Sure te impeller is ok? Doesn't seem logical but it seems the stainless impeller wears more than the aluminum wear ring. I just replaced both on my 240 Mirage as it was cavitating under load, haven't been able to try it out though, everything is flooded where I go. check the specs here; Boatinfo - Mercury Service Manual for 240 EFI JetDrive

hey thanks for the information. I ordered a impeller and i'll install it this week end. I know there's not many moving parts in this so I hope this fixes things. At least now it'll have all new parts. Taking the grate off I can further inspect for stuff in the impeller. thx again
