Hi guys, i need to change the impellor in my outboard pre season as it's past its best. Got the new manual in the post this week, vague to say the least, so i'm looking for an independent dealer in the Poole area who knows Mariners. If i can avoid using main dealers then all the better, unless anyone knows different, as they're expensive. We're talking mid 90's 2 stroke 60HP. Any help very welcome! sad.gif

Jimbo,

 

I had one of those on my Wilson Flyer.

 

Make sure she is in neutral and keep it there!!!

 

Unsrew the lower end and drop it off taking care with the shaft.

 

Don't cycle the powerhead.

 

Pad and support the skegg in a vice taking care to hold firmly but gently.

 

The impellor is under a cup which you should remove.

 

Replace with new impellor lightly greased with PTFE(?) grease supplied and re-assemble in reverse order taking care not to disturb the gear change or the drive shaft. This will help with re-alignment/location. If it doesn't slot in easily wriggle it a little, don't force it! huh.gif

 

This is from memory but is basically there.

 

If in doubt, phone Sam Trickett. I gave him my workshop DVD.

I'm sure Tony at Select Marine will look after you. I used him for 7 years when I had a Mariner with no problems or upsets.
