It is a direct replacement for Yamaha outboard needle valves 61N-14392-00-00, 62Y-14392-00-00, and 6L2-14392-00-00, as well as Mercury Marine 8095701, making it a straightforward swap when a carburetor is leaking, flooding, or not holding fuel level correctly. The valve is constructed of metal with a rubber tip and uses a threaded inlet connection with two ports, matching the fitment and function of the original equipment part it replaces. Each package includes one needle valve, sized precisely at 0.39 x 0.39 x 0.39 inches, so it seats correctly in the carburetor bowl without modification. Sierra manufactures this part to meet or exceed the specifications of the original equipment it is designed to replace, giving boat owners and marine technicians a reliable option for carburetor rebuilds and fuel system maintenance. Because a worn or damaged needle valve is a common cause of flooding, rough idle, or hard starting in outboard engines, keeping a correct-fit replacement like the 18-7049 on hand is useful for routine carburetor service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sierra\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18-7049\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eValve Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Needle Valve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Metal, Rubber\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.39 x 0.39 x 0.39 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Ports:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Connection Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Threaded\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit Count:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 Count\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eInterchangeable with carburetors originally fitted with Yamaha Outboard 61N-14392-00-00, 62Y-14392-00-00, or 6L2-14392-00-00 needle valves, and with Mercury Marine 8095701.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eReplaces (OEM)\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMercury Marine 8095701\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYamaha Outboard 61N-14392-00-00\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYamaha Outboard 62Y-14392-00-00\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYamaha Outboard 6L2-14392-00-00\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does the Sierra 18-7049 needle valve fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Sierra 18-7049 is designed to fit carburetors that originally used Yamaha Outboard needle valves 61N-14392-00-00, 62Y-14392-00-00, or 6L2-14392-00-00, as well as Mercury Marine 8095701.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Sierra 18-7049 the same as Yamaha 61N-14392-00-00?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the Sierra 18-7049 is interchangeable with Yamaha 61N-14392-00-00, along with Yamaha 62Y-14392-00-00 and 6L2-14392-00-00.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill this needle valve work in place of Mercury 8095701?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the Sierra 18-7049 is interchangeable with Mercury Marine part number 8095701.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the Sierra 18-7049 made of?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is a metal-bodied needle valve with a rubber tip, matching the construction of the original equipment carburetor valve it replaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many needle valves come in one package?\u003c\/strong\u003e One Sierra 18-7049 needle valve is included per package.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the dimensions of the 18-7049 needle valve?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Sierra 18-7049 measures 0.39 x 0.39 x 0.39 inches, small enough to fit directly into the original carburetor bowl seat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the 18-7049 needle valve weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e It weighs 0.1 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat symptoms indicate a needle valve like the 18-7049 needs replacing?\u003c\/strong\u003e A worn or stuck needle valve typically causes carburetor flooding, an unstable fuel level in the bowl, rough idle, or hard starting, and replacing it with a part like the Sierra 18-7049 restores proper fuel shutoff.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the 18-7049 use a threaded connection?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the Sierra 18-7049 has a threaded inlet connection and two ports, consistent with the original equipment design.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Sierra 18-7049 genuine OEM or aftermarket?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Sierra 18-7049 is an aftermarket part manufactured by Sierra to meet or exceed the specifications of the original equipment needle valve it replaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan the 18-7049 be installed during a carburetor rebuild?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the Sierra 18-7049 needle valve is commonly installed as part of a carburetor rebuild or when addressing a flooding or fuel level issue.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sierra","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48988360638683,"sku":"SIE-18-7049","price":20.81,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/SIE-18-7049__41921.1558189003.500.750.jpg?v=1785189155","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/needle-valve-for-yamaha-c30-outboard-1993-1997-replaces-61n-14392-00-00-sierra-18-7049-fuel-system-carburetor-inlet-valve","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
