Glad I watched this - I had picked up the incorrect fuel filter - I have the same setup - although not as easy to get to...

Exactly what I was looking for! thanks!

Awesome thanks for the info. I don't know you have to start the engine before you do the replacement filter. Thanks again.

I'm getting read to replace the filters on my Meridian 368. So very helpful to see the process in a video. However, from reading the service manual, it seems like two important steps are missing. The manual says to first disconnect the wiring harness and then crank the engine to relieve any pressure in the system. I can see that the wiring harness is disconnected in your video, but this wasn't mentioned. The manual says that if you don't do these steps the system could be under pressure and cause fuel to spray.

Just replaced the same filters on my boat. Unfortunately instructions don’t tell you which way the cup o ring goes.

Great Video!

That disc filter that you removed was one of the worst that I have seen. Do you know at what interval it was changed last?

Great video! Does this apply to MerCruiser 5.0 V8 Alpha one GEN 2?

My manual said disconnect wire housing to your module turn key on for 5 seconds then proceed with removing your cool fuel filter
