Impeller
I replace my impeller every three years, but as I read through the correspondence, the 'snap O pin' is something that I have never seen on the shaft and have never installed. As a matter of fact, I can see where the snap pin goes, but there was never one there in the first place.
I have had the boat for 14 years and only once have I had an impeller fail, a broken impeller blade, when I first purchased the boat.
My first question: am I doing any damage to the pump or impeller by not installing the pin? (seems to work just fine)
My second question: What is the gauge of the impeller gasket paper?
I have a spare, but by the time I receive one from MM parts department, (it takes at least a week to clear customs) I'm confident that I can cut one using my spare as a template.
