Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if this kit fits my OMC Cobra?
This kit fits OMC Cobra stern drives from 1986–1993, covering engines from 2.3L to 7.5L. Always verify your model and year against the compatibility table and cross-reference your existing part number with OEM numbers 984461 or 984744 to ensure a perfect match.
What are the signs of a failing water pump impeller?
Common symptoms include the engine overheating at idle or low speeds, a weak or nonexistent water stream from the tell-tale outlet, and visible damage like cracks, brittleness, or missing vanes on the old impeller upon inspection.
What is the recommended replacement interval?
For preventative maintenance, we recommend inspecting the impeller annually and replacing it every 1-2 seasons or 100-200 hours of operation. More frequent replacement may be necessary if you regularly operate in saltwater or shallow, debris-heavy waters.
Does this kit include the housing?
Yes, this is a complete kit that contains the water pump housing, impeller, stainless steel wear plate, stainless steel liner, gasket, and O-ring seal for a full replacement.
