Installation Guide

  1. Safety First: Disconnect the boat's battery before beginning any work.
  2. Access the Y-Pipe: Locate the exhaust Y-pipe (bullhorn) where the exhaust collects before exiting the transom. You may need to remove other components for access.
  3. Remove the Old Shutter: Carefully remove the old, worn-out water shutter and its grommets from the Y-pipe.
  4. Clean the Surface: Thoroughly clean the mounting area inside the Y-pipe, removing any debris or old rubber residue.
  5. Install New Grommets: Insert the four new grommets into their designated holes in the Y-pipe.
  6. Install the New Shutter: Position the new water shutter, ensuring it is correctly aligned with the cross pin. The shutter should move freely.
  7. Reassemble Components: Re-install any exhaust hoses or components that were removed for access.
  8. Final Checks: Reconnect the battery. Start the engine and check for any exhaust or water leaks around the service area.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

Q: How do I know if this water shutter will fit my MerCruiser engine?
A: This kit is for MerCruiser 4.3L V6 engines using a 1-piece exhaust manifold. Crucially, it fits Y-pipes (bullhorns) that have a 2.98-inch cross pin diameter. Please measure your existing setup or consult your service manual to confirm this dimension before ordering. You can also check the compatible model list on this page using your engine's serial number range.

Q: What is the purpose of the exhaust water shutter?
A: The shutter acts as a one-way valve in your exhaust system. It is critical for preventing water from flowing back up into the engine when it is off or at idle RPMs, which could cause hydrolocking—a catastrophic and costly engine failure.

Q: When should I replace the water shutter?
A: We recommend inspecting the shutter annually as part of regular maintenance. You should replace it immediately if you see any signs of cracking, brittleness, peeling, or other physical damage. A faulty shutter can lead to severe engine damage from water ingestion.

Q: OEM vs. Aftermarket?
A: This listing is an aftermarket replacement part (not an OEM component). We build to OEM specifications using comparable-grade materials. Production is done in an ISO9002-certified facility, and each batch is inspected for consistent performance.

Q: How fast do you ship and how much does it cost?
A: We offer fast global shipping—typically 5–15 days worldwide—and standard shipping is free. Expedited options are available at checkout depending on your location.

Q: What is your warranty and return policy?
A: This product includes a 1-year warranty against manufacturing defects under normal use. If something goes wrong, contact our support team with your order details. Returns are accepted within our standard return window (unused & in original condition); please see our policy page or reach out for instructions.

Cheap, screw holes don't line up, screen is to short, and bars take WD-40 and a mallet
This has been my worst purchase on Amazon ever. DO NOT BUY. My first issue was that bars #4 and #5 would not go together, I ended up buying WD-40 and a mallet and that kind of got them together. Now I went to but the screen on (which is almost see thought) and the screen is to short. I can't attached the bottom bar to the tall bar. The screw hole is in the wrong spot, so the screen is not secure. No amount of pulling on the screen will make it grown .25" longer. Since I can't get the bars secure the walls are not steady and fall over easily. The feet did go together very nice. I can't return them according to Amazons policy. I bought 2 sets. I'm not going to try to build the other set I have. And I can't take apart the first set, since the bars are so tightly together. Also the polls have rust on them.

Very Poor Built Quality
Color: Black, Size: 3-Panel
They use cheap tarp like cloth that you might find on a tent, so it is not suitable as a teleconferencing background without blur applied. The legs are flimsy and lack rubber feet, so it will scratch floors. The tubing is flimsy and very hard to move and adjust. This is only good if you are setting it up somewhere like a gym or a garage.

Great Product that does exactly what it says it will.
Color: Beige, Size: 34"- 3 Panel
I really enjoy this product and it does exactly what it describes. I use it on my balcony. It is effective, but still very lightweight. It is easy to assemble as well. The price point is excellent. Also, I had an interaction with the company about an issue and they were incredibly responsive and helpful, fixing the issue immediately. Highly recommend.
