Troubleshooting & FAQ

Q: How do I confirm this part fits my engine?
A: The best method is to match your existing part number to one of the cross-reference numbers listed, such as Johnson/Evinrude 397839 or Sierra 18-7350. Also, check your engine's HP and year against the compatibility table. This pump fits a wide range of Johnson/Evinrude models from 4.5 HP to 25 HP made between 1968 and 1992.

Q: What is the correct horsepower range? Some sources show 4.5-15 HP, others up to 25 HP.
A: Our data shows the most commonly cited range is 4.5–15 HP. However, some reliable sources confirm compatibility up to 25 HP for the same part number. We recommend verifying your specific engine's OEM part number to be certain. If your 20 or 25 HP motor uses one of the listed part numbers, this pump will fit.

Q: Does this fit my Mercury outboard?
A: This fuel pump replaces Mercury OEM part number 878965. However, specific Mercury engine models and years that use this part are not well-documented. If your current pump is stamped with 878965, this part will serve as a direct replacement.
