When your Evinrude or Johnson starts clean and runs steady, the whole day on the water just feels easier. But when a fuel pump begins to fade, you sense it right away: lazy starts, uneven throttle, a motor that doesn’t quite feel like itself. The Quicksilver 8M6010287 Fuel Pump brings that confidence back, restoring the smooth fuel delivery your outboard depends on from the first squeeze of the primer bulb to the moment you idle back to the dock.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eDesigned for select 20–50 horsepower Evinrude and Johnson two-stroke outboards (1990–2000)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eBuilt to meet all original equipment specifications for fuel pressure and reliability\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eFuel pump only; installation hardware sold separately\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003ePrecision-engineered internal components for dependable, consistent fuel flow\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eReplaces OEM part numbers 438555 and 433386\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eIdentified in the aftermarket as Sierra 18-7353\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eEngine \u0026amp; Boat\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003e Compatibility\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eFits select 20hp, 25hp, 30hp, 40hp, and 50hp Evinrude and Johnson two-stroke models from 1990–2000\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eIdeal for fishing boats, small pontoons, utility skiffs, tiller rigs, and light-duty family runabouts\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eSuitable for both freshwater and saltwater use with normal flushing and routine care\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eCompatible with remote-steer and tiller configurations\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003ePerformance \u0026amp;\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003e Practical Benefits\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eA dependable fuel pump makes all the difference in how a two-stroke behaves. With the Quicksilver 8M6010287 installed, you’ll notice tighter, more responsive throttle control—especially during acceleration or when maneuvering at slow speeds around docks, trailers, or stumps. The engine breathes cleaner and runs steadier because it receives the correct fuel volume throughout the powerband.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eThis pump is engineered to handle the vibrations and heat that are simply part of running a two-stroke outboard. Whether you’re trolling long stretches of shoreline or opening up across the bay, the pump maintains a smooth, reliable flow that keeps the engine cool, fueled, and happy. And since it matches OEM specifications, it drops right into place with the precision fit you expect from a marine-grade Quicksilver component.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eThe result?

An OEM-spec Quicksilver pump ensures the correct pressure, proper internal tolerances, and the long-term durability your engine was designed for. Aftermarket pumps may stumble on output consistency or wear prematurely, but this one gives you reliability you don’t have to second-guess. For boaters who simply want their motor to run right the first time—and keep running right—OEM quality is worth every bit.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eFAQ\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eQ1: Which Mercury engines does this pump fit?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003e This fuel pump isn’t for Mercury engines—it’s made for select Evinrude and Johnson 20–50hp outboards.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eQ2: What sets this apart from aftermarket versions?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003e It matches OEM specifications exactly, offering better fitment, consistent flow, and long-term reliability.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eQ3: How can I confirm it fits my outboard?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003e Check your model and serial number against your service manual or the pump you’re replacing.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eQ4: Can it be used in saltwater?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003e Absolutely—just follow standard flushing and regular maintenance.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eQ5: Is installation easy?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003e Most boat owners with basic fuel system experience can install it without trouble.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mercury","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46935058284835,"sku":"8M6010287","price":72.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0783\/7410\/9475\/files\/8M6010287_Main.jpg?v=1760631538","url":"https:\/\/partsvu.com\/en-mx\/products\/mercury-wa-fuel-pump-e-j-438555-8m6010287","provider":"PartsVu","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
