison.
Can I use the 2-stroke fitment information for a 4-stroke engine?
No. The 2-stroke and 4-stroke applications must be treated separately. Confirm the complete engine configuration and, where applicable, the serial-number range before ordering.
What are common signs of a worn water pump?
Possible symptoms include weak or absent tell-tale water flow, overheating warnings, steam or reduced cooling performance. Inspect the full cooling system before replacing parts.
Should installation be performed by a professional?
Professional installation is recommended if you are not experienced with lower-unit removal or outboard cooling-system service. Follow the engine manufacturer's service manual for all procedures and torque values.
What should I do if the engine still overheats after installation?
Check for blocked cooling passages, a damaged water tube, incorrect component orientation, leaking seals, a thermostat problem or other cooling-system faults. Stop operating the engine if overheating continues.
