HOW TO CHANGE THE WATER PUMP (Impeller) on a YAMAHA 150 OUTBOARD 

My single Yamaha 150 on my Sea Hunt Triton and I appreciate you taking the time to do this. I'll be doing it soon. Thank you

So far best video I've found for newbies attempting to do this and save some money. Thank you sir

Great Video. Love the low key and smooth approach.

Thanks for a great video, which gave me the confidence to change my water pump out on my 2012 yamaha f-150!

Great video thanks for sharing. Changed the impeller on my F150 for the first time with confidence.

Outstanding video, you did a great job explaining each step and what need to be done and what to look out for, I feel I could do this new time on my Worldcat GB ed. Thanks

Great video, very useful and I appreciate the very understandable instructions.

Man you have been a tremendous help. Very informative on each step.

Always lube the drive shaft with Yamaha grease to help prevent the bushing squeal on deceleration

great video, thanks. This video gave me confidence to work on my own Yamaha 150 4 stroke I really appreciate the time you took to make this video..

Thanks for doing such a clear video. Doing this on mine tomorrow.

I retired Friday, family is coming up to spend some time on the water and a cabin on the lake retreat next week. I put the boat in the water this morning and "impeller problem," no water discharge. I watched your video, it was/is EXCELLENT. I believe I will make this change myself. Thank you for a great job!!

Best video on the net for this job! Thank you friend!

Great job with explaining stuff. Also editor did a great job too ! Thank you 🙏. Ya did good

Thank you for this video! Helped me on my first replacement!

Good video . If the metal ring wont budge it is easily defeated by gently heating the cap and softening the plastic ring . Of course the metal and plastic rings will have to be replaced . I like to grease the impeller and housing before reinstallation . Be careful when reassembling the pump housing the wavy washer goes in the middle .

Great video. In a pickle and not sure if I can get dealer to put impellers in for me in very short notice. This video was great and gives me confidence to try. Well done! Thanks!

Very nice presentation and helpful !

Was a really helpful video ! Thank you

Well done you made it look easy Thank you very good video

I thank you so much for the amazing video!!! It saved me so much time and money. You should do videos for a living:)

Excellent video! Very informational.

Excellent Instruction thanks Darryl from Australia cheers.

Totally appreciate your video! Awesome!

Very good instructions!

Great video. Thanks!

Gracias for the refresher brother 🫡

Thank you, I did mine this morning, all good! You are a big help.

Excellent video!

Excellent video boys, thanks

Great Job!

Great video thank you

Nice job my man!

Awesome video brother. Watched it a couple of times in preparation of changing one out on my boat for the first time. I really appreciate you taking the time to demonstrate it so well.

great video, awesome job, off to the shop for parts, thank you

Great video. Thanks

👍👍👍 Good job man... Greeting's from Greece...

Thanks great learning tool

Thanx that was good I just bought a boat with a 150 Yamaha 2 stroke a 2011 it looks very similar The last person who did it put the three washers ect on top of the plastic housing

great vid! you earned my sub!

Thanks for the video, any suggestions on what I should do if the anode bolt doesn’t want to come off and the top just keeps spinning? The anode is loose but doesn’t come off while the top bolt just keeps spinning and doesn’t tighten back up either

Nice video. I'd also grease up the top splines on the prop shaft.

Good video 😀

Good job. Any torque specs on the plastic housing bolts?

Hey I really appreciate your video! So easy to understand and well explained.. Quick question for this video. What year was this 150? And was it a F150XB. (Sorry I might have missed it!) Thanks again!

I’m looking at this because my shifter control is stuck in neutral and won’t turn to engage forward or reverse; so I was looking to see if we can get to it through the lower unit

What size props are you using

Do you not grease the drive shaft splines? Great video.

good video ty

Is all that corrosion on the drive shaft normal? Mine looked similar and mechanic said it shouldn't be that corroded...

What is the torque on the bolts and how many hours on that impeller

This is a great video, thank you for this!Quick question.. I was under the impression that you had to drain the lower unit oil but I guess not?

Thanks! Question, I have a 2010 F150 that gets overheat alarm only at idle speed after about 5 mins of idle. Pee stream is going OK, but maybe takes longer to get started. My boat is used in fresh water, clean lake, water is on "hard" side (some lime). So this looks like bigger job than changing the PRV (Poppet) valve and also the thermostat. What order would you (or readers) start changing these parts? I'd like to start with the most likely culprit, obviously.

Awesome video sir. Any ideas on how to finagle the shaft into place along with the shifter? I am having the most difficult time possible. I’ve got a 2015 150hp as well

FINALLY YOU ARE BACK!!!

Great video however I would suggest putting some grease on top of the shaft. Just regular marine grease will do.

If you do this yourself does that void your warranty?

Is there anyway to test the new impeller you just put on to make sure it’s working before you make a long drive to the water? I bought some muffs but they don’t seem to work, I also put the bottom part of the motor into a storage container and filled it with water it barely covers the black screens on the bottom of the motor but no water is coming out not sure if the water should be any higher or if I didn’t do a great job on my impeller install?

I have a f150 left handed , should I spin drive shaft counter clockwise as I slide plasic cover over new impeller? thanks great vid.

Great video Can you tell me what size of propellers you run I run 13 3/4 x 21 and feels like is over propped Thanks

Where do these 150s take in the water the lower of the two on the Shaft. yes great job explaining everything thank you

Gamefish gang gang!!! Did a 125ish mile round trip Saturday, noticed my starboard had a weak pee. I would say about 30sh percent less than the port throughout the entire rev range. It did get a little worse by the time i got home, never got warning lights though. Will be tackling the impeller wondering if it's deteriorating

Great video , where did you get those needle nose pliers from ?

Great job on the video. Can you tell me what kind of transducer you have? Maybe share a picture. Never seen a mount like that

Is "never sieze" the actual name of the product you use? Is it a marine grade lubricant? Or does that matter? Great video. I just don't want to use something inappropriate when I do mine.

Good stuff man. Like the little Pro Tips you give. Do you know if doing this will it void the warranty ? Thanks man.

I’ve got the lower unit 1 inch From going back all the way in it seems to be hanging up on something but I can’t figure out what?

Is there a special formula of Never Seize you use? I see there a few different kinds. Thanks.

You did not crease the main axle when assembled it back? Should it?

What work bench is that you used to hold lower unit?

So was the motor in gear or in neutral when you started?

great video thank you, i need some help, my port 150 shift shaft mustve of mis aligned and would not slide in so we moved to neutral more and will only stay in forward now, do you have any videos or some tips to get aligned correctly? thanks

Will a bad impeller cause low oil pressure warning to go off?

Did you have shifter in forward or neutral position?

What's the bolt part number if they become damaged for the outer bolts?

Grease the spline where the drive shaft goes into the engine. Makes next time easier.

What year is the motor? Thank you.

How many hours are on the boat when you did this ?

For some of you guys that have already done this. How long did it take?

Need to make sure you pull that shaft up hard while reinstalling the ring look this up

WHAT YEAR YAMAHA ENGINE IS THIS?

Sir are you conducting online course..?

Is this a 2 or, I suspect, 4 stroke? Same process?

You do not put anti seize on the spline

DO U LEAVE IT IN NUTRAL?

Where can I get that table

How often should u change?

No torque specs?

So u didn’t put a new collar on the shaft

Thanks very straight forward. I now have the confidence to do it myself. You saved me about 500$in labor at the dealership!!! I knew I was getting raped lol!!

Next time please use marine grease never seize is only supposed to be used on plugs

Latex gloves 🧤 GLOVES?! Brother

You did not grease the splines on the drive shaft

You’re cotter pin is going to come off and you’re going to lose a prop.

Your introduction is tooooo long

Old impeller has a metal sleeve. The new impeller is just rubber. Do I have the correct impeller? New impeller 6E5-44352-01
