Water Pump Impeller 6F5-44352-00 for Yamaha Mariner 40 HP Outboard 1990-1997 18-3088
Water Pump Impeller 6F5-44352-00 for Yamaha Mariner 40 HP Outboard 1990-1997 18-3088
Product Overview
Water pump impeller, a direct replacement part for Yamaha and Mariner 40 HP outboards built from 1990 to 1997. It replaces Yamaha 6F5-44352-00 and Mercury 99971M and 83397M, and crosses to Mallory 9-45606 and Sierra 18-3088. The impeller is 69.97 mm outside diameter, 22.12 mm tall, on a 16.24 mm hub, with 6 blades.
This is the rubber impeller inside the water pump on the lower unit. It turns with the driveshaft and pushes cooling water up to the powerhead, and it is the first part to fail when a motor sits between trips.
The blades are neoprene on a hardened nylon hub, and the drive is by key. Both the Yamaha and the Mariner versions of the 40 HP use the same pump, which is why one impeller covers both brands.
The fitment is one horsepower and one year range: Yamaha 40 HP, 1990 to 1997, in the C40 and CV40 model codes listed below. Check the model code on the cowling before ordering.
