this will be the 3rd season I've had this motor and I haven't changed the impeller yet. The guy I bought it from said it had been done recently before he sold it (how long 'recently' is I don't know). I realize that it is probably overdue for this service, but if you have a great stream coming out of the peehole even on muffs at idle, isn't the impeller still doing its job, or is the risk of it breaking up and lodging pieces of rubber in the cooling passages the main reason for regular replacement intervals?
