    2014 225 Pro XS lower unit ?'s & engine oil leak

    2014 225 Pro XS serial number 2B015594.

    Need to know the part number for impeller kit. Should I replace housing too? ~80 hours on motor.

    Also, is this a verado style lower unit?

    I would like to get a spare hub kit for it, need to know which Flo-Torq hub kit fits, is the flo-torq II standard for this motor or go with the SSR?

    Also any advice on a small leak in the oil pump. I tightened the bottom hex bolt almost 1/2 a turn, it was looser than the other 2 hex bolts, but I haven't had a chance to see if its leaking anymore. Can I just replace the o-ring behind the pump or will the entire pump need to be replaced? Can this be done at home or does pump need to be primed via computer?

    Thanks in advance this forum is great.

    So yes it is 1" verado style lower unit. I replaced impeller no problems also did fuel filter, checked thermostats, lower unit grease, spark plugs etc. She's running great.

    But I still want a spare Flo-torq hub kit and I need to know which one fits this lower unit. I'm buying a Fury prop to try it out and down grading my tempest to spare (at least that's the plan) so I wanted a spare hub kit to stay inside the spare prop. 2, 3, 4? Which one fits?

    Believe I have a NIB FT-II hub kit on my dresser (don't know why I put it there) and I'd be happy to make you a deal.

    Just checked, it's exact same as one in link provided by 06 except I must have used the lock washer, everything else is there and unused. PM me if interested.
