Installation Guide

1. Safety First: Disconnect the negative battery cable. Work in a well-ventilated area and have a fire extinguisher nearby.
2. Relieve Fuel Pressure: Follow your engine's service manual procedure to safely relieve pressure from the fuel system.
3. Access the VST: Locate the vapor separator tank (VST) on your engine. Remove the screws or bolts securing the VST cover.
4. Remove Old Filter: Carefully lift the cover. The high-pressure fuel filter will be inside. Note the orientation of the old filter and its spring before removing them.
5. Install New Filter: Place the new filter element into the VST housing, ensuring it is seated correctly with its spring.
6. Replace O-Ring: Crucially, install a new cover plate O-ring (sold separately) to ensure a high-pressure seal. Do not reuse the old one.
7. Reassemble: Secure the VST cover, tightening the fasteners to the manufacturer's specified torque.
8. Final Checks: Reconnect all fuel lines and the battery cable. Prime the fuel system according to your owner's manual. Before starting the engine, carefully inspect the VST for any signs of fuel leaks.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I confirm this filter fits my Honda engine?
This filter fits a wide range of Honda 4-stroke outboards from 75 HP to 250 HP, generally from 1997 and newer. The best way to confirm is to check your engine's model code against the "Compatible Engine Models" table on this page and verify it replaces part numbers 16911-ZY3-010 or 16911-ZY3-000.

Where is this filter located on the engine?
This is the high-pressure fuel filter, located inside the vapor separator assembly (VST). It is not the external, low-pressure filter.

How often should I replace this filter?
For optimal performance and to protect your fuel injectors, it is recommended to replace the high-pressure fuel filter annually or every 100 hours of operation, whichever comes first. Refer to your owner's service manual for the specific maintenance schedule.

Does this filter kit include the required O-ring?
No, this filter element does not include the VST cover O-ring (Honda part number 16078-ZY3-000). You must purchase and install a new O-ring separately to prevent high-pressure fuel leaks.
