Re: impeller

CORRECTION: Neither East Coast Marine Old Merc nor Ferguson Poole Inc offer
the 47-24447 impeller. It would still be a good idea to ask as they may
have them OR if enough requests are made they may find a manufacturer either
in USA or you know where overseas. The Old Scott site offers several brands
and models but does not list 47-24447 Again worth an email to let them know
that a demand exists. I last saw Brian in July and he was still making impellers at that time. It seems to me that it all revolves around the volume of demand
and financial risks of making a product for which there is an uncertain market.
I will check with Brian to get current status and revisit this issue

I have no financial interest or other involvement.
As far as I am currently aware Brian is sole source for the above impellers
He is the AOMCI Wizard Special Interest Group Leader...so he is pretty good

Re: impeller

47-4447 impeller KD3, KD4, KE3, & Pre-War models converted to use impeller. Also comparable Wizard models & WF4 & WG4.

In stock and ready to ship! oldmercs.com

Re: impeller

Sorry, Old Mercs doesn't have them either as I found out when I tried to add one to the cart and it was too late to delete my post

Re: impeller

A small clarification UPPER case AVAILABLE means Brian Wicox has the impeller.
lower case available re Mark 5 means it is still offered by on line vendors.

Re: impeller

A OMC impeller #382221 will fit but you need to cut the two notches in the hub so the brass piece will fit. The hub is plastic so its easy to cut.

Re: impeller

Thanks Birney for the sustitute part number. I was wondering if anything else was a close fit.

I ordered one to try from this website.

Re: impeller

Louis,
Do you happen to know what Brian Wilcox is charging for his K model impellers right now?

I contacted Bob Long, the flyingscott guy, and he has them in stock for $35 including shipping with your old core.
His Email is: FLYINGSCOTT@EARTHLINK.NET
