It may look easy in the book but there are a few things that can go out. Such as the key/roll pin that drives the impeller can slip out on assembly. Water tube out of hole or damaged OR pieces of old impeller in it depending on why you needed to replace it. There are more but if you are not a trained tech it may be time to find one.

I have a 1973 evinrude 25 hp motor that does not circulate water through. I took out the water pump and the rubber propeller is in good shape.Any other ideas?

look at the prop part closely

see if the water flushes fully through the block without the pump fitted
seals
blocked gauze/water pick up fouled

i know these corrode even with the best of flushing
make sure the pump drive shaft is spinning with the base of the motor sometimes the shaft spline will splinter or break

Does motor on 1975 25 horse evinrude have to be in gear for water pump to work

The water pump HAS to be working whenever the motor is started. You'll burn you water pump impeller out very quickly if it isn't.

How do i replace the water pump in a 2005 150 hp evinrude outboard motor

Take the cowling off. Also drop the foot. There wil be a stainless linkage rod that runs the length of the motor that you will have undo to drop the foot. The water impeller will be inside a stainless casing that you will have to disassemble.

Where does the water exit a 1971 25 hp evinrude? how do I know it's pumping water?

I do believe the water jets are down on the lower unit by the prop. There should be a white swirl of white bubbles shooting out.
