[QUOTE="crazymanme2, post: 189300, member: 1634"] I change my impellers every other year.The impellers with the short veins (in my opinion) should be changed more often than the impellers with the long veins.On the newer motors with the longer veins you could go 5 years if the water you boat in isn't real muddy or sandy. What I have seen is the shorter vein impellers seem to take a set quicker than the long vein impellers.Over the winter I turn my motors over so the impeller doesn't take a set. Running your motor out of the water for 5 sec doesn't hurt them.In the winter I always start my motor out of the water to make sure all the water is out of the pump so it doesn't freeze. [/QUOTE]
