    Just picked up the impellers today at a local shop. But the Merc 60 is giving me a rough time. How do I insert all the fins into the pump and still align the key? I’m envisioning something like the tool you use to compress all the rings on a piston before inserting it into the cylnder.

    Use a zip tie to wrap around it and compress them down. once you get it started into the pump housing simply cut the zip tie off and push it in the rest of the way. Can be a bit of a pain but its worked for me on multiple occasions.
