Why do you need to replace every year?

Kelly,
I too am wondering why you are replacing them yearly. I've had them last 20 years and I don't even remove them for winter layup. You must be running them dry!! Are you running the engine even for short times without water?

I've made several comments regarding the practice of frequent impeller change being unneeded. I'm on my 29th year of owning my 1964 with the 312. I just opened up the pump to take a look at the impellers after at least 25 years. I really wouldn't have bothered since I had no cooling problems but the bottoms of the hoses at the pump where getting real bad. (soft/gooey from the RV antifreeze) No broken blades, some wear on the tips, some "set" on the blades but no set at the cam from winter storage and some blade warpage.











The bottom line is running them dry is the killer and the marina's are spreading BS all over.

I was curious because I had a Barco impeller which is what the Globe's were previously. It was made out of some sort of poly urethane material like upgraded suspension links are made of. Can't find the one I had,must have thrown it out. Pete put in a little OT and get some new ones,remember when your son reworked your underwater gear? Imagine what he could accomplish overheating it
