Installation Notes

  1. Place a drain pan under the existing oil filter to catch any spills.
  2. Unscrew and remove the old filter. Be prepared for some oil to leak out.
  3. Wipe the filter mounting base on the engine block clean with a lint-free cloth.
  4. Lightly lubricate the gasket of the new filter with clean engine oil.
  5. Screw the new filter on by hand until the gasket makes contact with the mounting surface.
  6. Tighten the filter an additional three-quarters to one full turn by hand. Do not overtighten.
  7. Run the engine for a few minutes and carefully check for any leaks around the filter.
  8. Turn off the engine, wait a few minutes, then check the oil level and top off as needed.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I know if this oil filter fits my engine?

First, check the Part Number Matrix on this page to see if your old filter's part number is listed as a direct replacement. Second, consult the Engine & Model Compatibility tables to confirm your specific engine model and year are included.

What is the recommended replacement interval for this filter?

We recommend following the service interval specified in your engine’s owner's manual. For most marine engines, this is typically every 100 hours of operation or at least once per year, whichever comes first.

What are signs of a clogged or failing oil filter?

Common symptoms include a drop in oil pressure, engine sputtering or poor performance, and unusual metallic noises from the engine. If you notice any of these signs, inspect and replace your oil filter immediately.

Can I use this for a diesel engine?

No, this filter is specifically designed for gasoline-powered marine engines. Using it with a diesel engine can lead to improper filtration and potential engine damage.

OEM vs. Aftermarket?

This listing is an aftermarket replacement (not OEM). Built to OEM-level specifications with comparable materials. Manufactured in an ISO 9002 facility, batch-inspected for consistency.
