Default Re: 93 Suzuki V6 200HP 2 Stroke

Impeller is probably the simplest maintenance job there is on an outboard aside from changing lower unit oil IMHO. If all goes well, you could have it done in an hour or less. You might need a friend to help you get it back on. The larger the motor the heavier the lower unit. I've done 60hp and 70hp motors by myself but I needed help on the Johnson 140hp. The key is to make sure you get all the bolts out before trying to pull it off! I learned that on the 70.

This is where the manual comes in handy becuase the naked eye may or may not see a hidden bolt here or there. Also to make sure you twist the new impeller in in the housing in the right direction, otherwise it won't pump h2o and you might damage the brand new impeller on the first try.

About the oil leak, Skool and Maco gave good advice there ;)
