How to Identify Your 350HP Model
- Locate the identification/serial plate on the transom bracket (often port side) or the swivel bracket. Record the model code and serial number.
- Honda model codes typically start with BF and horsepower (e.g., BF350A). Suffix letters indicate shaft length (L/XL/XXL), rotation (standard or counter), and control type.
- Confirm stroke type: these engines are 4-stroke EFI models. If your cowling/label differs from 350HP or 4-stroke, recheck the plate.
- When ordering parts, have the full model code and serial ready to verify year/serial breaks for exact-fit components.

FAQs
Are parts interchangeable between different 350HP years or variants?
Many service items are shared, but cooling, fuel, and ignition components can change with serial breaks or rotation/shaft variants. Always confirm with the full model code and serial number.
When should I replace the water pump impeller?
Inspect annually and replace about every 2 seasons or 200 hours. In sandy or silty water, or after any overheat/low‑flow event, replace sooner.
How often should gear oil be changed?
At least every 100 hours or annually. If the oil appears milky or contaminated, service immediately and inspect seals.
What information is needed to confirm part compatibility?
Provide the complete model code (e.g., BF350A variant), serial number, shaft length, rotation (standard/counter), and any known year range. Photos of the nameplate help ensure an exact match.
