Product Details
This high-quality inline fuel filter is designed to help protect the fuel system of compatible Johnson, Evinrude, and OMC outboard motors that use a 3/8 in inside-diameter fuel hose. It installs externally in the fuel line and is intended as a replacement for the listed original-equipment and aftermarket reference numbers.
This filter is listed for selected Johnson/Evinrude E-TEC applications from 40 HP through 200 HP. Because application coverage can vary by model, year, serial range, and fuel-system configuration, compare the reference number and hose connection with your engine documentation before ordering.
Replacement references include OMC part numbers 5005266, 5007326, and 5007335, plus Sierra aftermarket reference 18-7722.

Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I confirm whether this fuel filter fits my engine?
Compare your original filter’s part number, hose size, flow direction, engine model, model year, and serial range with the information on this page and in the engine service manual. The listed E-TEC applications are not a substitute for checking the exact engine configuration.
What is the correct installation direction?
Install the filter so its flow-direction arrow points toward the engine. If the arrow is missing or unclear, do not install the filter until the correct flow direction has been confirmed.
What are common signs that a fuel filter needs replacement?
Possible symptoms include hesitation, sputtering, loss of power, hard starting, or stalling. Restricted fuel flow or visible contamination can also indicate that the filter should be replaced.
How often should the filter be replaced?
Replacement intervals depend on the engine manufacturer’s maintenance schedule, fuel quality, storage conditions, and operating environment. Follow the service manual and replace the filter sooner if contamination or restricted flow is suspected.
Can this filter be used with ethanol-blended gasoline?
Use only fuel approved for your engine and a filter confirmed for that fuel. Consult the engine and filter manufacturer’s specifications before using ethanol-blended fuel.
Is this an OEM part?
This listing is for an aftermarket replacement filter. The listed OEM numbers are reference numbers used to help identify the intended replacement application; this product is not represented as a genuine OEM component.
What should I do if the replacement does not match my original filter?
Do not force the installation or modify the fuel line. Confirm the part number, hose diameter, flow direction, and engine application before use.

- Verify the filter, hose size, flow direction, and application against your original part and service documentation before installation.
- Do not operate the engine if any fuel connection leaks.
- Professional installation is recommended when the correct procedure or application is uncertain.
