Engine Compatibility

Designed for use on MerCruiser 4.5L and 6.2L sterndrive and inboard engines, plus GM-based MerCruiser sterndrive and inboard engines. Mercury notes this filter is not for V6 models with the oil filter mounted directly on the engine block.

Serial Number Fitment Notice

Oil filter fitment can vary by engine model, oil filter mounting location, production year, and serial number. Always confirm 858004K / 35-858004K against your MerCruiser engine serial number, original filter, or Mercury parts diagram before ordering.

When This Part Needs Replacement

Replace the oil filter during scheduled oil changes, seasonal maintenance, winterization, or any time the filter is damaged, corroded, leaking, restricted, or overdue for service. A clean oil filter helps reduce abrasive contaminants in the lubrication system and supports reliable long-term engine protection.

Installation Notes

Lightly oil the new filter gasket before installation, spin the filter on until the gasket contacts the mounting base, then tighten according to the engine service manual. After installation, run the engine, inspect carefully for leaks, shut down, and recheck the oil level before returning the engine to service.

Parts Desk Insight

This is the high-performance filter option for many GM-based MerCruiser applications, but the V6 block-mounted filter exception matters. The safest match is by engine serial number, original filter number, and filter mounting location rather than engine size alone.
