Help BRAVO 496 PUMP Mercruiser.
THE NEW ALL BRASS WATER PUMP WITH NO WEAR PLATES AND TWO FLATS DOUBLE SIDED HUB USING 1/2” SHAFT
Major complaints:
In most areas of the United States the water picked up by the new 496 serpentine gen 7pump is unfiltered and therefore many timess infused with sand particles. The sand around the blades gets ejected when it passes the output ports, however, the sand works it's way into the ends of the impeller against the case, becomes imbeded an acts like high speed sand paper which does extreme damage to the body of the pump.
“ I put a new impeller but my engine gets hot"

“ With all new parts my pump doesn’t suck”
“ Pump preasure is low and I don’t know why”
“ Seriously damaged ends in my pump”
“ My pump has fallen and can not get up”
