BSNOVT Fuel Pump Priming Bulb for Mercury 8–20HP 2005–2008 — OEM 895124 Fit, Durable Rubber & Steel Ring

BSNOVT fuel pump priming bulb 895124 is a direct-fit replacement priming pump for Mercury 4-stroke carb outboards (8HP–20HP, 2005–2008) that restores quick starting and seals the fuel line.

This priming bulb is built to match the original OEM 895124 fit and function for Mercury carbureted outboard motors from 2005 to 2008. Constructed from durable rubber with a reinforced steel-ring fastening design, it is intended to resist wear in marine environments and prevent air ingress or fuel backflow while you start the engine. The assembly ships ready to install and is suitable for boat owners, mechanics, and anyone maintaining older Mercury 4-stroke engines.

How will this priming bulb improve starting my Mercury outboard?

By manually pressurizing the fuel line before cranking, the priming bulb moves fuel into the carburetor so the engine receives a steady supply on startup. That reduces cranking times and helps avoid repeated pulls or prolonged starting attempts. It replaces worn or cracked bulbs that allow air into the system.

• Restores fuel delivery to the carburetor for faster ignition.
• Prevents air locks that cause hard starting or sputtering.
• Replaces OEM part 895124 for correct fit and operation.

Is this BSNOVT assembly compatible with my Mercury model and year?

This priming bulb assembly is made to fit Mercury 4-stroke carbureted outboard motors listed as 8HP, 9.9HP, 10HP, 15HP, and 20HP manufactured between 2005 and 2008. It matches the footprint and connection style of the OEM 895124 to ensure a plug-and-play replacement. Verify compatibility by checking your engine horsepower and year before ordering.

• Compatible horsepower: 8HP, 9.9HP, 10HP, 15HP, 20HP.
• Model years covered: 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008.
• Replaces OE/Mercury part number 895124.

What materials and design features make this priming bulb durable?

The bulb uses wear-resistant rubber formulated for fuel exposure and temperature swings commonly encountered on boats. A reinforced steel ring fastening improves sealing at the mounts and resists slippage or loosening under vibration. Together these features extend service life compared with deteriorated factory bulbs.

• Durable rubber resists cracking and fuel degradation.
• Steel-reinforced ring secures connections and improves sealing.
• Designed to minimize fuel backflow and air entry during priming.

How easy is installation and what does the package include?

Installation is straightforward: the assembly is supplied ready-to-install as a drop-in replacement for the OEM unit. No special tools are typically required beyond common hand tools to detach hose clamps and secure the new bulb. The package contains one complete priming bulb assembly so you can replace the old unit in a single service.

• Package includes: 1 x priming bulb assembly (plug-and-play).
• Quick swap with standard hose clamps and fittings.
• Recommended: inspect hoses and clamps while replacing the bulb.

Who is this for: This BSNOVT priming bulb is intended for boat owners, marinas, and marine technicians working on Mercury 4-stroke carbureted outboards from 2005 to 2008 (8–20HP). It’s a practical maintenance or repair part when the existing bulb is cracked, soft, leaking, or allowing air into the fuel line. Choose this OE-replacement assembly if you need a rugged, correctly sized bulb that simplifies priming and helps restore reliable starting performance.
