What do you mean by the impeller keeps popping off? Do you mean the shaft?

How often do you clean the pump? Sometime the motor block getting dirty and it makes the propeller pope out

yes, that little thing that spins when you plug it in. the shaft seem fine, its just the white propeller that clips on to the shaft. it doesn't seem to clip on there as tight as as it should and pops off.

PM me your address info and we will send one, it is rare but I have seen this a couple times, the prop just doesn't lock on tightly enough.
