Governor Cross Shaft Oil Seal
If the governor cross shaft seal is damaged and/or
leaks, replace it using the following procedure.
Remove the oil seal from the crankcase and replace it
with a new one. Install the new seal to depth shown in
Figure 10-15.

Water Pump
The water/coolant pump consists of a sealed impeller
assembly, which includes the outer cover and a
cogged drive pulley. When the pump is mounted to the
crankcase, the impeller fits into a cast recess, and the
cover seals against an O-Ring outside the perimeter of
the recess. See Figure 10-17.

The impeller assembly is not serviceable, but it should
be inspected for wear or damage.
1. Inspect the impeller to make sure the blades are
in good condition and free of any cracks, nicks, or
damage.
2. The impeller shaft should rotate smoothly, without
binding or wobbling, and there should be no sign
that coolant has leaked past the shaft to the outer
surface of the cover.
3. Check that the drive pulley is not cracked or
damaged in any way.
If your inspection causes you to doubt its reliability, the
water pump assembly should be replaced. Always use
a new O-Ring whenever the water pump is removed.
Do not reuse the old O-Ring or try to use RTV in its
place.
