i like it how his son worked it out 😂 good one for letting the boys be involved, they'll work lots of other stuff out in the future with that kind of experience.
Absolutely! I’ve always made my boys get out to help me fix things. My Daddy did me the same way so today I can do some things for myself. Thanks for the comment!
Have you experienced this before? i tested it on a suzuki dt2, they pins will just bow/swap direction of the motor. i dont think its much of a problem. Maybe it does on a older impeller thats more stiff.
@@williamtunnell i meant the blades of the propellor wil automatically align correctly do the rotation of the shaft. But if you can do it the right way from the start it better for sure.
Thanks John! I actually had to buy it off Amazon and it came all the way from China! Nobody local had it. It took a while to get here, but works perfectly.
@@williamtunnell you're a fantastic motorman run 15 of them every day for work. . We run tenders on houseboats with them. Because they are a great little motor .
Oh man, I got it off Amazon and it was taking forever to come in - somewhere in China - but I got another one ordered from L&L Marine in Northport, AL, and it came in promptly.

@@williamtunnell I'm looking for the spit water (pee hole, pilot hole, tell tale) I saw on your clip is come out from the top. I wonder what model does you have. my is 3sf i think it made in 1989 or from that (1989-1997). Looking for where the water come out to cool the motor. my water pump impeller, still good. Thank you for your time
Hi fellow! Always put the impeller first,then the impeller s house...so...put the impeller s pin in the corect position,pull down on the shaft the impeller,put some grease,just a bit in the impeller house,after u put the impeller,come with the impeller s house...in the same time turn the shaft in the clockwise direction pulling the impeller house down. This way u ll be sure the impeller s pallets r in the correct position. The way u was doing u risk that not all the pallets to be in the corect position,in this case the impeller it will be faster damaged. Good luck nd regards from Romania 🇲🇩 Europe!!!

The impeller must be turned into housing the same way that it normally turns!
Will be damaged if not.

@ReasonanceHead no, I haven’t. Sounds like that would not pump water as good.

Nice video! I got one of these engines recently and the impeller doesn't work and I was wondering how I was going to need to fix it. Very informative!

That's exactly how the Impaler works it's tight on one side so that it creates suction and why they always need to be in water to not heat impeller
Thank you! It’s been working good!

Could you send me a link to where you purchased the impeller kit.

May I know what model is it? I got a yamaha 3hp too, model 3sf. Can't find where the telltale is.
What are you looking for? I don’t really know what model it is. I’ll look.

Hey brother - sorry it took so long. The Model is 3MSHR. There a code too: 6L5 S.
Wont have a tell tale jet just a little vent outlet that splutters exhaust and water out.
Good job.
Thanks David - she runs good

Thank you so much sir! I did not put any grease in there and that’s a great idea. I needed you when I was doing this the first time. Haha!!!
