Troubleshooting & FAQ
How can I confirm this air filter fits my specific MerCruiser engine?
Check the 'Compatible Engine Models' table on this page. Your engine model and serial number range must match the listed values. For example, the filter fits a MerCruiser 2.0L EI 115 with a serial number between 70294910 and 70377490.
How often should I replace my diesel engine's air filter?
Replacement intervals depend on your engine's service manual recommendations and operating conditions. Regular inspection is key; replace the filter when it appears dirty or clogged to ensure optimal engine performance and fuel efficiency.
