If a motor sits a lot those vanes can take a permanent set and the material gets hard. Pamper that etec…….there are no more coming. This was a good video. When I was doing thus for the first time, I had to watch 5 of them to assemble enough information. Yours is pretty clear.
Thank you so much for sharing, I live in Norway. The prise of an regular 300h service including the impeller change is close to 1/3 of the price of a brand new engine. Thank you again, this is very useful.
So, besides KITTY!, thanks for the video. The tip to use a ladder to support the lower unit was easily worth the price of admission. I would say, the instructions with the kit state to insert the impeller key and slide down the impeller to trap it before mounting the driveshaft. I did it as listed, and it took seconds, just needing a tap on a 2x4 to completely seat the impeller over the key. Secondly, when torquing a set of fasteners, one shouldn't work clockwise or counterclockwise, but in a diagonally opposed fashion. Doing it as you did will allow the housing to flex, and result in inconsistently tight fasteners. If numbered 1-6 in a clockwise fashion, I torqued 1-4-6-3-2-5. I went around a second time, and nothing moved.
Hello, I need help buying pistons and rings for my 2010 Evinrude Etec 25. I'm from Brazil and they're not available here. If anyone knows where I can get them, I'd be grateful.
I run it in saltwater so I figured it was time to inspect the thermostat. The other springs in the water pump kit are for earlier etecs pre 2011 I believe. You won’t need the springs for newer etec water pumps
@@robgrasso1605 My instructions said for 2010 and newer models, the impeller and springs should be replaced as a set. The springs go in the thermostat. Thanks for the video.

Wow! That is expensive. No problem, glad you found it useful

Thank you for the video. Why were you changing the thermostat? Other springs mentioned?
