Engine & Model Compatibility
The following examples are supported by engine-catalog occurrences for the Yamaha filter-element references above. Model suffixes, production year, shaft configuration, and serial-number conditions can affect fitment. Match all of those conditions and verify the housing marking before installation.

| Yamaha | F150JA, F150LA, F150TJR, F150TLR, F150TXR, F150XA | 150 | 4-Stroke | 2012 | 6P3-24563-01-00 / 6P3-WS24A-01-00 |

Important: The 18-79809 Sierra application entry is narrower than the full set of catalog occurrences for the Yamaha element references. It specifically lists F150–F250 and Z/VZ 150–300 hp applications after April 2006 for housings marked “6P3.” Do not assume that every model sharing a filter-element number uses the same complete fuel-filter assembly.

- Remove the old element and inspect the housing, bowl, O-ring, and gasket for contamination, wear, or damage.
- Clean the housing with a lint-free cloth. Do not use solvents or compressed air unless permitted by the engine manufacturer.
- Install the replacement element in the correct orientation and make sure it is fully seated.
- Reinstall the bowl or cover and tighten it to the manufacturer's specified torque. Do not overtighten.
- Reconnect the battery and prime the fuel system according to the engine manual.
- Start the engine only after checking that the housing is closed, then inspect carefully for fuel leaks.
Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I confirm fitment?
Compare the old element's part number, confirm that your engine model and year match a supported application, and check the filter-housing marking. For the Sierra 18-79809 application, the housing must be marked “6P3.” When model, year, shaft, or serial details are uncertain, use the engine service manual or an authorized dealer's parts catalog.
Is this the complete fuel filter assembly?
No. This listing is for one replacement filter element. The filter housing, bowl, O-ring, gasket, and other fuel-system parts are not included.
What is the difference between 6P3-24563-01-00 and 6P3-WS24A-01-00?
Both references are documented in the supplied catalog material as filter-element references associated with this application family. Match the number on your removed part and verify the complete engine and housing conditions before ordering.
What symptoms can indicate a restricted fuel filter?
Possible symptoms include hard starting, hesitation, loss of power, rough running, stalling, or fuel starvation at higher engine speed. These symptoms can also have other causes, so inspect the complete fuel system and follow the engine service manual.
When should the filter element be replaced?
Replacement timing depends on the engine model, operating conditions, fuel quality, and the manufacturer's maintenance schedule. Replace it when specified by the service manual or when inspection indicates contamination or restriction.
Can I use this with ethanol-blended gasoline?
Use only fuel that meets the engine manufacturer's specifications. The filter element is intended for gasoline applications, but the engine manual controls the approved fuel formulation and ethanol limit.
Is this an OEM Yamaha part?
No. This is an aftermarket replacement element made to interchange with the listed Yamaha references. Yamaha and the listed Yamaha part numbers are used only to identify application and interchange information.
Safety & Important Information
- Fuel is flammable. Relieve fuel-system pressure as specified by the engine manual and prevent spills from contacting hot engine parts.
- Confirm the engine model, year, shaft or configuration, serial range when applicable, filter-housing marking, and old-part number before purchase.
- Do not install the element if its dimensions, seals, housing fit, or orientation differ from the original part.
- Dispose of the used filter and spilled fuel according to local environmental regulations.
- Professional installation is recommended when you are not experienced with marine fuel systems.
