Installation Guide

1. Safety First: Disconnect the battery and remove the spark plug leads.
2. Remove Lower Unit: Shift the outboard into neutral. Unbolt and carefully lower the gearcase (lower unit) from the engine leg.
3. Access the Pump: Locate the water pump housing on top of the lower unit. Remove the bolts securing the housing.
4. Disassemble Old Pump: Lift off the housing. You may need to gently pry it. Remove the old impeller, wear plate, and gaskets. Note the orientation of the impeller vanes.
5. Clean and Prepare: Thoroughly clean all mating surfaces, removing any old gasket material or sealant residue.
6. Install New Components: Place the new lower gasket and stainless steel wear plate onto the gearcase.
7. Install Impeller: Insert the new impeller key into the driveshaft. Slide the new impeller onto the shaft, turning it clockwise to bend the vanes correctly.
8. Install Housing: Apply a thin layer of marine grease to the inside of the new housing. Place the new upper gasket and install the housing over the impeller.
9. Secure and Reassemble: Fasten the housing with the original bolts, tightening them to the manufacturer's specified torque.
10. Reinstall Lower Unit: Carefully guide the lower unit back into place, ensuring the driveshaft, shift shaft, and water tube align properly. Secure it with the mounting bolts.
11. Final Checks: Reconnect the spark plug leads and battery.
12. Test Operation: Start the engine in a test tank or with a flusher attached. Confirm a steady stream of water is exiting the tell-tale port.

Common signs of a failing water pump include the engine overheating, a weak or non-existent water stream from the "telltale" outlet, and visible damage such as cracks or brittleness of the old impeller upon inspection.

How often should I replace my water pump impeller?

For preventative maintenance, it is recommended to inspect and replace your water pump impeller every 1-2 years or every 100-200 hours of operation. Service intervals can vary based on usage conditions (e.g., saltwater vs. freshwater, high-debris environments).
