Installation Notes

  1. Disconnect the battery and shift the outboard into neutral.
  2. Remove the lower unit (gearcase) by unbolting it from the engine's midsection. You may need to disconnect a speedometer tube.
  3. Place the lower unit on a workbench and remove the bolts securing the water pump housing cover.
  4. Slide the housing off the driveshaft, exposing the old impeller. Remove the old impeller and woodruff key.
  5. Clean any debris or gasket residue from the housing, base plate, and driveshaft. Inspect components for scoring or warping.
  6. Install the new woodruff key, then slide the new impeller onto the driveshaft, rotating clockwise to bed the vanes.
  7. Install the new gaskets, plates, and housing components as included in the kit.
  8. Lightly grease the housing interior and re-install it over the impeller. Tighten the bolts to the manufacturer's specified torque.
  9. Re-install the lower unit, ensuring the driveshaft, shift shaft, and water tube align correctly. Secure all bolts.
  10. Reconnect the battery and test the engine using a water source (flushing muffs or in water). Confirm a steady stream from the tell-tale outlet.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I know if my water pump needs to be replaced?

The most common sign of a failing water pump is a weak or absent water stream from the engine's tell-tale (peephole) outlet. Other indicators include engine overheating alarms, steam from the exhaust, or a prematurely worn impeller found during routine maintenance. For preventative care, it is recommended to replace the impeller annually or every 100 hours of use.

Why are there two different sizes of bolts included in the kit?

The inclusion of two sets of bolts (97095-08045-00 and 97095-08055-00) accommodates slight variations in water pump housing designs across the wide range of compatible engine years and models. Simply match the new bolts to the size of your original hardware and discard the unused set.

My Yamaha model is listed, but the year range is missing. Will this kit fit?

If your engine model is listed but the year is not specified, this kit is likely a match. However, to guarantee fitment, always compare your original part numbers to those in the Part Number Matrix or check photos against your existing parts before ordering. Yamaha often uses the same core components across many years.

Is this a complete kit, or do I need other parts?

This is a comprehensive repair kit containing the impeller, housing insert, outer plate, gaskets, key, and mounting bolts. It includes all the typical wear items needed for a standard water pump service. You should not need any other parts unless your existing housing is cracked or severely corroded.
