Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I confirm this kit fits my specific engine?
Please review the "Compatible Engine Models" table on this page. Match your engine's brand, model series, and year to confirm fitment. You can also compare your existing part numbers to those in the "Part Number Cross-Reference" table.
What are the signs that my exhaust bellows need replacement?
Common signs of failure include visible cracks, hardening or swelling of the rubber, brittleness, or water leaking into the bilge area from the transom assembly. A noticeable increase in exhaust noise inside the boat can also indicate a leak.
How often should I inspect or replace the bellows?
A visual inspection is recommended every 50 hours or monthly. A detailed check should be performed seasonally or every 100 hours. The typical replacement interval is every 2000-3000 operating hours or 5-7 years, whichever comes first.
