    Hi all I have an 09 te510 and I was surfing around on here and saw about some talk of upgrading the water pump impeller on the 09. Because they upgraded it in '10 there must have been a reason behind it. If anyone can point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it, thanks.

    This is a pic of the stock propeller from my 08 TXC250 and 010 TC250 ...Not sure what is like on the other models ...

    No pic but replacing it with the high volume pump (~30$) did help my engine run cooler ...

    Any Husky dealer should be able to supply you with one ...The hole on the new propeller might be a little big so I usually put some of the loc-tite stuff on it to help hold it in place on that shaft ..

    There are also a few threads here that show how to put one on without loosing the timing of the engine also ....

    After the upgrade, my husband's bike (09 TXC 450)has never overheated again. Upgraded impeller (from special parts catalog) and Engine Ice is what we are using.

    During the summer I saw that my 09 te510 got real hot so the next day I flushed the coolant and got engine ice form a local dealer, I hope the impeller mod with solve the issue completely.
