Quicksilver Mercury Outboard filter cut open

[jeepman3071]

Quicksilver 35-822626Q03 off a Mercury 20hp 4-stroke outboard engine. It is unknown how long the filter has been on the engine, it did have some rust on the outside and the paint was flaking off, so probably a while.

ADBV was still pliable, the media seems decent although there were globs of glue here and there. It was replaced with a Napa 1365.

Interesting, not a filter you see every day! I can't tell the manufacturer from the pictures. Is that a rounded base gasket? Might suggest a Denso if it is.

I was thinking an older Champ made, it has the blue button bypass that some Champ filters have.

Messy with the glue but looks OK overall.

Crusty on the outside, tender juicy on the inside.

I would cross reference it and buy a different brand. The Quicksilver is usually quite high in price.

+1. When I was boating I used a Fram filter and usually bought from a Marine store for about $10. I happened to be in a Walmart store and saw the same Fram filter for $3.99. Lesson learned. Ed

I noted this in the original post.

It did have a round base gasket.
