Lower unit and water pump torque 2000 Ficht 200 HP

Jbassking · ‎09-23-2017

Hi everyone!

I'm changing the water pump on my 2000 Ficht 200 HP and was wondering what the torque specs are. I'm pretty sure I need the torque for the lower unit and the water pump itself.

Thanks!

I'm curious, for the water pump kit, does the bowl, key and big o-ring need to be glued in or is this more for convenience while installing the parts so they don't fall out or move??

use 3M 847 sealer also known as Sealer 1000 or Type M sealer.

You would be better in the know if you obtained the factory service manual for your motor. See your dealer or www.outboardbooks.com
