{"product_id":"merc-970","title":"Mercury Quicksilver Oil Filter 883702K","description":"\u003cp\u003eQuicksilver 883702K is a genuine OEM screw-on engine oil filter for select MerCruiser V6 sterndrive and inboard engines with the oil filter mounted directly on the engine block. Current Mercury Marine references position this filter specifically for block-mounted V6 applications and state that it is not for engines with a remote oil filter setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine OEM \u003cstrong\u003eMercury \/ Quicksilver\u003c\/strong\u003e part number \u003cstrong\u003e883702K\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits \u003cstrong\u003eMerCruiser V6 engines with the oil filter mounted on the engine block\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNot for use with V6 engines that have a remote oil filter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUses Mercury's \u003cstrong\u003eM-Pleated\u003c\/strong\u003e filter media for contaminant removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMarine-style construction with thicker shell and corrosion-resistant finish compared with conventional filters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eEngine Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe strongest supportable fitment for 883702K is \u003cstrong\u003eMerCruiser V6 engines without remote oil filters\u003c\/strong\u003e, especially \u003cstrong\u003e4.3L V6 block-mounted filter applications\u003c\/strong\u003e. Current dealer fitment references specifically call out \u003cstrong\u003eMCM V-6 models\u003c\/strong\u003e and list examples including \u003cstrong\u003e4.3L GEN+ 4BBL reman\u003c\/strong\u003e and multiple \u003cstrong\u003e4.3L CARB ALPHA\/BRAVO\u003c\/strong\u003e serial ranges. Because MerCruiser filter applications can change by mounting style and serial break, final fitment should still be confirmed by engine serial number before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSerial Number Fitment Notice\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVerify part number \u003cstrong\u003e883702K\u003c\/strong\u003e against your engine serial number before ordering. The most important fitment break on this filter is \u003cstrong\u003eblock-mounted versus remote oil filter\u003c\/strong\u003e configuration, and that matters more than engine family alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhen This Part Needs Replacement\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReplace this oil filter at every scheduled oil change, or sooner if the engine has seen heavy use, contamination, or long storage intervals. Current dealer service guidance for this filter commonly recommends replacement every \u003cstrong\u003e100 hours or once per season\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a standard screw-on oil filter that installs with common hand tools and an oil filter wrench. After installation, check for leaks and confirm oil level according to the engine service procedure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAlternate\/Superseded Part Numbers\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCurrent market references show \u003cstrong\u003e883702K\u003c\/strong\u003e alongside \u003cstrong\u003e883702Q\u003c\/strong\u003e as the closely related Quicksilver-branded reference for the same general V6 block-mounted filter application. When matching older inventory or dealer listings, both numbers may appear in the same product family, so serial-number confirmation is still the safest path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eParts Desk Insight\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe easy mistake with this filter is ordering by engine size only. On MerCruiser V6 models, the real checkpoint is whether the filter mounts \u003cstrong\u003eon the block\u003c\/strong\u003e or the engine uses a \u003cstrong\u003eremote filter system\u003c\/strong\u003e. That one detail usually decides whether 883702K is the right filter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShipping:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ships same or next day for fast Canada wide shipping. ⚓\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MERC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43563901354020,"sku":"883702K","price":20.05,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0743\/5799\/7604\/files\/39e0b955-5b19-4a28-8f47-3ec1c930ef10.png?v=1776654612","url":"https:\/\/marisolmarine.com\/products\/merc-970","provider":"Marisol Marine Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
