  8. Reassemble the water pump housing and torque bolts to manufacturer specifications.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I confirm this kit fits my specific Yamaha F70 model?

Check your engine’s serial number and model year. This kit is designed for all F70LA models produced between 2010 and 2020. You can verify compatibility by matching your model identifier with the list in the "Engine & Model Compatibility" section.

What are the signs of a failing water pump?

Common symptoms include a weak or inconsistent water stream from the engine's tell-tale outlet, engine overheating alarms, or a noticeable decrease in engine performance. A visual inspection may reveal a cracked or brittle impeller.

How often should the water pump impeller be replaced?

As a best practice for preventative maintenance, it is recommended to inspect the impeller annually and replace it every 1-2 years or every 100-200 hours of operation, depending on usage conditions (e.g., saltwater vs. freshwater).

The kit includes a 6H3-44352-00-00 impeller. Is this correct for the F70?

Yes. While the 6H3 series impeller is used across many Yamaha models (40hp-70hp), it is the correct specified component for the F70 engine's water pump assembly within this kit.

What is the difference between this kit and the OEM version?

This is an aftermarket kit designed to meet or exceed original equipment manufacturer (OEM) specifications for fit, form, and function. It uses comparable materials and includes all the necessary components for a full replacement at a more competitive price point.

My engine is still overheating after installing the new kit. What could be wrong?

If overheating persists, verify the impeller was installed with the vanes rotating in the correct direction. Check for blockages in the cooling water passages, thermostat issues, or a faulty pressure control valve. Ensure all gaskets and seals were seated correctly to prevent air leaks.

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?

Covered by a 1-year warranty against manufacturing defects under normal use. If issues arise, contact support with your order details. Returns are accepted within our standard window (unused & in original condition). See our policy page or reach out for instructions.

Safety & Important Info

  • Verify images/specifications vs your original part. If anything differs—even if your model appears compatible—do not purchase.
