- Install the new wear plate, gaskets, and seals as provided in the kit.
- Insert the new impeller into the housing, rotating the driveshaft clockwise to bend the vanes into the correct position.
- Reinstall the water pump housing, ensuring all components are properly seated. Torque bolts to manufacturer specifications.
- Reattach the lower unit to the engine and reconnect the battery.

Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if this impeller kit fits my specific engine?
This kit fits a broad range of Mercury/Mariner outboards (40-250HP) and MerCruiser Alpha One Gen 2 stern drives. The best way to confirm is by checking your engine's model, serial number, and year against the compatibility chart on this page. Cross-referencing your old part number with our Part Number Matrix is also highly recommended.
What are the signs of a failing water pump impeller?
Common symptoms include the engine overheating at idle or low speeds, a weak or inconsistent water stream from the "telltale" outlet, and visible cracks, stiffness, or damage to the old impeller's rubber vanes upon inspection.
How often should the water pump impeller be replaced?
As a critical preventive maintenance item, we recommend replacing the impeller every 1-2 years or every 100-200 hours of operation. Intervals can vary based on usage conditions (e.g., saltwater vs. freshwater, high-debris environments). Always consult your engine's service manual for the manufacturer's recommended schedule.
Do I need special tools for installation?
While an experienced mechanic can perform the replacement with standard hand tools, a torque wrench is essential for correctly tightening housing bolts to prevent leaks or damage. This kit also includes a face seal setting tool. Always follow the procedures outlined in your engine's official service manual for safety and accuracy.
