Product Details

The kit is supplied without the water-pump housing and is intended to renew the impeller, insert, wear plate, gaskets, O-rings, dowel pins, key, and related pump hardware during water-pump service.
The documented Yamaha reference numbers for this configuration include 61A-W0078-A3-00 and 61A-W0078-A4-00. Because Yamaha used different pump configurations across engine families, confirm the complete engine model, year, stroke, shaft configuration, and original water-pump reference before ordering.
- Aftermarket water-pump repair kit for selected Yamaha outboards.
- Supplied without the water-pump housing.
- Includes an impeller, impeller key, insert cup, wear plate, gaskets, O-rings, dowel pins, and pump fasteners.

Installation Notes
- Disconnect the battery and secure the outboard according to the manufacturer's service procedure.
- Remove the lower unit and drain the gearcase lubricant as required by the service manual.
- Remove the water-pump cover and take out the old impeller, key, gasket, insert, wear plate, O-rings, pins, and related hardware.
- Inspect the reusable housing and driveshaft. Do not install the kit if the housing is damaged or excessively worn.
- Clean all mating surfaces and install the new gasket, insert, wear plate, key, and impeller in the correct order.
- Rotate the driveshaft in the manufacturer's specified direction while seating the impeller vanes in the housing.
- Install the new O-rings, dowel pins, bolts, and washers. Tighten fasteners to the Yamaha service-manual specification for the exact engine.
- Reinstall the lower unit, aligning the driveshaft, shift shaft, and water tube correctly.
- Refill the gearcase with the specified marine lubricant.
- Run the engine only with an adequate water supply and confirm a steady tell-tale stream and normal operating temperature.
Always use the service manual for the exact engine model, serial range, torque values, sealants, and adjustment procedures.
Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I confirm fitment?
Compare the complete engine model, year, stroke, shaft configuration, and original water-pump reference with the compatibility information. The strongest confirmation is a match to 61A-W0078-A3-00 or 61A-W0078-A4-00 together with the correct pump configuration. Horsepower alone is not sufficient.
Does this kit include the water-pump housing?
No. This listing is for a repair kit without the housing. The original housing must be inspected and reused only if it is serviceable.
What are the symptoms of a worn water pump?
Common symptoms include a weak or intermittent tell-tale stream, overheating alarms, steam, elevated operating temperature, or a damaged, brittle, or cracked impeller.
Can I use the kit on any Yamaha 75–300 hp engine?
No. The kit is not confirmed for every Yamaha engine in that horsepower range. Yamaha water-pump parts vary by model, year, stroke, shaft configuration, and serial range. Verify the exact application before purchase.
Is this an OEM Yamaha kit?
No. This is an aftermarket replacement kit. Yamaha reference numbers are used only to identify the intended application and cross-reference the original service parts.
How often should the impeller be serviced?
Inspect the water pump according to the engine manufacturer's maintenance schedule. Replace the impeller sooner when the engine operates in saltwater, sand, silt, or other abrasive conditions, or whenever overheating or reduced tell-tale flow occurs.
Can I install it without a service manual?
Professional installation is recommended. Correct assembly, torque, sealants, lower-unit alignment, and post-installation cooling-system testing depend on the exact engine model.
Safety & Important Information
- Confirm the engine model, year, stroke, serial range, and original part reference before ordering.
- Do not install the kit if the pump housing, driveshaft, or mating surfaces are damaged or outside service limits.
- Never run an outboard without an adequate water supply.
- This is an aftermarket replacement part and is not manufactured by Yamaha.
- Use the exact manufacturer's torque and maintenance specifications for your engine.
