I have a 1964 Merc 50hp serial#1717021. Ok, today I went to change the impeller and noticed 3 of the fins were sheared off. I went to remove the impeller and it wouldn't budge. I looked closer at it and noticed it had spun on the shaft and was no longer in alignment with the retaining key. Does anyone know how this could happen? I looked at the key itself, once I got the impeller off, and it does look a bit rounded but looks like a perfect fit to both the shaft and the impeller. Is this normal? Lastly, does anyone know where I can get a replacement retaining key? I think I would like to replace the key also, being that I'm already in there. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.
