Installation Notes
- Always disconnect the battery and secure the engine before beginning work.
- Drain the gearcase lubricant before removing the lower unit from the outboard motor.
- Carefully unbolt and remove the existing water pump housing.
- Take note of the old impeller's vane direction before removing it, along with the key, plates, and gaskets.
- Thoroughly clean all mating surfaces, removing any old gasket material or corrosion.
- Install the new cartridge insert, outer plate, and O-ring from the kit.
- Slide the new woodruff key onto the driveshaft and install the new impeller. Rotate the driveshaft in its normal clockwise direction to correctly orient the vanes.
- Reinstall the water pump housing and tighten the bolts to the manufacturer's specified torque.
- Reattach the lower unit to the engine and refill the gearcase with fresh lubricant.
- After reassembly, test the engine in water to confirm a strong, steady stream from the tell-tale outlet.
Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if my water pump needs to be replaced?
Common signs of a failing water pump include a weak or inconsistent water stream from the tell-tale outlet, engine overheating alarms, or visible cracks and wear on the impeller during an inspection. As a preventative measure, we recommend replacing the water pump kit every 1-2 years or every 100-200 hours of use.
Will this kit fit an engine model not listed in the table?
This kit is specifically designed for the Yamaha 20-25 HP 2-stroke models listed. If your model is not on the list, this kit may not fit. Always cross-reference the OEM part number (6L2-W0078-00-00) with your engine's service manual to guarantee compatibility.
Is the water pump housing included in this kit?
No, this is a repair kit that includes the internal wear components (impeller, gaskets, plates, etc.). It is designed to rebuild your existing water pump housing assembly.
Why are there two different part numbers for the O-ring?
The two numbers (93210-45161-00 and 93210-37M67-00) are recognized service alternatives for the same O-ring. Both are compatible with the specified applications for this kit.
