I have the spin-on fuel/water filter too, which gets changed every year, but I think this in-line filter needs to be changed too.
I've see the Racor S3213 filter, and wondered if I could use in place of my Mercruiser Filter, but I wasn't sure if the threads/gaskets are the same.
I'm not...

This is the one with the booster pump, that uses the 864572 in-line filter.
I'd like to replace it with a filter that I can see when it is dirty, and also if there are bubbles in the fuel line.
I'd like to replace the in-line filter on my 5.7L MPI with something like the Moeller 033319.
Their website says this filter is rated at 85 PSI, but Not useable for Inboard Engines. Since I have an I/O and not an Inboard I purchased one, but the packaging says for Outboard Use Only.
Is this a...
The 94020 is actually a Mercruiser part # 84-861540A 1, which is easily obtained.
Rinda made the Mercruiser branded scanner, as well as their own version of the same scanner called the Techmate. The Quicksilver DDT can also do this as long as you have the 803999 cartridge, 861540A cable...
Yes, I'm aware of the Mercruiser (AKA Rinda Technologies) scanner. Also the Quicksilver DDT with the right module, and the 2 cables can do this, but the data is very limited, just the number of hours by RPM.
As I stated, this isn't really worth tracking down a scanner and the cables, but I'm a...
I see a few scanners can access the info out of a Thunderbolt V ignition module made by Denso. I'm looking to retrieve this data without having to buy a $300 scanner.
Does anyone know how to access this data?
There are 2 pins available on the side of the module, which along with the ground...
I picked up a used Mercury Mirage + prop, 48-18278A45. This uses the Flo-Torq II hub system. I installed it on a 1996 Alpha 1, Gen 2 drive. I used a new Flo-Torq II kit, which came with the Bronze Forward Thrust Washer (48-835467Q01). I can hear and feel the prop touching the case behind the...
Has anyone ever heard of a Mercury Typhoon prop?
This is not a Quicksilver Stainless Typhoon prop, but an Mercury Aluminum Black Diamond Typhoon prop. It has a weird part number too, TA-2010X. It's a 16 x 16 prop, which seems like it should be a Quicksilver QA-2010X prop, but it's not. This...
I re-powered my cabin cruiser, and need a little help with the prop.
Boat is a 22' 1996 cabin cruiser, 5.7LX Mercruiser, 1.47 ratio Stern Drive. Boat is speced at 3480 lbs, but have never weighed it. I suspect it's heavier than this. Precise engine specs were difficult to come by. The crate...
I had a new engine installed, which is a new GM factory built crate engine last fall. At 10 hours I went to change the oil, but only 4 quarts came out. The dipstick had shown as full before I removed it.
The original engine was a 1996 5.7L Mercruiser (pre Vortex). The new engine has a stamp...
I'm installing a Mercruiser closed cooling on a previous raw water cooled 5.7L V8, and need help with a couple hookups.
1. The hose from the top of the water pump goes where? It looks like the block, but I can't tell where.
2. There is a 90 degree elbow on the top of my thermostat housing...
Engine was 0F606xxx That's a 1995 5.7L, w/2BBL carb. Drive is an Alpha One Gen 2 with a 1.47:1 ratio.
Well, as I had previously posted, the boat has never let me down on the water. I went to do an oil change this fall, and found water in the oil. Compression was low on cylinder #5, and a...
I have a 1996 Alpha One Gen 2 Sterndrive, and when it was new it would cause the engine to overheat. After quite a bit of back and forth with Mercruiser, they determined that the plate under the impeller was warped, and allowing air to get sucked into the water flow. The fix was to seal the...
