It is built to trap fine contaminants and particulate before they reach the carburetor or fuel injection system, helping protect internal fuel system components from debris-related wear and clogging. The element is tested and approved for use with ethanol-based fuels, making it suitable for the ethanol-blended gasoline commonly found at the pump today.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis filter element fits inside the existing fuel filter housing on applicable Yamaha F6 and F8 outboards (2001 and up), replacing the factory element during routine fuel system maintenance. Installing a fresh element at regular service intervals helps maintain consistent fuel flow and supports reliable engine performance. As a direct OEM-equivalent replacement, it installs into the stock housing without modification.\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 18-7955\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fuel Filter Element\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMicron Rating:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10 micron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOuter Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.08 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Taiwan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 808282291792\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEthanol Fuel Compatible:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, tested and approved for ethanol-based fuels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eYamaha F6, F8 outboards (2001 \u0026amp; Up)\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eReplaces (OEM)\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e68T-24251-00-00\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does the Sierra 18-7955 fuel filter element fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Sierra 18-7955 fuel filter element fits Yamaha F6 and F8 outboards, model year 2001 and up.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the OEM part number this filter replaces?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 18-7955 replaces Yamaha OEM part number 68T-24251-00-00.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat micron rating is the 18-7955 fuel filter element?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is a 10 micron fuel filter element, designed to trap fine particulate and debris from the fuel before it reaches the engine's fuel system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Sierra 18-7955 compatible with ethanol-blended fuel?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the 18-7955 fuel filter element is tested and approved for use with ethanol-based fuels.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat material is the 18-7955 fuel filter element made from?\u003c\/strong\u003e The outer material of the Sierra 18-7955 fuel filter element is plastic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the Sierra 18-7955 fuel filter element weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Sierra 18-7955 fuel filter element weighs 0.08 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Sierra 18-7955 a genuine OEM part or an aftermarket replacement?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 18-7955 is a Sierra-branded replacement element built as a direct equivalent to the Yamaha OEM element, not a Yamaha-branded genuine part.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere is the Sierra 18-7955 fuel filter element manufactured?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 18-7955 fuel filter element's country of origin is Taiwan.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the 18-7955 come with a housing or just the filter element?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 18-7955 is the replacement fuel filter element only; it installs into the existing fuel filter housing on the applicable Yamaha F6\/F8 outboard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow often should the Sierra 18-7955 fuel filter element be replaced?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 18-7955 element should be replaced during routine fuel system maintenance to maintain consistent fuel flow and protect the engine's fuel system from contaminants.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sierra","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48988426928347,"sku":"SIE-18-7955","price":20.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/SIE-18-7955__86599.1558186498.500.750.jpg?v=1785187985","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/sierra-18-7955-10-micron-fuel-filter-element-replaces-yamaha-68f-24563-10-00-fits-150-300-hp-z-vz-lz-outboards-2004-2006","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
