Product Overview
Water pump repair kit for Suzuki DF4, DF5 and DF6 four-stroke outboards and for the Suzuki built Johnson and Evinrude 4 HP, 5 HP and 6 HP four-strokes, containing the impeller, the stainless wear plate, the drive key and the case gasket in a 150 x 100 x 40 mm (5.9 x 3.9 x 1.6 in) pack weighing 68 g (2.4 oz). It replaces Suzuki 17400-98660, 17400-98661, 17400-986L0, 17400-986L1 and 17400-986L2, the OMC numbers 5033379, 5034323 and 0769680, and crosses to Sierra 18-3266 and GLM 12316, 15210 and 15410. Shipped from our Germany local warehouse.
These are the motors that push a 26 to 32 foot sailboat in and out of a marina, and that duty is the hardest a small pump sees: hours at idle in gear, long spells sitting, and then a burst of revs against a headwind. Water flow at idle has to be enough to keep the head cool with no ram effect from boat speed.
The kit contains the whole wear surface for a pump this size. Leaving out the stainless plate is the usual mistake, and a grooved plate will chew a new impeller within a season.

Auxiliary Duty and Idle Hours
| Use | Why the Pump Suffers | What to Check |
|---|---|---|
| Sailboat auxiliary, hours in gear at idle | No ram pressure, flow depends on the pump alone | Telltale strength at idle |
| Tender or dinghy on a mooring | Long spells unused, blades set | Impeller at the start of the season |
| Motor tilted out of the water | Pump drains and dries out | Blades cracked at the root |
| Shallow marina sill, silty water | Silt drawn through the pump | Wear plate and housing |
| Winter ashore on a bracket | Frost and dryness | Full kit before launch |
| Long run at full throttle against wind | Pump at maximum demand | Coolant telltale at speed |
Fitting Notes
| Step | Action |
|---|---|
| 1 | Check the model and year, the DF4A and DF6A from 2017 take the same pump as the earlier DF4 and DF6 |
| 2 | Confirm the motor is the four-stroke J4, J5 or J6, the Suzuki built two-strokes do not use this kit |
| 3 | Inspect the housing and cup for scoring before fitting, a grooved housing wears a new impeller quickly |
| 4 | Fit the stainless plate from the kit, reusing a worn plate is why new impellers fail early |
| 5 | Seat the drive key, then check the impeller turns with the shaft by hand |
| 6 | Lubricate with glycerine and fold the blades in the direction of rotation |
| 7 | Run on muffs and confirm a strong telltale at idle before the boat leaves the slip |
| 8 | At the end of the season flush the motor and store it tilted down so the pump drains |
