Installation Notes

  1. Disconnect the battery and shift the outboard into neutral.
  2. Drain the gearcase oil before unbolting and carefully lowering the lower unit (gearcase).
  3. Locate and unbolt the water pump housing cover.
  4. Remove the old impeller, noting its rotational direction. Clean any debris from the housing.
  5. Slide the new impeller onto the driveshaft, using the key to lock it in place.
  6. Turn the driveshaft clockwise to bend the blades correctly while sliding the housing down over the impeller.
  7. Re-install the water pump housing and torque bolts to manufacturer specifications.
  8. Re-attach the lower unit, refill the gearcase oil, and reinstall the propeller.
  9. Start the engine in water and verify that a steady stream of water is exiting the "telltale" outlet at all RPMs.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I confirm this impeller is correct for my engine?

Check our "Engine & Model Compatibility" table. It's crucial to match your engine's brand, model, HP, and year. For some Yamaha models, you may also need to check the serial number. If in doubt, compare the dimensions and part numbers listed here with your old part.

What are the signs of a bad water pump impeller?

Common symptoms include a weak or non-existent water stream from the "telltale" outlet, engine overheating alerts, and, in severe cases, steam coming from the exhaust.

How often should I change my impeller?

As a general maintenance rule, it’s recommended to inspect your impeller annually and replace it every 1-2 years or every 100-200 hours of use, depending on operating conditions (e.g., saltwater vs. freshwater).

Is the woodruff key for the impeller shaft included?

This kit includes the impeller only. The impeller key is not included. Please ensure you retain your existing key or source one separately if needed.

My engine is overheating, but the telltale stream looks okay. Could it still be the impeller?

While a weak stream is a key indicator, it's not the only one. An impeller with worn, stiff, or damaged blades may not generate enough pressure to cool the engine adequately at higher RPMs, even if the low-speed stream appears normal. Also check for blockages in the cooling water passages.
