Installation Notes
- Disconnect the battery and shift the outboard into neutral.
- Unbolt and remove the lower unit (gearcase) from the outboard's driveshaft housing. You may need to disconnect the shift linkage.
- Locate and unbolt the water pump housing, typically found on top of the gearcase.
- Carefully remove the old impeller, housing, wear plate, gaskets, and seals. Note the orientation of the impeller vanes.
- Clean all mating surfaces thoroughly, removing any old gasket material or corrosion.
- Install the new components from the kit in the reverse order of removal. Lightly grease the new impeller and insert it while turning the driveshaft clockwise to seat the vanes correctly.
- Ensure all gaskets are properly aligned and torque the housing bolts to the manufacturer's specification.
- Reinstall the lower unit, connect the shift linkage, and test the engine in the water, confirming a steady stream from the tell-tale outlet.
Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I confirm this kit fits my engine?
Check your engine's model, horsepower, and year against the compatibility table. For Mariner models, you must also verify your engine's serial number prefix matches the one listed in the notes.
What are the signs of a failing water pump impeller?
Common symptoms include the engine overheating at idle or low speeds, a weak or non-existent water stream from the "tell-tale" outlet, and in some cases, a faint burning rubber smell from the exhaust.
How often should I replace my outboard's impeller?
As a best practice for preventative maintenance, it is recommended to replace the impeller every 1-2 years or every 100-200 hours of use, whichever comes first, even if no issues are apparent. Refer to your engine's service manual for specific intervals.
What's the difference between the Yamaha -A6, -A4, and -04 kits?
These are superseded part numbers from Yamaha. The -A6 part is the most recent OEM version, but this aftermarket kit is designed to replace all of them, providing the same fit and function.
My Mariner model is listed as "All Years". How do I confirm fitment?
For the Mariner 20C, 25C, and 30A models, compatibility depends on the manufacturing run, which is identified by the serial number (S/N) prefix. You must ensure your engine's S/N prefix is either '6A9' or '684' as specified in our compatibility table.
Is this an OEM part or an aftermarket equivalent?
This listing is for a high-quality aftermarket replacement part, not an OEM component. It has been manufactured in an ISO 9002 certified facility to meet or exceed OEM specifications for material and performance, and is batch-inspected for consistency.
How fast will my order ship?
We ship worldwide, with most orders arriving within 5–15 business days. We offer free standard shipping, and expedited options are available at checkout for most destinations.
What is the warranty and return policy?

Unused parts in their original condition can be returned within our standard return window; check our policy page or contact us for details.
