2 filters for a Mercruiser:<br /><br />35-807172 and 35-802893Q<br /><br />Both say they fit the external mount filter system. Both say they are water separating.<br /><br />What's the differance? Is one better than the other?<br /><br />Im running a 305 (220hp) GM Merc. I have the 807172 on it now.<br /><br />Thanks,<br /><br />H.

homerr, the 807172 is the old #, it superceded to the 802893Q if you or dealer still has the 807172 they are fine to use. don't know what the exact diff between the two are, but we had no problems with the 807172
