2. Position the Engine: Place the engine in a secure, upright position.
3. Drain Gear Lube: Open the drain and vent screws on the lower unit to drain the gearcase oil.
4. Remove Lower Unit: Unbolt the lower unit (gearcase) from the upper engine housing. This may require disconnecting the shift linkage.
5. Access Water Pump: With the lower unit removed, unbolt and lift the water pump housing to expose the impeller and other components.
6. Inspect & Replace: Remove the old impeller, plate, cup, and seals. Clean all surfaces thoroughly.
7. Install New Parts: Install the new components from the kit in the reverse order of removal. Ensure the impeller vanes are oriented correctly.
8. Reassemble: Re-install the water pump housing, followed by the lower unit. Reconnect any shift linkage.
9. Refill & Test: Refill the gearcase with fresh lubricant. Start the engine in a test tank or with a water flusher to confirm a strong water stream from the tell-tale outlet.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I confirm this kit fits my Mercury 2 HP engine?

First, verify your engine is a Model 2A or 2B manufactured between 1984 and 2002. Second, check that your existing part number matches one of the direct replacements listed in our cross-reference table, such as Mercury 46-6885M or 46-80395M.

What are the signs that my water pump needs to be replaced?

Common signs of a failing water pump include the engine overheating, a weak or non-existent stream of water from the “telltale” outlet, or finding a brittle, cracked, or damaged impeller during a routine inspection.

How often should I replace the water pump impeller?

For preventative maintenance, it is recommended to inspect the impeller annually and replace it every 1-2 years or every 100-200 hours of use. Replacement frequency should be increased if operating primarily in saltwater or sandy/silty conditions.
