Engine Compatibility

Serial Number Fitment Notice
O-ring fitment depends on the exact engine, drive, trim system, component group, and serial number range. Always confirm compatibility using the Mercury or MerCruiser serial number and the exact parts diagram before ordering, especially because 25-23145 appears in many different assemblies.
When This Part Needs Replacement
Replace this O-ring whenever the related assembly is opened, or if the original seal is flattened, cut, brittle, swollen, cracked, missing, or no longer sealing properly. Reusing a compressed or damaged O-ring can lead to leaks and repeat service.
Installation Notes
Clean the O-ring groove and mating surface before installation. Lightly lubricate the O-ring with the service-manual-approved lubricant where specified, and make sure it seats evenly without twisting, stretching, rolling, or pinching during assembly. Confirm the exact diagram location before installation because this O-ring has broad Mercury and MerCruiser usage.

Parts Desk Insight
This is a broad-use Mercury sealing ring, so the safest match is the exact parts diagram callout. The size is important, but diagram location matters just as much because the same O-ring can appear in different engines, drives, and trim assemblies.
