Installation Guide

1. Safety First: Disconnect the battery and remove the propeller before starting.
2. Drain Gear Lube: Place a drain pan under the lower unit and remove the upper and lower gear lube drain screws to drain the oil.
3. Drop the Lower Unit: Remove the bolts securing the lower unit to the engine's midsection. Carefully lower the unit and disconnect the shift shaft if necessary.
4. Access the Water Pump: With the lower unit on a workbench, remove the bolts securing the water pump housing.
5. Remove Old Components: Lift off the housing and slide the old impeller off the driveshaft. Remove the wear plate, gaskets, and seals. Note the orientation of all parts.
6. Clean and Inspect: Thoroughly clean all mating surfaces and inspect the driveshaft for any scoring or damage.
7. Install New Parts: Assemble the new components in reverse order. Lightly grease the new impeller and install the new wedge key, gaskets, seals, and wear plate.
8. Seat the Impeller: When installing the housing over the new impeller, rotate the driveshaft clockwise to help the impeller vanes fold correctly into place.
9. Reassemble: Torque the housing bolts to the manufacturer's specification. Reattach the lower unit to the engine, ensuring the driveshaft, water tube, and shift shaft are correctly aligned.
10. Refill and Test: Install the new drain screw gaskets and refill the lower unit with the correct gear lube. Start the engine using a water supply (flushing muffs) and check for a strong, steady water stream from the tell-tale.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

Q: How do I confirm this kit fits my specific engine?

A: The best way is to check the "Compatible Engine Models" table on this page. Cross-referencing your engine's model, HP, and year is the most reliable method. You can also verify by matching the part numbers listed in the "Part Number Cross-Reference" table with your existing part.

Q: What are the common signs of a failing water pump impeller?

A: The most common symptom is engine overheating, especially at low speeds or idle. You may also notice a weak or nonexistent water stream from the "tell-tale" outlet. A brittle, cracked, or deformed impeller upon inspection confirms the need for replacement.

Q: How often should I replace my water pump impeller?

A: As a general maintenance rule, it's recommended to replace the impeller every 1-2 years or every 100-200 hours of operation. This interval should be shorter if you frequently operate in saltwater, silty, or sandy conditions.
