What’s in the Box

  • 1 x Air Filter Element (119593-18880)

Installation Notes

  1. Ensure the engine is off and cool to the touch before beginning.
  2. Locate the air filter housing on your engine. It's typically a prominent plastic or metal box connected to the intake manifold.
  3. Open the air filter housing by releasing the clips, clamps, or bolts that secure the cover.
  4. Carefully remove the old air filter element, noting its orientation.
  5. Clean any dirt or debris from inside the housing with a clean, dry cloth. Do not use compressed air, which can force dirt into the engine intake.
  6. Insert the new air filter element, making sure it is seated correctly and forms a tight seal.
  7. Replace the housing cover and secure it with the clips, clamps, or bolts. Ensure it is fully sealed to prevent unfiltered air from bypassing the filter.
  8. Start the engine and check for any unusual noises or air leaks around the housing.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I know if my air filter needs to be replaced?

Signs of a clogged or failing air filter include reduced engine performance, increased black smoke from the exhaust, and higher fuel consumption. A visual inspection showing excessive dirt or damage also indicates it's time for a replacement.

What is the recommended replacement interval for this air filter?

For marine diesel engines, it's best to inspect the air filter every 100-200 hours of operation and replace it at least annually or more frequently if operating in particularly dusty or salt-laden environments. Always refer to your engine's service manual for specific recommendations.

Will this filter fit engine models not listed, like the 6CX or 4CX series?

While some sources suggest potential compatibility with other Yanmar series like the 6CX, this filter is specifically verified for the 6LP and 6LY series. To ensure proper fitment and engine safety, only use this filter if your exact model is listed as compatible.

Is there a difference in performance between this foam filter and a paper element?

Foam filters are often preferred in marine applications for their excellent filtration capabilities, durability, and resistance to moisture. They can effectively trap salt spray and airborne water particles that might degrade a standard paper filter more quickly.

Can I clean and reuse this foam air filter?

This filter element is designed as a direct replacement and is not intended to be cleaned and reused. Attempting to clean it can damage the foam media and compromise its ability to protect your engine. Always replace a dirty filter with a new one.

What happens if I install the filter incorrectly?

An improperly seated air filter can create a gap, allowing unfiltered air to bypass the filter. This can lead to dirt, salt, and other abrasive particles entering the engine, causing premature wear on cylinders, pistons, and other critical internal components.
