Important – Please Check Compatibility

Please do not order by horsepower or appearance alone.

Yamaha produced different 4 HP, 5 HP and 6 HP engine configurations, and the correct gear selector components can depend on the exact model and production series.

Before purchasing, please check:

Engine is Yamaha
Engine is 4 Stroke
Exact engine model
Engine serial number
Single/twin-cylinder configuration
Existing shift rod connector
Original Yamaha part number

For the safest identification, check that your engine uses 68D-G4145-00 and 68D-G4146-00, or the corresponding superseding numbers.

If the part looks the same as yours, this does not always mean it is the correct one for your outboard.

If you are unsure, please send us your engine model and serial number before purchasing and our technical team will be happy to check compatibility.
