Quicksilver 858004Q is a high-efficiency replacement oil filter for select MerCruiser gasoline engines. Its media is rated to remove 97% of oil contaminants. An anti-drain back valve helps with startup lubrication and fewer dry starts, and the metal shell is 50% thicker than conventional filters. Applications include GM in-line 4 and 6 cylinder and V-8 engines, Crusader (replaces 201104) and Volvo Penta (replaces 835440-9). Change it after every 50 hours of normal use.
Our take
The anti-drain back valve matters at startup, since it is there to keep oil in the filter and reduce dry starts. The shell is also 50% thicker than conventional filters, a plus on a wet engine bay.
