Installation Notes

  1. Disconnect the engine's battery and shift the outboard into neutral.
  2. Drain the gearcase oil and remove the lower unit (gearcase) from the outboard motor.
  3. Locate and unbolt the water pump housing cover.
  4. Note the rotational direction of the old impeller blades before removal.
  5. Remove the old impeller, key, and gaskets. Thoroughly clean the housing interior.
  6. Install the new impeller by turning the driveshaft clockwise while pushing down, ensuring the blades are correctly oriented.
  7. Reassemble the water pump housing with new gaskets (sold separately) and torque bolts to manufacturer specifications.
  8. Reinstall the lower unit, refill with gearcase oil, and reconnect the battery.
  9. Start the engine in water and verify a steady stream from the "tell-tale" water outlet.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I know if my impeller is failing?

Common signs of a worn or damaged impeller include a weak or nonexistent water stream from the engine's tell-tale outlet, an engine temperature alarm, or visible steam from the exhaust. Upon inspection, you might find cracked, brittle, or missing impeller blades.

How often should I replace the water pump impeller?

For preventative maintenance, it is best practice to inspect the impeller annually and replace it every 1-2 years or every 100-200 hours of engine use. Replacement frequency should be increased if operating primarily in saltwater or sandy/silty conditions.

Does this impeller kit include gaskets or the housing?

This product includes the impeller only, as detailed in the "What’s in the Box" section. Gaskets, wear plates, and other water pump repair components are sold separately.

Is this part difficult to install myself?

Replacing an impeller is a common maintenance task that can be performed by a mechanically inclined owner with the right tools. However, it involves removing the lower unit, which can be heavy and complex. If you are not confident, professional installation is recommended to ensure safety and correct function.
