Installation Notes
- Consult your owner's manual for model-specific instructions and safety warnings before you begin.
- Disconnect the battery and remove the engine cover. Disconnect the shift linkage.
- Place the outboard in neutral and remove the bolts securing the lower unit (gearcase) to the engine.
- Carefully lower and remove the gearcase. The driveshaft will disengage from the powerhead.
- Locate the water pump housing on top of the gearcase. Remove the bolts and lift the housing off.
- Remove the old impeller, gasket, and wear plate. Note the direction of the old impeller's blades.
- Clean the housing and plate surfaces thoroughly. Install the new wear plate and gasket.
- Slide the new impeller key into the driveshaft keyway. Align the new impeller's keyway and slide it down.
- Install the new impeller by sliding it onto the driveshaft, rotating the shaft in the direction of engine rotation to seat the blades correctly within the housing.
- Reinstall the water pump housing, ensuring a proper seal. Tighten bolts to the specified torque.
- Re-install the lower unit, ensuring the driveshaft, shift shaft, and water tube align correctly. Fasten the bolts.
- Reconnect the shift linkage and battery. Test the engine cooling system using a flush attachment before open water use.
Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if this impeller fits my Suzuki engine?
This impeller is designed for a wide range of Suzuki 2-stroke (DT series) and 4-stroke (DF series) outboards. The best way to confirm fitment is to check your engine's model and year against the compatibility table on this page. You can also verify by cross-referencing your existing impeller's part number with our Part Number Matrix.
What are the signs of a failing water pump impeller?
Common symptoms include a weak or non-existent "telltale" water stream, engine overheating alarms, a reduction in engine power, or steam from the exhaust. If you notice any of these signs, inspect your water pump immediately.
How often should I replace my impeller?
For preventative maintenance, it is recommended to replace your water pump impeller every 1-2 years or every 100-200 hours of operation, depending on usage conditions. More frequent replacement may be necessary if you operate in sandy, silty, or saltwater environments.
Is this impeller difficult to install?
Installation can be performed by a mechanically inclined individual with the right tools. It involves removing the lower unit of the outboard. If you are not comfortable with this procedure, we strongly recommend professional installation to ensure safety and proper function.
Does this impeller kit include the drive key?
Yes, this kit includes both the neoprene impeller and the required impeller key for a complete installation.
What's the difference between this impeller and the original Suzuki part?
This is an aftermarket part designed to meet or exceed OEM specifications. It is made from high-quality neoprene and hardened nylon, comparable to the original, to ensure reliable performance and durability, but at a more competitive price point.
Is this an OEM part or an aftermarket replacement?
This listing is an aftermarket replacement (not OEM). Built to OEM-level specifications with comparable materials. Manufactured in an ISO 9002 facility, batch-inspected for consistency.
What are your shipping speed and cost?
