The kit includes the water pump housing along with the internal components needed to complete the rebuild, including a Sierra 18-7481 O-Ring (O.E. 324981) and a Sierra 18-2703 Grommet (O.E. 314008), so the job can be finished without hunting down separate small parts. Reliable cooling pump function is critical to outboard engine health, since a worn or failing water pump can lead to inadequate raw water flow and overheating. This kit is designed as a direct equivalent to the original equipment part it replaces, matching fit and function so it can be installed using the same procedure as the OEM housing it is replacing. The kit weighs 1.21 pounds as packaged. Buyers replacing a worn or leaking water pump housing on their outboard can use this kit as a single-source solution covering the housing and the associated O-ring and grommet needed for a proper seal.\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 18-3389\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Water Pump Kit with Housing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.21 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKit Includes:\u003c\/strong\u003e O-Ring (Sierra 18-7481, O.E. 324981), Grommet (Sierra 18-2703, O.E. 314008)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOEM Cross Reference:\u003c\/strong\u003e 436957, 0438591, 0432955\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eReplaces (OEM)\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e436957\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0438591\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0432955\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does the Sierra 18-3389 Water Pump Kit include?\u003c\/strong\u003e The kit includes the water pump housing along with a Sierra 18-7481 O-Ring (O.E. 324981) and a Sierra 18-2703 Grommet (O.E. 314008), giving you the housing and the small parts needed to complete the rebuild in one kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich OEM part numbers does the 18-3389 replace?\u003c\/strong\u003e This kit replaces OEM part numbers 436957, 0438591, and 0432955.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the Sierra 18-3389 Water Pump Kit weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e It weighs 1.21 pounds as packaged.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this kit come with a housing or just internal parts?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the Sierra 18-3389 is a full kit that includes the water pump housing itself, not just the internal seal components.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Sierra 18-3389 a genuine OEM part or an aftermarket equivalent?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is a Sierra-manufactured aftermarket kit designed to be a direct equivalent to the original equipment part it replaces, matching the original part numbers 436957, 0438591, and 0432955.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the O-Ring part number included in this kit?\u003c\/strong\u003e The included O-ring is Sierra part 18-7481, corresponding to O.E.
