Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I confirm this kit fits my specific engine?
The most reliable way is to match your engine's model, year, and serial number against the compatibility tables above. If your OEM part number is listed in our Part Number Matrix (e.g., 46-803750A03 or 3B2-87322-2), this kit is a confirmed fit.
What are the signs of a failing water pump impeller?
Common symptoms include a weak or non-existent "telltale" water stream, engine overheating alarms, and reduced engine performance. Visible signs on the old impeller include cracked, brittle, or missing vanes and a glazed or melted appearance.
How often should I replace my impeller?
For preventative maintenance, it's recommended to replace the impeller every 1-2 years or every 100-200 hours of use, whichever comes first. Usage in saltwater or sandy/silty conditions may require more frequent inspections and replacements.
Is there a difference in installing this on a 2-stroke vs. a 4-stroke model?
The fundamental process of accessing and replacing the impeller in the lower unit is very similar for both 2-stroke and 4-stroke engines listed. However, torque specifications for bolts and specific disassembly steps may vary. Always consult a service manual for your specific engine model if unsure.
What happens if I install the impeller with the vanes facing the wrong direction?
Installing the impeller with its vanes curved in the opposite direction of the driveshaft's rotation will result in poor water flow and will cause the pump to fail, leading to rapid engine overheating. The vanes should curve back, opposite to the direction of rotation.
OEM vs. Aftermarket?
This listing is an aftermarket replacement (not OEM). Built to OEM-level specifications with comparable materials. Manufactured in an ISO 9002 facility, batch-inspected for consistency.
Shipping speed & cost?
We ship worldwide quickly—typical transit 5–15 days. Standard shipping is free; expedited options appear at checkout where available.
Warranty & returns?

Safety & Important Info
- Verify images/specifications vs your original part. If anything differs—even if your model appears compatible—do not purchase.
