I fired up my motor for the first time since I bought the boat and after letting it run for 15 minutes with no water coming out I figured the impeller must be shot. (JUST KIDDING!!! I only ran it for about two minutes total before shutting it down.) Anyway, I'm pretty sure the correct part number is # 46-43024A7. This contains the housing and everything. Should I spend the extra bucks for the whole kit or should I just get the impeller kit? ( BTW, what's the correct part number for the impeller kit for a 1995 Merc 115 hp 4cyl. outboard?) My Clymer manual says you need to press in a new seal into the housing and put Loctite on the outside of certain seals and it seems MUCH more complicated than doing the same job on my 1988 Force 50 hp outboard. I'm pretty confident I can do it, but I don't want to change stuff that is still good. If I buy the whole kit, is the seal already pressed in? I don't have access to a press at home.
