Installation Guide

1. Safety First: Disconnect the battery and ensure the engine is in a secure, stable position.
2. Access the Lower Unit: Drain the gearcase oil. Remove the bolts securing the lower unit (gearcase) to the engine's midsection and carefully lower it.
3. Remove the Old Pump: Locate the water pump housing on top of the gearcase. Unbolt and remove the housing to expose the impeller.
4. Inspect and Clean: Take out the old impeller, key, and gaskets. Thoroughly clean all mating surfaces, removing any old gasket material or debris.
5. Install New Components: Place the new gaskets and wear plate. Insert the new impeller key into the driveshaft and slide the new impeller on, turning the shaft clockwise to bed the vanes.
6. Reassemble: Install the new seals, O-rings, and housing. Ensure all bolts are torqued to manufacturer specifications.
7. Reinstall Lower Unit: Guide the lower unit back into place, ensuring the driveshaft, shift shaft, and water tube align correctly. Secure with bolts.
8. Final Checks: Refill the gearcase with fresh oil. Reconnect the battery and test the engine using a water supply (flushing muffs) to confirm proper water flow from the tell-tale outlet.
