Tom7227 Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 I have a 2 stroke Mariner 9.9 that is about 30 years old. It has numbers on it that are o62C 1361488 and it was made in Japan. I have had it in storage for at least 8 years. I am working on getting it running and it appears a new fuel filter is needed. I have disconnected the two fuel lines and the nut that comes out of the top but it will not come out. I either have to somehow get to the base of the bracket or start to take the throttle linkage from the tiller handle out. Any suggestions? I don't know if I have to buy the entire new housing or if it comes apart and all I have to do is replace the paper filter inside. Which is it, and where would I find that part(s)? I have not tried to start it yet. I am replacing the plugs, the lower unit oil, and cleaning off what I can see when I take the cowling off. Grease where I see a zerk, grease the throttle gear under the cowling.... Other things need attention?Thanks for your time.Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boatfixer Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 You should be able unscrew the plastic bowl to get at the element. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom7227 Posted March 25, 2012 Author Share Posted March 25, 2012 I managed to get it done by taking off a couple of brackets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
