- Install the new gasket and lower panel (wear plate) onto the gearcase.
- Slide the new Woodruff key into its slot on the driveshaft.
- Install the new impeller, turning the driveshaft clockwise to bend the vanes in the correct direction.

Troubleshooting & FAQ
What are the signs of a failing water pump impeller?
Common signs include a weak or intermittent water stream from the "tell-tale" outlet, engine overheating alarms or limp mode activation, and visible damage like cracks, tears, or brittleness on the impeller vanes upon inspection.
How often should I replace my impeller?
For preventative maintenance, we recommend inspecting the impeller annually and replacing it every 2-3 years or 200-300 operating hours, whichever comes first. Replacement is crucial if operating frequently in saltwater or silty/sandy conditions.
Will this kit fit an engine model not listed in the compatibility table?
Do not assume fitment. This kit is specifically designed for the Suzuki models, years, and horsepower ratings shown. To avoid compatibility issues, please verify your engine details and cross-reference the OEM part number with our Part Number Matrix before purchasing.
What is the main difference between this impeller and the OEM part?
Our impeller is manufactured to meet or exceed original equipment manufacturer (OEM) specifications for fit, material composition, and performance. The primary difference is that it is an aftermarket part, offering comparable quality at a more accessible price.
OEM vs. Aftermarket?
This listing is an aftermarket replacement (not OEM). It is built to OEM-level specifications with comparable materials and manufactured in an ISO 9002 facility, where it is batch-inspected for consistency.
