Oil Filter Element 6G8-13440-00 18-7901 for Yamaha F9.9 T9.9 9.9 HP 4 Stroke Outboard
Oil Filter Element 6G8-13440-00 18-7901 for Yamaha F9.9 T9.9 9.9 HP 4 Stroke Outboard
Product Overview
Oil filter element for Yamaha 9.9 HP four stroke outboards, the drop in element that sits in the oil cleaner housing on the side of the block. It replaces 6G8-13440-00, crosses to Sierra 18-7901 and to Mercury and Mariner 825467A1 and 825467T1, and it ships in a 15 x 10 x 5 cm box.
It fits the F9.9 and T9.9 families, including the F9.9 MS, LH, ES, LR, B, MHS, MLH and S/LMH variants, the FT9.9A and FT9.9 high thrust models, and the T9.9 EL, XR, ELH, ML and XH tiller models. Yamaha catalogues the part as an oil cleaner element, which is the engine oil filter rather than the fuel filter.
These are the small four strokes that idle for hours pushing a tender, a pontoon or a sailboat into a marina, and that is the hardest duty an oil filter sees. The element loads up with moisture and fine metal long before the oil looks dirty, and a blocked element opens the bypass, which means the bearings run on unfiltered oil with no gauge to tell you.
