Installation Notes
- Disconnect the battery and shift the outboard into neutral.
- Unbolt and carefully lower the gearcase (lower unit) from the engine midsection.
- Remove the water pump housing bolts and lift the housing off the driveshaft.
- Take note of the rotational direction of the old impeller's vanes before removal.
- Remove the old impeller, woodruff key, wear plate, and any gaskets.
- Thoroughly clean all mating surfaces, removing any old gasket material or corrosion.
- Install the new gasket and wear plate onto the gearcase.
- Slide the woodruff key into its slot on the driveshaft and guide the new impeller down over it.
- Apply a light lubricant to the inside of the pump housing, then install it while turning the driveshaft clockwise to correctly bend the impeller vanes.
- Tighten the housing bolts to the manufacturer's specified torque.
- Reinstall the lower unit, ensuring all shift linkages and splines are aligned, and tighten mounting bolts.
- Reconnect the battery and test the engine in water, confirming a strong, steady stream from the cooling system's tell-tale outlet.
Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if my water pump impeller is failing?
The most common sign is a weak, intermittent, or completely absent stream of water from the engine's "tell-tale" outlet. Other indicators include engine overheating alarms, steam from the exhaust, or finding brittle, cracked, or melted rubber vanes on the impeller during a physical inspection.
How often should this kit be used for maintenance?
For preventative maintenance and to ensure engine reliability, it is best practice to inspect the impeller annually. We recommend replacing the impeller and gaskets every 1 to 2 years or every 100-200 hours of operation, whichever comes first. Usage in saltwater or silty conditions may require more frequent service.
Will this kit fit my Suzuki DT50 or DT60 model?
This kit is only confirmed for Suzuki DT55, DT65, and PU55 JET models (1985–1997). While some third-party sources may suggest compatibility with DT50 or DT60 engines, this is not consistently verified. We strongly advise you to check your part number against the references in our Part Number Matrix to guarantee fitment.
