No special tools required to change the impeller. You may need to open the low speed jets an 1/8 turn at a time to get better acceleration.

" Sparky thanks for the help. However I haven't been able to crack the lower unit case apart. I've removed the water inlet disk, two 5/8 nuts from the underside and two from the upper half as well as a 9/16 from the upper in the very back. What have I missed? Please advise me on my next move. Thanks, Greg C. "
