Sierra Serpentine Belt 57-865615007 for MerCruiser 8.2L MPI MIE 1998-01
This Sierra serpentine belt, part number 18-15103, is a direct-fit drive belt engineered for the cooling and accessory drive system on MerCruiser 8.2L MPI MIE inboard engines within the OL002450-OL674200 serial number range. It is built to OEM quality standards for correct fit, form, and function, so it drops in as a straightforward replacement without modification.
The belt is constructed from high-quality polychloroprene rubber reinforced with polyester fiber tensile members, giving it oil resistance and temperature stability for continuous duty in a marine engine bay. This construction resists the heat cycling, oil exposure, and constant flexing that shorten the life of lower-quality belts, helping maintain steady drive tension for the water pump, alternator, and other engine-driven accessories.
Sierra manufactures serpentine belts across a wide range of sizes to match the drive systems used on different MerCruiser engine families, and 18-15103 is the specific part engineered for the 8.2L MPI MIE application referenced above. Confirm your engine model and serial number against the range listed here before ordering to ensure correct fitment.
