This water pump impeller for Mercury/Mariner outboard motors is a CEF aftermarket spare part for the engine's cooling water pump. The impeller circulates cooling water through the cooling system and replaces Mercury/Mariner reference 47-42038.
The impeller has six long neoprene blades and a plastic hub. The design is a high-volume/long-vane type and measures 13 mm in internal shaft diameter, 58.8 mm in external diameter, and 11.7 mm in width. The hub is key-driven, allowing the engine's pump shaft to transfer rotation to the impeller.
Primary compatibility includes Mercury and Mariner outboard motors with standard gear housings: 2-stroke engines of 6, 8, 10, and 15 HP, as well as 4-stroke engines of 9.9 and 15 HP. Compatibility also depends on the model year, gear housing, and serial number. Gaskets and keys are not stated as included.
Compatible engine models
The OEM cross-reference includes, among others, Mercury/Mariner 6–15 HP 2-stroke with standard gear housing from the relevant USA and Belgian series. It also includes selected 8 and 9.9 HP FourStroke models as well as the 15 HP 323 cc FourStroke with standard gear housing. For 2-stroke, this applies to, among others, 6 HP USA 0A197112–0T800749, 8 HP USA 0A197112 and later, XR10/Sea Pro 10/10 Magnum/Marathon 10 USA 0D038000 and later, and 15 HP USA 0B292414 and later. The corresponding Belgian series start at 9461526, 9596000, and 9542620, respectively.
For 4-stroke, the cross-reference includes, among others, 8 HP 232 cc USA 0G760300–0T178499, 9.9 HP 232 cc USA 0H000058–0H016909, 9.9 HP 323 cc USA 0G760300–0T979999 and 15 HP 323 cc USA 0G590000–1B727495. BigFoot gear cases are not covered by this compatibility. Later engine series may use a different impeller, even if the engine power is the same.
