What’s in the Box

  • 1 × Lower exhaust hose/bellow

Clamp note: The available product record identifies this listing as a single replacement hose rather than a kit. Existing clamps should be inspected and replaced separately if damaged, corroded, or unable to maintain a secure seal.

Installation Notes

  1. Allow the engine and exhaust system to cool completely and disconnect the battery before beginning work.
  2. Confirm that the replacement hose matches the original hose, connection points, and applicable part-number reference.
  3. Locate the hose connecting the upper exhaust pipe and exhaust manifold.
  4. Loosen and remove the clamps, then carefully work the old hose off both fittings.
  5. Clean and inspect the fitting surfaces. Replace damaged clamps or fittings before assembly.
  6. Slide the new hose fully onto both fittings and position the clamps over the correct sealing areas.
  7. Tighten the clamps securely without overtightening or damaging the hose.
  8. After installation, run the engine according to the manufacturer’s procedure and check carefully for exhaust or water leaks.

Troubleshooting and FAQ

How do I confirm fitment?

Compare the original hose, connection arrangement, engine and sterndrive configuration, and applicable part number. The listed displacement range alone does not confirm fitment.

What are common signs of a failing exhaust hose?

Inspect for cracks, brittleness, deformation, abrasion, soft spots, corrosion around the clamps, and visible exhaust or water leakage.

Does the listing include clamps?

This product is listed as a single replacement hose. Clamps are not included in the available product record, so inspect the original clamps and obtain replacements separately when necessary.

Can I install it myself?

Installation may be straightforward for an experienced marine mechanic, but professional installation is recommended when access is limited or the correct exhaust configuration cannot be confirmed.

Is this an OEM component?

No. This is an aftermarket replacement hose. The manufacturer and aftermarket reference numbers shown above are provided for identification and fitment comparison.

Safety and Important Information

  • Verify the original part number, hose shape, connection points, and engine configuration before purchase.
  • Do not operate the engine if the exhaust system leaks.
  • Follow the engine and sterndrive manufacturer’s service procedures and safety instructions.
  • Professional installation is recommended if the exhaust system, clamps, or mating surfaces show damage.
