Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if my VST filter is clogged or failing?
Common symptoms of a clogged VST filter include the engine bogging down, hesitating during acceleration, stalling at idle, or failing to reach its maximum RPMs. These issues occur because the fuel pump is straining to pull fuel through the blocked filter.
Where is this filter located on my Yamaha outboard?
This filter is installed internally, inside the Vapor Separator Tank (VST). The VST is a component of the fuel delivery system, located on the engine block.
What is the recommended replacement interval for this filter?
For preventative maintenance and optimal engine performance, it is highly recommended to replace the VST filter every 300 hours of operation or at least once a year, whichever comes first.
Is this filter compatible with 2-stroke Yamaha engines?
No, this filter is specifically designed for the Yamaha 4-stroke outboard models listed in the compatibility table, including the F115, F150, F200, F225, and related LF-series V6 engines.
