I have a 2006 Honda 200HP Outboard. I am wondering if changing the impeller in the water pump is something that most do preventive and how often.
Motor had <60 hours on it when I got late fall of 16 and I put probably 50 hours on it since that time.
Also Is there a complete kit that has the gaskets, impeller and plate.
Thank you

There are a couple rules of thumb here based on years of experience #1 calendar = every ten years if you use it or not # 2 every 800 hours if you use it only in deep clean water if you for example go in and out of burns ditch ( shallow muddy always churning up the bottom). you will want to change it every other year
note ! thermostats should be taken out cleaned every time a water pumps is serviced replaced every 800 hours or when inspecting they they are corroded or damaged
complete water pump kits are recommended the replacement is necessary complete kit will last longer than replacing a impeller alone
changing water pump before a motor throws a overheat code greatly improves the ability to eventually resell the motor and boat package as well as help it hold its value

Thank You. What temp does it take to throw an overhead code and does it matter the time it was at a temp. This is not my video but can anyone see the obvious problem in this video? www.youtube.com/watch?v=CSq13vJIozs

This is not my video but can anyone see the obvious problem in this video? www.youtube.com/watch?v=CSq13vJIozsthere are 3 temp sensors in a V6 Honda one in each exhaust manifold with a higher threshold one in the engine block using Honda software we can view history and will indicate the time stamp and what sensor has triggered what is NOT recommended is doing any cooling system dig with a engine on ear muffs some easy steps that will commonly repair 90% of non water pump related cooling systems problems remove clean test or just replace bother thermostats with engine running in water remove both exhaust manifold bypass hoses (the little ones at the bottom) check for good water flow compressed air can be used to clear any / most restrictions re accuring false alarms are often idetified with engine software by turning on a cold motor and reading their values on a cold motor all sensor values should be the same reading the same as ambient air temp
