I replaced the impeller based on hours of use or timebsince last replacement, even if it may look ok, but sometimes fins deteriorate resulting in sometimes what you are experiencing

Yes

Yes...that makes it easier to pull out

It was personal choice for tabs, the hydrofoil would create extra drag and lower the speed a little. The tabs are working as they should

Thank you !

Yes, it doesn't have enough space. Its a struggle.

Sorry just seeing this, if you go to my channel go to play lists, look for Auto DIY, look for final part. Thanks for inquiry

Get the OEM, the kit from Amazon is cheap, gasket is bit thick, plus diaphragm doesn't site well. I redid many times, till I ordered the OEM

@FKCamVlogs Nice. I have two 2001 Mercury Optimax 150s. They're overheating and I am looking for solutions. I've already changed out the impellers and thermostats.

Did you used OEM thermostats? Did the wings of impellers are in same directions as the old ones? If yes to both then next thing on list is poppet valve, make sure to buy OEM as well

@FKCamVlogs I found what the problem was. I had sent one of my ECUs to get repaired and didn't flush out the outboards. I left them for a week and a half. The salt crystallized and wasn't allowing the thermostats to open up completely which caused my port side outboard to overheat. I took out the thermostat housings and had to scrape off all the crystallized salt on both outboards. I also used a file and sandpaper to clean them all up. I took out my boat earlier today in the San Diego Bay and both outboards are good. And oh, I used the Quicksilver thermostats so yes, they are the OEM ones. Thanks for following up on my question. It is greatly appreciated. Now I will be going offshore fishing to hunt for yellowfin tunas, bluefin tunas, dorados and yellowtails down in Mexican waters.

Glad to hear! Enjoy fishing.

Its a long job ...like 8 hours for me when I did it

I did it a while ago but it is easier if you open it all. Those allen screws are a nuisance, lube them with anti rust and install

Good luck and post how it went!

I need to see to it, what issue it causes?

Haha dont wear sandals

I am sorry for your lack of knowledge. The model you see in thumbnail is NOT a newer version, and regardless of the model, if you dont know how to, "freeze" then you dont. Dont blame your shortcomings on newer version or year. Also probably my garage has more cars what you can afford even if you work rest of your life. Take your car to dealer, you are the reason they are in business, if you cant afford service, dont buy cars that dont fit your budget. Note: You don't need to freeze to swap wipers.

@@FKCamVlogs As a 21 year old owning a CLA 45 AMG, worth more than your entire life im doing good. Get yo 40 year old ass outta here if you cant see yo broke ass 5inch screen in the middle of your console. The car is clearly an older model of the cla. Prob 2013 version, where my rims cost more than the entire car

What is upsetting you? Your car will never stay new,. I dont need to disclose to any John Doe what I have, if your car is CLA AMG then go look for that class youtube videos and learn how to talk. Owning a Mercedes doesn't mean anything, just know its a car, thats all. What matters is how you ask for help or guidance.

@@FKCamVlogs Nothing is upsetting me man, just saying the thumbnail is a bit misleading since a part of it isnt the same on newer models. You came talking down to me about me not having any knowledge about cars, so it got outta hand from both sides. I was just saying, the thumbnail is showing the newer model, and you have the older one. They dont work the same way cause mercedes always finds a -more pain in the ass way to do simple tasks

Yes the white plate replaced the blue plate.

Thank you !

Check with dealer for exact part number for your vehicle.

This is my personal review and I have every right to express regardless of what any John Doe says

Again this is my personal review and I have every right to express, and it needs no validation from any so called expert or tire manufacturer. I went through issues and problems by having run flat tires. Do you know the percentage of people using regular tires verses run flats, and why, please review those numbers before leaving your expert comment

Thermostats have to get to a certain temp to open up. I think its 140 for Mercury. Check them first, they are easy to swap than puppet.

Are you using OEM parts kit or after market?

I am sorry I am not aware of this issue

Glad you liked it!
