PCM Water Outlet Adapter | 97295

PCM Water Outlet Adapter | 97295

Maintain a leak-free connection at the engines water outlet with this OEM-specification adapter for PCM inboard engines. The water outlet adapter connects the engines coolant exit point typically at or near the thermostat housing to the cooling hose circuit that routes coolant through the heat exchanger or overboard. A cracked, corroded, or stripped adapter at this junction causes coolant loss and rapid overheating.

At this price point, this is a precision-machined metal component built to PCM specifications correct thread form, port diameter, and sealing surface for a reliable, long-term connection in the cooling circuit.

Best Use Case

Best suited for replacing a cracked, corroded, or damaged water outlet adapter during cooling system service on PCM inboard engines. Also the correct part when the existing adapter has stripped threads, a damaged sealing face, or is leaking at the housing joint despite a new gasket and correct torque. Commonly disturbed during thermostat replacement or cooling system overhaul, making it a logical inspection point any time the water outlet area is accessed.

Parts Desk Insights

Confirm fitment using your engine model and serial number before ordering water outlet configurations vary across PCM engine families and model years. When replacing this adapter, also replace the associated gasket and inspect the mating housing face for corrosion or warping that could prevent a proper seal. The cooling hose that connects to this adapter PCM Engine Cooling Hose Assembly 97310 and its clamp PCM Engine Cooling Hose Clamp 97309 are sequential catalog parts and should be inspected at the same time.
