It is a direct replacement for Mercury OEM part 35-879885T, giving outboard owners a straightforward way to maintain clean fuel delivery to the engine without sourcing the original factory part. Inline fuel filters like this one sit in the fuel supply line between the tank and the engine, trapping debris and contaminants before they can reach the fuel pump or injectors, which helps protect against clogging and premature wear on fuel system components.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis filter is engineered specifically for Mercury's 4-Stroke Verado line, covering the 135, 150, and 175 HP models (serial number 1B227000 and up), the 200 and 225 HP models (serial number OT980000 and up), and the 250 and 275 HP models (serial number OT801000 and up). Because Verado outboards were produced across multiple serial number ranges, confirming your engine's serial number against these ranges before ordering ensures you get the correct fitment. At just 0.06 pounds, the filter is a compact, lightweight component that installs into the existing fuel line without modification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e EMP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 35-35205\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Inline Fuel Filter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5\/16 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReplaces (OEM):\u003c\/strong\u003e 35-879885T\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitment:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mercury 135\/150\/175 4-Stroke Verado (S\/N 1B227000 \u0026amp; Up); 200\/225 4-Stroke Verado (S\/N OT980000 \u0026amp; Up); 250\/275 4-Stroke Verado (S\/N OT801000 \u0026amp; Up)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.06 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 840080458014\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMercury 135\/150\/175 HP 4-Stroke Verado (S\/N 1B227000 \u0026amp; Up)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMercury 200\/225 HP 4-Stroke Verado (S\/N OT980000 \u0026amp; Up)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMercury 250\/275 HP 4-Stroke Verado (S\/N OT801000 \u0026amp; Up)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eReplaces (OEM)\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e35-879885T\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does the EMP 35-35205 fuel filter fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e The EMP 35-35205 fits Mercury 4-Stroke Verado outboards in three groups: 135\/150\/175 HP (S\/N 1B227000 \u0026amp; Up), 200\/225 HP (S\/N OT980000 \u0026amp; Up), and 250\/275 HP (S\/N OT801000 \u0026amp; Up).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this the same as Mercury part 35-879885T?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the EMP 35-35205 is a direct replacement for Mercury OEM part 35-879885T.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size fitting does this fuel filter use?\u003c\/strong\u003e It uses a 5\/16 inch inline fitting, matching the standard fuel line size on the Verado models it fits.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the EMP 35-35205 fuel filter weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e This inline fuel filter weighs 0.06 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill this filter fit any Mercury Verado outboard?\u003c\/strong\u003e No, only the specific 4-Stroke Verado HP groups and serial number ranges listed for the EMP 35-35205: 135\/150\/175 HP (S\/N 1B227000 \u0026amp; Up), 200\/225 HP (S\/N OT980000 \u0026amp; Up), and 250\/275 HP (S\/N OT801000 \u0026amp; Up).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy are there different serial number cutoffs for this filter?\u003c\/strong\u003e Mercury updated the Verado fuel system design at different points in production for each HP group, so the EMP 35-35205 is specified against the serial number where each group's compatible design begins.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the EMP 35-35205 a genuine Mercury part or aftermarket?\u003c\/strong\u003e The EMP 35-35205 is manufactured as a replacement for Mercury OEM part 35-879885T rather than a Mercury-branded original part.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I confirm my outboard's serial number qualifies for this filter?\u003c\/strong\u003e Check the serial number stamped on your Mercury 4-Stroke Verado engine against the ranges listed for the 35-35205: 1B227000 \u0026amp; Up for 135\/150\/175 HP, OT980000 \u0026amp; Up for 200\/225 HP, or OT801000 \u0026amp; Up for 250\/275 HP.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is included when I order the EMP 35-35205?\u003c\/strong\u003e The order includes one EMP 35-35205 inline fuel filter sized for a 5\/16 inch fuel line.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I install this fuel filter myself?\u003c\/strong\u003e The EMP 35-35205 is an inline fuel filter designed to fit into the existing 5\/16 inch fuel line on compatible Mercury 4-Stroke Verado outboards.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"EMP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48991284658395,"sku":"EMP-35-35205","price":11.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/EMP_35-35205_Mercury_Inline_Fuel_Filter__15012.1722477987.500.750.jpg?v=1785329108","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/inline-fuel-filter-35-879885t-for-mercury-verado-4-stroke-135-275-hp-5-16-in","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
