When you pull out the impeller, collect all of the pieces. Make sure that you have all the parts. If you are missing any, you need to find them. In particular, look into inlet and the outlet of the pump. Use a stiff piece of wire with a hook on the end to reach into the inlet and outlet to retrieve any missing parts.
I have seen a broken impeller piece get lodged into the intake of the pump and then damage a new impeller when it come loose.
In my experience, if you are missing only a few very small pieces, they are probably down-stream from the pump and are in the heat exchanger. If it is easy to open the HX, do so and clean out the impeller pieces. I personally have a HX that is very difficult to reach on my generator and I have left a few small pieces stay in there with no ill effects. YMMV.
