Installation Guide

1. Disconnect the shift linkage and remove the bolts securing the lower unit. Carefully separate the lower unit from the upper casing.
2. Locate the water pump and remove the housing screws to access the impeller.
3. Take note of the old impeller's blade direction before removing it. Remove the old gaskets and wear plate.
4. Thoroughly clean all mating surfaces, removing any old gasket material or debris.
5. Install the new wear plate and gasket.
6. Slide the new impeller onto the driveshaft. Turn the driveshaft clockwise while pushing down on the impeller to seat the blades correctly inside the pump cup.
7. Place the new pump cup and gasket onto the assembly.
8. Install the new housing and tighten the screws in a star pattern to ensure an even seal.
9. Reinstall the lower unit, making sure the driveshaft, shift shaft, and water tube are correctly aligned.
10. Secure the lower unit with its mounting bolts and reconnect the shift linkage.
11. Before starting the engine, supply water to the lower unit using a flush device ("muffs") to check for proper water flow from the tell-tale outlet.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

Q: How do I know if this kit fits my outboard?

A: This kit is specifically for Johnson/Evinrude 5.5HP & 6HP (1954–1979) and 7.5HP (1954–1958) models that use a plastic pump housing. Check the compatibility table and visually confirm your engine has a plastic housing before ordering.

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

A: Common signs of a bad impeller include the engine overheating at low speeds, a weak or non-existent water stream from the "tell-tale" outlet, or finding cracked, brittle, or melted blades on the old impeller during an inspection.

Q: How often should the impeller be replaced?

A: For preventative maintenance, we recommend inspecting the impeller annually and replacing it every 1-2 years, depending on usage. If you frequently operate in sandy, silty, or saltwater environments, more frequent replacement may be necessary.
