Raw water pump


Recommended Posts

Hey guys I have an 89 Malibu skier with mercruiser 350 went to lake today and the bilge came on every 30 mins or so come to find out the raw water pump was cracked just past where the intake hose slides on but before the bracket that bolts to motor is there a replacement piece or do I buy a new one? If so where to buy from? Thanks alot guys

Yea I was looking at skidim but wasn't quite sure what I was looking for I found the little rebuild kit for 80 I think but then seen the pump for nearly 600 just hoping I can replace the crack piece without a whole new pump

Mine cracked too, I bought the $80 rebuild kit. Just be carefull tighting it back up, it says 10 FT lbs and even tightening them down evenly I cracked it somehow. Im pretty sure you can buy just the plastic housing but kit comes with a new impeller. Figured it would save me trouble later.

So what did you do to fixed the cracked new one? Mine is metal I'm pretty sure I scratched it with my knife and it was aluminum but it has 5 bolt holes like the plastic one on skidim I just don't want to buy the wrong thing
