Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if this bushing will fit my specific engine model?
This bushing is designed for a wide range of Mercury and Mariner outboards (6-15 HP) from 1996 onward. To guarantee fitment, please compare your engine's model, year, and serial number against the detailed compatibility table provided on this page.
What are the signs that my old bushing needs replacement?
Common symptoms of a worn or failed bushing include excessive vibration, rattling or clunking noises from the outboard assembly, or noticeable looseness and play in the components the bushing supports. A visual inspection may also reveal cracks, deformation, or corrosion.
Is a special tool required for installation?
Yes, because this is a 'press-fit' component, installation requires a mechanical or hydraulic press, or a specialized bushing driver tool. Using the correct tool ensures the bushing is installed straight and without damage to the bushing or its housing.
