I'm having impeller trouble. I changed it with a Quicksilver kit, but when I start the boat on Muffs, no water comes out the bottom of the drive and the spray off the muffs doesn't change whether engine is on or off. I have great water pressure to the muffs.

PLease help and give some ideas what to check. Thanks in advance!

Re: Bravo One impeller help!!!!

Does any water come out the exhaust relief ports up at the transom?

Re: Bravo One impeller help!!!!

Did you accidently reverse the input and output hoses on the pump? (It happens)

Thats what I meant by bottom of the drive, I just couldn't remember the correct term for it. No, Nothing out the relief.

I might have, I'm about to go recheck things in just a min, I was a little miffed and needed to cool off, before I set the whole dang the on fire. LOL

Thanks for the tip.

Update:

I had the hoses reversed, smoked the impeller, another 80 bucks spent and another new kit on the way.

Re: Bravo One impeller help!!!!

Why did you spend $80 on an entire kit? Why not just $27ish on the impeller?

He probably has a plastic housing, and they get melted too when run dry.

Yep, I just took the edges off the impeller, but rather be safe than sorry. Rather 80.00 than 3500.00for a new engine.

Anybody got a hose routing diagram for a bravo one seawater pump? I don't want to make the same mistake I did already. Thanks in advance!
