The Mercury Marine 8M0146206 Water Separating Fuel Filter Element is a genuine Mercury OEM fuel system component designed to remove water, dirt, rust and other contaminants from the fuel supply before they reach critical engine components. Featuring 10-micron filtration, this filter provides over 90% filtration efficiency, helping protect fuel injectors, fuel pumps and other sensitive fuel system components from contamination and premature wear.
This spin-on filter element is designed for use with Racor-style filter heads featuring a 1″-14 thread and is supplied without the clear collection bowl. Water separation is particularly important in marine applications where condensation and fuel contamination can lead to corrosion, poor engine performance and costly fuel system repairs.
Manufactured to Mercury Marine specifications, the 8M0146206 filter is engineered to provide reliable fuel flow while effectively separating water and debris from the fuel supply. Regular replacement helps maintain optimum engine performance, fuel economy and long-term reliability. Mercury recommends replacing fuel filters at least annually or according to the engine maintenance schedule.
