Installation Notes
- Disconnect the battery and shift linkage before starting.
- Unbolt and carefully lower the gearcase/lower unit from the outboard.
- Locate and unbolt the water pump housing (typically 4-6 bolts).
- Remove the old impeller, noting the direction of the blades. Also remove the old gaskets and wear plate.
- Thoroughly clean the inside of the pump housing and inspect for scoring or corrosion.
- Install the new gasket(s), drive key, and impeller. You can use a light coat of marine grease or soap/water solution inside the housing to help seat the new impeller.
- Turn the driveshaft clockwise while pushing down on the pump housing to correctly orient the impeller blades.
- Tighten the housing bolts to the manufacturer's specified torque.
- Reinstall the lower unit, reconnect the shift linkage, and secure all bolts.
- Connect a water supply (flushing muffs or test tank) and start the engine to verify strong water flow from the tell-tale outlet.
Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if my impeller is failing?
Common signs of a bad impeller include a weak or intermittent water stream from the engine's tell-tale outlet, an engine overheating alarm, or visible damage such as cracked, brittle, or missing blades upon physical inspection.
How often should I replace my impeller?
As a preventative maintenance best practice, inspect your impeller annually and plan to replace it every 1-2 years or 100-200 hours of use, whichever comes first. More frequent changes may be necessary if you operate in sandy, silty, or saltwater conditions.
Will this fit my exact engine model and year?
This impeller fits a range of Tohatsu and Nissan models as detailed in the compatibility tables. Since manufacturers may not provide year ranges for all parts, it is critical to verify the OEM part number (353-65021-0) and compare the dimensions against your existing part before ordering.
Is lubricant required for installation?
Yes, apply a light coat of 2-4-C marine grease or a simple soap and water solution to the interior of the pump housing and the impeller itself. This lubricates the blades, prevents damage during the first dry start-up, and makes installation easier.
What is the difference between a plastic hub and a metal hub?
Both hub types perform well. Plastic hubs are common in modern impellers as they are inherently corrosion-resistant and can act as a fail-safe by breaking away if the pump seizes, potentially protecting the engine's gearcase. This impeller features a durable plastic hub.
