Yamaha Marine Primary Fuel Filters FAQs
How do I service my Yamaha outboard fuel system?
Yamaha fuel system maintenance is a critical aspect of 100-hour service. Depending on your application and style of boat, you likely have a fuel-water separating filter aboard your vessel. If you have not seen one, simply follow the routing of your fuel hose from the engine rigging tube backward through the boat. These vary in shape and manufacturer, so be sure to order the identical replacement filter. Use a filter wrench to loosen the existing filter element and use caution when removing it as it will be filled with gasoline.
A clear plastic or glass container is helpful to dump the filter into and to examine the contents. A small amount of debris is common, as is a small amount of water after the fuel has had a moment to settle. Larger amounts of water would warrant further investigation. If your filter’s mounting location allows it, pre-fill the replacement filter with some gasoline to make re-priming the fuel system easier later. It is also advisable to use a small amount of grease to lubricate the o-ring prior to installation. Spin on and hand tighten only about a half turn to snug.
Continue your Yamaha fuel system maintenance by moving back to the engine and locate the filter element in the clear plastic bowl on the front of your block. Depending on your engine model, this filter cup may be removed by using a special cup wrench – or standard tools and a little caution. If applicable, unplug the water-in-fuel sensor and spin the cup off the housing. Again, drain into your clear container and examine the fuel. If your main water separator was free from water, this fuel filter element should be as well. Inspect the o-ring on the top of the filter cup and lightly grease for ease of installation or replace if needed. Replace the filter element with a fresh one and reinstall the cup. Use the cup wrench to tighten. Locate your engine’s primer bulb and use the primer to pump up the fuel system. You should observe gasoline entering and filling the filter cup. Check for leaks and prime until the bulb becomes firm. As a tip, primer bulbs work best when the arrow points up, so use any extra hose in the line to help you tilt the bulb vertical.
What is the difference between a primary filter and an in-line filter? / What is the difference between primary and secondary fuel filters?
This Yamaha fuel filter is typically on the front, side, or rear of the powerhead, and is usually made of plastic you can see through. It filters fuel coming into the outboard. This “primary” filter usually features a small water trap at the bottom of the filter attached to the cup. This is the first filter after the 10-micron filter, so if there’s water in here, it’s time to change your 10-micron. On Yamaha outboards, there may be a red ring visible inside this filter. Don’t ever remove it. If it’s floating, you’ve got water in this filter’s trap and it time for a change. Shop Yamaha primary on-engine filters
Some models have an in-line filter between the stock Yamaha primary fuel pump and the VST (vapor separator tank) and/or in the fuel line between the VST and the fuel rail, located along the top of the outboard. Refer to your service manual or contact your dealer for the exact location for your model. Shop Yamaha in-line filters
What are common Yamaha outboard engine fuel system issues?
One of the most common ways your Yamaha outboard motor will break down is a fuel system failure. Whether you’re experiencing an intermittent bog down, poor performance, or complete engine failure, your fuel system is a common culprit.
-
Ethanol gasoline: Only use premium low-ethanol gasoline for your Yamaha outboard motor. The reason is that ethanol attracts water, causing fuel to dilute through “phase separation.” Additionally, ethanol gasoline can also gunk up fuel lines and fuel system components due to additives used. To help prevent these issues, regularly use a high-quality fuel stabilizer.
-
Fuel lines: Check your fuel lines. If you discover any breaks or leaks, you should stop using the engine and make any necessary replacements. Also, take a look at any fuel hoses with an interior liner.
-
Fuel filters: The Yamaha fuel filter is designed to catch any debris and contaminants that have entered your fuel system. Regularly replace your fuel filters to keep fuel running freely.
-
Fuel pump: A malfunctioning Yamaha fuel pump can significantly reduce engine performance and, over time, severely damage other components. If your fuel pump is not working correctly, replace it and any hoses that may have been affected.
Why are there so many Yamaha outboard fuel filters?
It’s no secret that Yamaha fuel filters are necessary for outboard engines to perform properly in the harsh marine environments they regularly encounter. But the question remains, why are there so many Yamaha outboard fuel filter replacement options?
The answer is simple yet complex. All dirt is not created equally – dirt appears in various forms and sizes. Some dirt particles are larger pieces, and some are minute dust particles. Some material you can easily see, other material can be microscopic biological growth and may still be growing.
Dirt takes different forms. It may be shaped like a ball or more like an arrow. The ball type usually gets caught easily, but the arrow type may penetrate the first two filters, and second filter and get stuck in the third. Once the arrow lays across the filtering medium, it partially closes the passage holes and makes them smaller, capturing even smaller debris. The clogging will then continue. If the initial filter really becomes restricted, the vacuum on the filter may suck the debris through it and on to the next filter, and so on.
Poor fuel quality, water, ethanol, lack of fuel rotation, and biological growth all add up to clogged filters. This is why it’s essential to change all Yamaha fuel filters on a regular basis based on factory guideline recommendations. Always be sure to refer to the specific engine’s service manual for more information on recommended service intervals and the location of filters.
Some Yamaha four-stroke outboard engines require several of the fuel filters below or screens to help prevent water and debris from getting inside the engine.
How do I change my Yamaha 2-stroke outboard engine oil?
If your two-stroke Yamaha outboard has oil injection with a remote oil tank inside the boat, you will begin your service by accessing this tank. These remote tanks are not always situated in the easiest-to-reach places, so you may have to consider removing a livewell tub, cooler, or access panel to get to the tank. Loosen the tank from its bracket and locate the oil supply hose that comes from the pump on the tank and heads toward the engine. You should notice a small, white, inline filter that strains the two-stroke oil in route to the engine. This small filter is often overlooked, but without a steady supply of Yamalube two-stroke oil, your engine will quickly go into reduction mode, or worse. Cut the small zip ties that secure the oil line to the strainer and replace the strainer quickly before you drain oil all over the bilge. This process is a little messy, so a few petroleum sorbent pads can help avoid a mess. Having some good quality nitrile gloves on board the boat or around for your service is also a great idea.
With the tank loosened from its bracket, it is a great time to use a small service flashlight to illuminate the bottom corners of the tank. The clear plastic will allow you to spot any debris or water deposits accumulated inside the tank. If found, you will need to then remove water from the tank, drain, and clean. Debris is most often introduced from fill caps being left open, damaged fill cap o-rings, or dirty containers used to purchase bulk oil.
When complete, reinstall the tank into the bracket and remove the cowling from your engine. Use the manual transfer switch on the side of the engine to verify oil is flowing through your new filter and the system is primed. Your Yamaha 2-stroke oil maintenance is now complete. You are ready to begin your engine service.
Which is the primary fuel filter?
The primary fuel filter is typically located between the fuel tank and the engine. It is the first filter that the fuel passes through and is designed to remove larger particles and debris from the fuel before it reaches the secondary fuel filter.
