that was great. Just don't put the gaskets on wrong like he did. The merc water pump kits come with a lot of different gaskets because that style pump also fits the sterndrive as well. So pay attention to which ones you need. And make sure you always rotate the shaft clockwise or the impeller might become inverted. You also need to scrape the silicone off behind the water pump. Just before you reinstall the lower unit apply a new bead of silicone. This helps keep the water pump under water so it is less likely to lose prime. If you are in doubt I suggest that you get a good service manual. Just don't rely on some random guy on youtube.
