YAMAHA GASOLINE FILTER 6BG-13915-00 REC6BG-13915-00

Function and technical context

This fuel filter plays a critical role in the fuel delivery system of Yamaha outboard engines, intercepting particles, sediment and contaminants before they reach the carburetor or injection system. Installed in the supply line between the tank and the engine, it protects the injectors and valves from obstructions that would compromise the performance of the engine. A deteriorated or saturated filter generates internal deposits that cause loss of power, poor starts and abnormal fuel consumption, while the lack of filtration significantly increases the risk of corrosion and damage to precision components.

When to replace this part?

It is recommended to inspect and replace the fuel filter annually before the start of the boating season, or after 100-150 hours of continuous operation; Symptoms of wear include difficulties in cold starting, jerky acceleration, progressive loss of maximum revolutions and visible deposits on the filter element. Preventive replacement during winter maintenance prevents unexpected breakdowns at sea and prolongs the life of the carburetor and injectors.
