Water Pump and Intakes

External water intakes mounted in the gearcase
housing collect water and must supply the inlet
side of the water pump with an unrestricted and
unaerated water supply. Water is drawn into the
water pump through a hole in the lower plate of
the water pump assembly. All cooling water to the
powerhead is provided by the water pump.
•
A nylon wedge (impeller key) is used to engage
the impeller bushing and driveshaft.
•
The nylon impeller housing with liner must seal
against a separate water pump plate.
•
The bottom plate MUST seal to gearcase.
Refer to WATER PUMP SERVICE on p. 250 for
