This kit replaces the entire water pump assembly rather than a single component, giving boat owners everything needed to restore full cooling system pumping capacity in one purchase. The kit is built from metal construction to withstand the marine environment and the heat and pressure cycles of an operating stern drive cooling circuit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause the water pump is one of the most common wear items on a stern drive, replacing the complete assembly at once helps ensure the housing, base, and impeller are matched and sealing correctly together, rather than mixing a new impeller with a worn housing or base. This kit is application-specific to the number 1 unit configuration with the plastic flush screw in the gear housing, so confirming the gear housing type and serial number before ordering is important, since Mercruiser used different pump configurations across different serial number ranges and drive types.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sierra\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18-3321\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Complete Water Pump Kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mercruiser stern drive, #1 Units with plastic flush screw in gear housing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSerial Number Range:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2495186 - 2763441\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.98 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit Count:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 030999315830\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGTIN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 00030999315830\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelated Sierra Component Numbers:\u003c\/strong\u003e Upper Pump Housing 18-3116, Upper Pump Kit 18-3517, Water Pump Base 18-3421, Impeller Repair Kit (no housing) 18-3217, Impeller 18-3017\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e Limited warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eMercruiser stern drive, #1 Units with plastic flush screw in gear housing, serial numbers 2495186 through 2763441\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is included in the Sierra 18-3321 water pump kit?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Sierra 18-3321 is a complete water pump kit, meaning it includes the full pump assembly rather than a single part, for Mercruiser #1 units with a plastic flush screw in the gear housing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich Mercruiser units does the 18-3321 fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e It fits Mercruiser #1 units with a plastic flush screw in the gear housing, covering serial number range 2495186 through 2763441.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I know if my Mercruiser unit takes the 18-3321 instead of a different pump kit?\u003c\/strong\u003e Check the gear housing for a plastic flush screw and confirm your unit's serial number falls within 2495186 to 2763441;
