    Impeller housing overheating

    The one that didn't work was an Amazon one. Manufacturer UANOFCN. Not sure the one I grabbed from the boat used, that did work. The one that I ordered is a sierra kit. Good to know on the replacement life. I'll keep an eye on it. Thanks again for all the help!

    Impeller housing overheating

    That's what's weird. I ordered the whole kit including the housing. Going forward I'm only ordering OE unless it's not available. Would you say changing it every other year would be too much?

    Impeller housing overheating

    Ok here's the update, the boat sits at a good friends house who's got a shop and property. He's an automotive mechanic who's got everything under the sun to work on cars. Unfortunately he knows zero when it comes to boats. But having the proper equipment is half the battle. The other downside...

    Impeller housing overheating

    I'll double check to see if it sits flush or not. I'll report back. I don't believe it referenced the Sierra number. I'll order the oe omc part number even if the old setup does sit flush. Worst case scenario if it ends up being the same and its something else is wrong I'll have a backup.

    Impeller housing overheating

    That makes sense. I never did pull that off the nipple to see if there's anything flowing out. To clarify, the water should come from out of the housing not the hose? Another suggestion was brought up. Is there any chance that the kit I bought is wrong and the impeller is wider than the...

    Impeller housing overheating

    First post for me, there seems to be a ton of knowable people in here. I've searched for quite some time and nothing this specific has shown up so far. Any help in the right direction would be amazing! I've got an '88 4.3L seaswirl with a cobra outdrive. I was told it leaks from one of the...
