Thought I would share. Maybe this is flukey but nothing else was going on that my little brain could contribute this too.
Here are pictures of a 5 month old impeller (about 60 hours) completely shredded. It was some $15 dollar part of eBay... seemed like a good idea at the time. It got so hot it has welded some of the pump housing to the cup, so I'm tossing it all. Luckily I found this out when I was doing some routine stuff, this would have been a bummer if I was on the water.
-Impeller walls were lightly greased when installed
-Air temp about 55 deg F
-boat had been in the water 3 weeks ago, no issues
From now one I will only buy OEM Honda.
