If your outboard is reluctant to start or needs extra pulls to get fuel to the carburetor, this replacement primer choke solenoid from X4XZ offers a straightforward fix. Engineered to match OEM fit and function, the 5007356 (also referenced as 437233, 437238, 43762, 434326, 397909, 582865) fits a wide range of Johnson and Evinrude engines from the 1980s through the early 2000s. It’s intended for hobbyists and professional mechanics who want an affordable, durable part that reinstates correct fuel priming without complicated adjustments.

How does this primer choke solenoid help when my outboard won’t start?

The solenoid supplies a quick metered burst of fuel to the engine’s intake during cold starts or after prolonged storage. By closing and opening at the correct time it prevents the need for multiple pulls and reduces flooding or choking issues associated with worn or leaking original parts.

• Delivers an immediate fuel prime at first pull to speed ignition.
• Prevents over-flooding by controlling fuel flow timing.
• Simple one-for-one replacement of worn or faulty factory units.
• Reduces strain on starter and ignition components from repeated cranking.

Will this fit my Johnson, Evinrude or OMC engine?

The X4XZ 5007356 is designed specifically for many Johnson and Evinrude models produced between 1980 and 2005 and certain OMC Quiet Rider and 1.6L–4.0L engines. Cross-reference numbers supplied with your service manual — such as 5828665 and 397909 — to confirm compatibility. When in doubt, compare mounting, electrical connector style, and shaft/cable interface to your existing unit.

• Compatible with Johnson/Evinrude 9.9–300 HP models (1980–2005).
• Works with 1991–1993 OMC 90–115 HP Quiet Rider models.
• Fits 1982–1990 OMC 1.6L–4.0L engines that use the same part numbers.
• Direct replacement for factory part numbers listed in product details.

How durable and reliable is the X4XZ replacement unit?

Built from corrosion-resistant materials and assembled to meet or exceed OEM quality, this solenoid resists marine environments and repeated use. The robust construction reduces the chance of premature failure from salt, moisture, or vibration when installed correctly and maintained as part of regular seasonal service.

• Corrosion-resistant housing for marine exposure.
• Sealed electrical connections to minimize moisture intrusion.
• Manufactured for extended service life under normal boating conditions.
• Backed by one-year product support and responsive customer service.

How straightforward is installation and maintenance?

Installation is typically a direct swap: remove the old solenoid, transfer any brackets or linkages, and connect the electrical harness. No special reprogramming is required; however, follow torque specs and wiring polarity in your service manual to ensure correct operation. Routine inspection for loose connectors and corrosion keeps performance consistent season after season.

• One-to-one replacement—same mounting pattern and connectors.
• No calibration or special tools needed for most installs.
• Check and clean connectors during annual service intervals.
• If unsure, consult a marine mechanic or official service guide.

Who is this for: The X4XZ 5007356 Fuel Primer Choke Solenoid is aimed at boat owners, DIY marine technicians and repair shops who need a dependable, OEM-style replacement for aging Johnson, Evinrude and OMC primer chokes. It’s a practical option when troubleshooting hard starts or intermittent fuel delivery on applicable outboard engines and for anyone who prefers a durable aftermarket part backed by one-year support and responsive customer service.
