  • Water Pump replacement

    I have a 2008 SE 90-106 and need to replace the water pump in the lower unit due to overheating.. what do you recommend for replacement? just the impeller or the whole kit? Is there an installation guide?

    It depends on how bad it overheated. If you caught it right away, you should be able to get away with just the impellers and gaskets. If it got real hot, then you may need a whole kit. You can purchase the parts from us, or from your local supplier, just tell them the year of your boat and that you have the alpha one first generation, don't mention 2008 or they will think you have the newer style drive.

    The installation is very simple, its just important to install the impeller with the vanes pointing the right direction. What I do is install the impeller on the shaft, then bring the housing down on top of it. Then turn the driveshaft clockwise while pushing down on the housing, which will bend the vanes properly.
