Installation Guide

1. Safety First: Disconnect the battery before starting any work.
2. Drain Gear Lube: Place a drain pan under the lower unit and remove the upper and lower drain/vent screws to drain the gear lube completely.
3. Remove Lower Unit: Remove the bolts securing the sterndrive's lower unit. Carefully separate the lower unit from the upper housing.
4. Access the Pump: With the lower unit removed, locate and remove the bolts holding the water pump housing in place.
5. Inspect and Replace Impeller: Lift the housing to expose the impeller. Note the rotational direction of the old impeller's vanes before removing it. Clean the housing interior and install the new impeller.
6. Replace Seals and Gaskets: Carefully replace the gaskets, wear plate, and any seals included in your kit. Ensure all surfaces are clean and properly aligned.
7. Reassemble Pump Housing: Reinstall the water pump housing, ensuring the new gaskets are seated correctly. Torque the bolts to the manufacturer's specification.
8. Reinstall Lower Unit: Carefully guide the lower unit back into place, ensuring the driveshaft, water tube, and shift shaft align. Secure it with the bolts.
9. Refill Gear Lube: Pump fresh, manufacturer-recommended gear lube into the lower drain hole until it flows out of the upper vent hole. Reinstall both screws.
10. Test Operation: Reconnect the battery. Start the engine using a water supply (flushing muffs) and check for a steady stream of water from the tell-tale outlet. Check for leaks around the gearcase.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I confirm this fits my Alpha One Gen II sterndrive?

This kit is specifically for MerCruiser Alpha One Gen II sterndrives with a serial number of D469859 and above, which corresponds to models made in 1991 and newer. Please verify your serial number before purchasing.

What are the signs of a bad water pump impeller?

Common symptoms include the engine overheating at idle or low speeds, a weak or non-existent water stream from the "tell-tale" outlet, and a dry, cracked, or brittle appearance of the impeller vanes upon inspection.

How often should I replace the impeller?

For preventative maintenance, it is recommended to replace your impeller every 100-200 hours of operation or every 1-2 years, whichever comes first. Service intervals should be shorter if you frequently operate in sandy, silty, or saltwater conditions.
