Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I know this is the correct filter for my engine?

This is the "short type" 60mm height element. The best way to confirm is to check your existing filter's part number or dimensions. Some Yanmar engine models can use either this short filter (120324-55760) or the taller 90mm filter (41650-502320). When in doubt, consult your engine's service manual or a qualified marine mechanic.

What is the difference between this element and the 41650-502320?

The primary difference is the height. This part, 120324-55760, is 60mm tall. The 41650-502320 is a larger, 90mm tall element. They are generally not interchangeable unless your specific filter housing is designed to accommodate both sizes. Always use the size specified for your setup.

How often should I replace my fuel filter?

Replacement frequency depends on fuel quality, operating hours, and the recommendations in your Yanmar engine manual. A common service interval is to inspect or replace the fuel filter element annually or every 200-250 hours of operation, whichever comes first.

What are the signs of a clogged fuel filter?

Symptoms of a failing or clogged fuel filter include noticeable loss of engine power, engine sputtering or stalling (especially under load), difficulty starting the engine, and unusually high fuel consumption.
