Everything you need for the alpha1 sub unit impeller kit.

1975 Mercury 85 hp - Very low price, very extensive range of parts. I believe they even give you o-rings for the water pump base. OEM quality. With this kit, it took me 40 minutes to remove the lower assembly, replace the impeller and all components, and reinstall the lower assembly. I will buy again.

Pros
  • Water pumps
Cons
  • Negative available

Fits and works for Engine Cooling and Air Conditioning

Parts are thinner than original parts and there are no instructions revealing the secrets of their assembly. Purchase a manual before attempting water impeller maintenance. Other than that I followed the manual and the new parts work and it was less than half the price of the nearest comparable rebuild kit. Also includes seals for various sterndrive configurations.

  • Replacement Parts

Broken Pump - Parts

Everything fit perfectly and seemed to be of good quality but after a few weeks my water pressure dropped. After removing the pump for inspection, the small tab that aligns the impeller cup and prevents the cup from rotating in the plastic housing broke off (I'm guessing it's in my motor somewhere now). The cup spun, wearing down the water pump housing and making a nice groove on the propshaft. Now it has been replaced by a normal water pump. It could have been an isolated case, I don't know…

Pros
  • Car
Cons
  • Quick Instructions
