Impeller fin direction

[Beachrights]

Ok- stupid question I know but need to find correct answer- When installing a new Impeller (OMC drive) which way should the fins be facing when looking at installed Impeller-meaning, the fins are curved to left or right? I have seen videos of both ways and can't find a definitive answer.

You want to turn your impeller clockwise while installing it into the housing.

So this is what it should look like installed in the housing correct? High tech drawing

Correct. Looking at it from the open side of the housing.

Beautiful! Thanks for the quick info- now how the hell do I delete this posting? I stupidly put my email as my user name and want to delete.

Your username is showing up as Beachrights, not an email address. Is that what you want it be?

Yes- I changed it a few minutes ago so the change just took effect- thanks!

Cool. I thought the forum software allowed for that, so wanted to make sure we were good.
