What do I need to replace my impeller?

[benny429]

I have an 83 Evinrude 60hp ELCTB. I saw a old post a while back suggesting what is needed and now I can't find it.

I want to buy a service manual, but i want to get it, the impeller and any gaskets, etc. all at the same time.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Buy a complete BRP kit and it will be complete and have instructions to boot.

Believe or not, I have changed an impeller before, but what does BRP mean?

Is this what I need?

Bombardier Recreational Products ... the successor to OMC (Outboard Marine Corp)

Thanks, my Google search was leading me to that.

It doesn't look like iboats has BRP parts. Are the Sierra (I linked above) or Mallory (link below) kits acceptable replacements?

You'll likely get mixed reviews ... personally, I stick with OEM parts!

http://www.ishopmarine.com/ is one of many. Short's marine is another. Generally, if you have a dealer a reasonable distance away, you realyy won't save much BC of shipping. BTW, for water pump parts, I only use BRP, BC I've personally seen impeller failures with some unnamed third party kits. You also won't get a bunch of parts used for different motors in the BRP kits. Other stuff, third parties are OK.

The whole pump kit is 0390770.
