Quicksilver

<h3>Quicksilver: The Marine Enthusiast&apos;s Trusted OEM Brand</h3><p>For boaters who refuse to compromise on quality, <strong>Quicksilver</strong> has been the benchmark for marine parts, accessories, and engine care products since 1950. Based in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, Quicksilver operates as the parts and accessories brand of Mercury Marine — and that heritage is central to everything it makes. As the only marine aftermarket brand manufactured and recommended by an original-equipment manufacturer, Quicksilver brings factory-level engineering directly to boat owners, professional technicians, and weekend warriors alike.</p><p>What sets Quicksilver apart from generic aftermarket suppliers is its direct lineage to the engineers who designed the engines in the first place. Every component is engineered, tested, and manufactured with the same exacting standards as the original equipment it replaces. The result is a product line that fits right the first time and delivers the reliability boaters depend on — whether they&apos;re navigating calm inland lakes or pushing through demanding saltwater conditions.</p><p>Quicksilver&apos;s catalog spans more than 40,000 parts across 12 product lines, covering outboard and sterndrive engines from Mercury, Mariner, Yamaha, Honda, Evinrude, Johnson, Suzuki, and more. Among the most critical components in that lineup are Quicksilver Fuel Pumps, which are built to deliver factory fit and consistent fuel delivery across a wide range of outboard applications. Reliable fuel delivery is the foundation of engine performance, and Quicksilver&apos;s fuel system components are engineered to handle the demanding conditions of marine use — including compatibility with current fuel formulations.</p><p>Beyond fuel systems, Quicksilver is a go-to source for Propeller Parts &amp; Accessories that help boaters maintain and optimize their propulsion systems. From hub kits that protect both prop and gearcase to installation hardware and prop tools, these components are designed to the same tolerances as the drives they support. Proper propeller maintenance is one of the most impactful things a boat owner can do for performance, efficiency, and engine longevity — and Quicksilver makes that job straightforward.</p><p>The brand&apos;s commitment extends across lubricants, impellers, thermostats, anodes, fuel filters, oil filters, maintenance kits, and complete service packages — all engineered for the marine environment and tested to meet or exceed the standards of major engine manufacturers. Whether you&apos;re performing routine seasonal maintenance or tackling a more involved repair, Quicksilver provides the parts that restore your engine to peak operating condition.</p><ul style="list-style:disc"><li>OEM-backed engineering from Mercury Marine</li><li>Compatible with Mercury, Yamaha, Honda, Evinrude, Johnson, Suzuki, and Mariner engines</li><li>Over 40,000 parts spanning 12 product lines</li><li>Formulated and tested for freshwater and saltwater environments</li><li>Trusted by DIY boaters and professional marine technicians since 1950</li></ul><p>When reliability on the water is non-negotiable, Quicksilver delivers the peace of mind that only a true OEM-backed brand can provide.</p>

Best price. Website is easy to navigate, and tye check out process was quick and easy.

Fast, simple and what I ordered

Very satisfied with customer service and very pleased with merchandise

Excellent AAAA++++++

Great seller, good selection, super fast shipping!

Easy ordering process. Great communication.

I have ordered from Autoplicity several times in the past and I will continue to be a repeat customer.

Great price. Easy website to use.

Great!

Quick and easy.

Fast ship, great price. I will purchase merchandise from them again.

great place to find hard to find parts if they infact , do have this part I ordered ASAP

Best price on a holley carburetor online. I unusually use summit but even the shipping price is less, no handling fees either. I am hearing great things about the shipping so I am hopeful the 69 javelin is back on the road this week! If it works out I will tell all my motor head friends about this site!

Purchased a CTEK 7002 battery tender because of how great they work for keeping all the toys charged up over the cold months. Autoplicity had, by far the best price on this product. Couldn't ask for more.

easy

The order process is simple and efficient. Shipping was quick. Price was excellent.

I was a bit concerned buying from a online retailer I had not done business with before, but Autoplicity is now on my list of preferred vendors. I was sure there would be some problem, as the part I ordered was $73 cheaper than anywhere else online (too good to be true). Well, the part arrived super fast, and was exactly as I ordered. I did not hear from them immediately after ordering, but received confirmation and tracking info when the item shipped, which was two days after ordering. All in all, a great, money saving experience.<br><br>Update:<br>While I am still pleased with the service I received, I find it odd that Autoplicity emailed me and offered me a refund of $5 for writing a review. It has been a couple of weeks since I posted my review, and I have yet to see any credits on my credit card.
