How
to
Repair
an
Outboard
Water
Pump
By
Johan
Ramaker
“What
is
a
water
pump
and
why
is
it
important
to
me
and
my
outboard
motor.
Well
this
is
very
easy
to
explain
and
once
you
take
the
time
to
read
this
article
you
should
be
able
to
change
your
own
water
pump.”
“The
water
pump
is
the
devise
that
pumps
raw
water
up
from
the
lower
unit
to
the
top
of
the
motor
that
keeps
your
engine
cooled
while
in
use.
The
water
pump
is
made
of
a
rubber
plastic
material
that
needs
to
be
replaced
once
a
year,
mayby
more
depending
on
the
amount
of
use
and
the
conditions
you
boat
in.”
“First
lets
talk
about
whats
bad
for
your
water
pump
and
why.
Sand,
mud,
small
shells
and
water
that
is
high
in
turbidity
are
all
bad
for
your
water
pump
and
it's
proper
operation.
All
of
these
elements
work
like
sand
paper
against
your
water
pump
impellers
and
wear
on
the
S/S
cup
it
is
housed
in.
Most
of
us
do
not
intentionally
go
into
areas
that
are
so
shallow
we
hit
bottom
or
boat
in
places
that
are
extremely
high
in
turbidity.
But
when
we
do,
our
water
pump
and
its
components
are
all
being
battered
and
ultimately
taking
away
from
their
lifespan.
Another
factor
in
the
life
expectancy
of
a
water
pump
is
how
long
it
has
been
in
use
in
your
outboard
and
how
many
times
it
has
been
used
with
no
water
running
through
it.
All
manufactures
highly
recommend
to
change
the
water
pump
every
year
regardless
of
how
little
use
it
has
seen.
Each
manufacturer
understands
that
the
water
pump
is
essential
to
the
operation
of
your
outboard
and
without
the
water
pump
you
cannot
run
the
engine,
not
even
on
a
get
home
mode.”
