Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I confirm that this impeller fits my Suzuki engine?
Check the complete model designation, horsepower, stroke, year and serial number against the compatibility information. Also compare the existing impeller’s OEM reference and dimensions. Do not select the part by horsepower alone.
Which OEM reference does this impeller replace?
The primary OEM reference is Suzuki 17461-96312. Catalog cross-references also associate the Sierra 18-3096 application with Suzuki 17461-96301, 17461-96311 and 17461-96312. Confirm the complete engine application before ordering.
Is this a complete water-pump kit?
No. This listing is for one replacement water-pump impeller. A housing, wear plate, gasket, seal and drive key are not confirmed as included.
Does the impeller include the drive key?
The verified product records do not confirm that a drive key is included. Check the original assembly and your service manual to determine whether a separate key is required.
What are the signs of a failing water-pump impeller?
Possible symptoms include weak or missing telltale water flow, overheating, an overheat warning, reduced performance or steam. Stop operating the engine and inspect the cooling system if any of these symptoms occur.
How often should a water-pump impeller be replaced?
Replacement intervals depend on the engine manufacturer’s maintenance schedule and operating conditions. Inspect and replace the impeller at the interval specified in your service manual, especially after use in sand, silt or salt water.
Is this an OEM Suzuki part?
No. This is an aftermarket replacement for the listed Suzuki OEM reference and is not manufactured or branded by Suzuki.
Is professional installation recommended?
Yes. Lower-unit removal and water-pump service require correct alignment and torque procedures. If you are unfamiliar with outboard service, use a qualified marine technician.
What are the shipping speed and cost?
Typical transit is 5–15 days. Standard shipping is free where offered; available expedited options and delivery estimates are shown at checkout.
What is the warranty and return policy?
Warranty coverage and return terms are governed by the applicable store policy. Contact support with your order details if you need assistance.
Safety & Important Information
- Verify the complete model, year, stroke, suffix and serial-number range before purchase.
- Compare the replacement impeller with the original part, including outside diameter, inside diameter, height, vane style and drive-key arrangement.
- Do not operate an outboard with inadequate cooling-water flow or an overheating warning.
- This is an aftermarket replacement, not an OEM Suzuki component.
- Professional installation is recommended when lower-unit removal or cooling-system service is outside your experience.
