New-Generally in the package when possible but due to shelf time, these packages and boxes are sometimes dirty. We try very hard to ensure that nothing has been removed, damaged from shelf life, etc...and items are guaranteed to be in brand new condition, complete, and so forth. Package may have been opened for pictures.
Fits:
From what wecan get a cross reference on, this part number preceeded and superceedes several times. The only numbers that I can get any information on though are 818535A15 and 398-5454A25. Those years and horsepowers are as follows:
1980-89 40, 45 and 50 HP 1989-97 40 HP
This may fit other engines. However, the cross-reference above is all we pulled up with the Mercury Electronic Parts Catalog. If you intend to use this on any other engine, please speak with a Mercury dealer or mechanic before purchasing.
