Sierra Fuel Filter Element 18-7936, Replaces Mercury Marine 881540, Fits Mercury/Mariner 225 hp EFI FourStroke Outboards

The Sierra 18-7936 is a medium-grade fuel filter element built for Mercury/Mariner 225 hp EFI FourStroke outboards. It uses a 20 micron filtration medium to trap contaminants and debris in the fuel before they reach the engine, helping protect injectors and fuel system components from the damage that dirty or contaminated fuel can cause. The element's outer material is polyethylene, giving it durability for repeated service in a marine fuel system environment.

This is a direct-fit replacement element designed as an equivalent to the original equipment filter used on the applicable Mercury/Mariner FourStroke outboards, so installation follows the same filter housing and service interval as the OEM part it replaces. It ships as a single filter element (unit count of 1) ready to install into the existing fuel filter housing.
