1999 sailfish fuel filters

[Gianni]

Would anyone happen to know the model of the Yamaha fuel filters on a 99 sailfish? My boat is covered and I want to get them before it’s uncovered..

The typical blue filter without the bottom bleed knob. I would imagine we all have the same style.

Thank you

Most likely it's this one
Yamaha Outboard MAR-FUELF-IL-TR 10-Micron Fuel Water

I just want to add my two cents about how I deal with these filters:
In the spring, I get the boat ready and when everything is connected and primed, I start and run the motor to make sure it works OK. Note that I haven't replaced any filters yet. If I fogged the motor before storage, I don't replace the plugs yet either. When I am confident that all is OK, gas is not bad, etc., that is when I install the new filters and plugs if it's time. If there is gunk left over, I prefer to contaminate the old filters. Same for plugs. The fogging oil residue generates a lot of smoke and I would rather foul up the old plugs.
