Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if this filter fits my Yamaha engine?
This filter fits a wide range of Yamaha outboards, including many F115-F300 models. The best way to confirm compatibility is to verify that your existing filter uses OEM part number 6P2-24563-00-00 or 6P2-WS245-00-00.

Common symptoms of a failing fuel filter include engine hesitation, loss of power, stalling, difficulty starting, or rough idling. If you notice these issues, inspecting and replacing your fuel filter is a good first step.

For most Yamaha outboards, the recommended replacement interval for the primary fuel filter is every 100 hours of operation or annually, whichever comes first. Refer to your owner's manual for the specific maintenance schedule for your engine.
