Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if this seal kit fits my Mercury outboard?
This kit is for Mercury/Mariner 65-115HP 4-stroke models with serial numbers 2B095049 and up, specifically for the standard rotation 2.07:1 gearcase. Always cross-reference your engine model and OEM part number (8M0088080) with our compatibility chart.
What are the signs my gearcase seals are failing?
Common symptoms include milky or discolored gear lube (indicating water intrusion), visible oil leaks around the propeller shaft or driveshaft, or excessive metal shavings on the magnetic drain plug.
Is this kit for a standard or counter-rotation gearcase?
This kit is designed specifically for the standard (right-hand) rotation, 2.07:1 ratio gearcase. It is not compatible with counter-rotation models.
Do I need special tools for installation?
While basic tools are sufficient for disassembly, you may need a seal puller for removing old seals and a seal driver or appropriately sized socket for installing new ones without damage. A service manual for your specific outboard is highly recommended.
