Review on 🔍 Quicksilver 816296Q2 Marine Engine Fuel Filter for 5/16-Inch (8 mm) Fuel Lines - Enhanced Inline Filtering with Barbs by Nathan Akers

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Precise fit. best spare parts

like original. Holds in the hood of a 2005 Mercury 50 elpto with navy blue zip ties. Relatively unbound screeds for installation. I also bought some marine hose ties and they worked, but testing the original tie with new ones showed that the original ties are much stronger. However, I have a relatively low pressure fuel system and the new ones worked on that filter. In case you don't know, regular cable ties have a flat head, while hose ties have a rounded head or a curved head that is better at squeezing the hose from all sides. However, the original ties are flat-headed and work great. I would like to wonder if width and narrowness could be more important.

Pros
