Im not sure of the year of the motor. id say a very close to a 1995 model. I have no experience with outboards. Should i try to install the water pump myself, or send it to the shop?? Ive been reading on the board and learning some. Are there any links to step by step instructions for installing the parts?

What gear should the motor be in while doing the install. Is there a certain way to install the impeller?

If anyone would want to help me out and give some tips maybe even explain the whole process, that would be great. Thanks.
