Pro Marine Mercury Verado Power Steering

Pro Marine Mercury Verado Gen A / Gen B Reman Power Steering Pump 8M0134736P

The Pro Marine 8M0134736P Remanufactured Power Steering Pump is an aftermarket replacement for Mercury Verado Gen A and Gen B power steering systems. It cross references Mercury part numbers 8M0134359 and 8M0134736.

This replacement allows customers to service an existing Gen A or Gen B steering system without purchasing all the additional components required for a complete Gen C conversion.

Important: Installation requires reusing the original case from your existing power steering pump.

Warranty: 1 year. Warranty coverage is void if gelled power steering fluid is found inside the pump. See the important steering system inspection and warranty information below before installing your replacement.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION BEFORE REPLACING YOUR VERADO POWER STEERING PUMP

Why Mercury Verado Power Steering Pumps Fail

One of the primary causes of premature Verado power steering pump failure is overheating caused by restricted hydraulic fluid flow.

A problem we frequently encounter is Mercury power steering fluid becoming thick, gel-like, or contaminated. This material can accumulate inside the hydraulic steering system, particularly in the steering cylinder, restricting the movement of hydraulic fluid.

As the steering cylinder becomes restricted, the power steering pump must work harder to move hydraulic fluid through the system. This increased workload can cause the pump to overheat, operate under excessive strain, and eventually fail.

This Pro Marine replacement pump requires the original case from your existing pump. Before ordering, identify whether your boat has a Gen A, Gen B, or Gen C Verado power steering system.

Compare your existing pump number with the cross references below. This product is intended for the specified Gen A / Gen B replacement applications and is not a direct Gen C replacement.

Before installation: Check the hydraulic system for gelled fluid, contaminated fluid, steering cylinder restrictions, or other conditions that may have contributed to the original pump failure.

Gen A / Gen B Replacement vs. Gen C Conversion

Replacing the existing Gen A / Gen B pump may be a more economical option than converting the entire steering system to Gen C. A complete conversion can require several additional components.

Costs shown are historical reference amounts from this product's existing description and are subject to change. Actual conversion requirements vary by steering configuration.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a replacement for Mercury Verado Gen A and Gen B power steering pumps?

Yes. Pro Marine 8M0134736P is an aftermarket replacement for compatible Mercury Verado Gen A and Gen B power steering pumps. It cross references Mercury 8M0134359 and 8M0134736.

Do I need to reuse my old pump case?

Yes. This replacement requires the original case from your existing power steering pump.

Why do Mercury Verado power steering pumps overheat?

One common cause is restricted hydraulic fluid flow. We frequently encounter systems where power steering fluid has become thick or gel-like and accumulated inside the steering cylinder. These restrictions can force the pump to work harder, leading to overheating and premature failure.

Can gelled power steering fluid damage a replacement pump?

Yes. If gelled fluid or a restriction remains in the hydraulic steering system, a replacement pump can experience the same excessive workload and overheating that damaged the original pump.

Should I inspect the steering cylinder before replacing the pump?

Yes. Inspect the steering cylinder and hydraulic system for gelled fluid, contamination, and restrictions. Correct any problems before operating the replacement pump.

Does gelled power steering fluid void the pump warranty?

Yes. The warranty is void if gelled power steering fluid is found inside the pump. Inspect and service the hydraulic system before installation to help prevent repeat failure.

Does Pro Marine have a video explaining Verado steering problems?

Yes. Watch our Verado Power Steering Repair Video for additional information about steering system service.

Can I rebuild my existing Verado steering cylinder?

Depending on the cylinder's condition and compatibility, repair may be possible using the Pro Marine 2700P Steering Cylinder Seal Kit . Inspect the cylinder for internal damage before deciding whether to repair or replace it.

Is a remanufactured steering cylinder available?

Yes. Pro Marine offers the 896500R01 Remanufactured Verado Steering Cylinder for compatible applications.

Should I replace my Gen A / Gen B pump or upgrade to Gen C?

Replacing the existing pump may be the simpler option when the remainder of the steering system is serviceable. A Gen C conversion requires additional components and configuration checks. Review our Gen A / Gen B to Gen C Conversion Guide to compare the options.

Where can I find Verado power steering technical information?
