I just bought a new boat to me and has a 00 mercury efi. I test drove it last week and everything worked as it should. I had it on the water today for the first time since purchase and noticed the Pee stream quit. I turned the motor off and just used the TM the rest of the day. In y’all’s experience is this the fix? If so what would this run at a boat shop. I was going to do it tomorrow but I’m not opposed to letting the pros handle it. What’s approx cost or PM me pricing.

Check the pee hole for mud them little bugs like to stop them up. I keep a piece of tape over mine. They will stop it up overnight...

I stuck wire a little up it to try and dislodge anything. Put boots back on nothing.

The impeller is not that hard of a replacement if you're handy. Search it on YouTube, there are a lot of videos showing how to do it.

So not the easiest of jobs for the first time by your self but I got it changed. Bad news is nothing is coming out with muffs on. I blew air through it as well. Tomorrow I’m going to detach the line running to the pee hole and check it out. Fingers crossed. Also my over heat never came on at the lake if this makes a difference

Might as well check/replace thermostats while your messing with the cooling system.

I’m not sure I’ve put it on and off about 20 times and still nothing. I’m just taking it to a shop.

Did you rotate the fins on the impeller the correct way ?

Just had mine done on ProXS 250. Kit was $93 + install. Had some other stuff done too. Probably $150 for new water pump kit installed. Impeller and housing.

Yes the fins were the right way. The old fins left a shadow so I just put it in the same.

On the Mercury I think the thermostats have to get warm and open before the water starts flowing. How long did you let it run before shutting it down?

My old 150 has a key that fits on a flat part of the shaft and then the impeller is slid over it, not sure if yours is the same but it will not pump without that key....
