Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if this impeller kit fits my MerCruiser Bravo drive?
This kit is specifically for MerCruiser Bravo I, II, and III drives that use a two-piece plastic body sea water pump. Please verify your pump type before ordering. It is a direct replacement for OEM part number 47-59362A4.
What are the signs of a failing water pump impeller?
Common signs include higher-than-normal engine operating temperatures, a weak or non-existent stream of water from the tell-tale outlet, and visible cracking or tearing of the impeller vanes upon inspection.
How often should I replace my sea water pump impeller?
For preventative maintenance, it is recommended to inspect your impeller annually and replace it every 1-2 years or every 100-200 hours of operation, depending on usage and water conditions (e.g., sandy or silty water may require more frequent changes).
My engine is overheating, could a bad impeller be the cause?
Yes, a failed or worn-out impeller is one of the most common causes of engine overheating. It prevents the engine from receiving an adequate supply of cooling water.
What is the difference between this impeller and the OEM version?
This is an aftermarket part designed to meet or exceed OEM specifications. It uses high-quality, durable elastomers for flexibility and long service life, offering comparable performance at a better value.
Can I install this impeller kit myself?
Yes, replacing an impeller is a common maintenance task for many boat owners with basic mechanical skills. However, if you are unsure, we always recommend professional installation to ensure safety and proper function.
