Captain's Report
All MerCruiser® gasoline engines are designed to run on 87-octane fuel making them less expensive to operate than engines that require a higher-octane rating.
Standard audio alarm system warns of low oil pressure, high water temperature, and excessive transmission temperature, reducing chances of engine or transmission damage.
Color-coded service points for easy identification of key service areas (yellow -engine oil; blue - engine coolant; brown - transmission fluid).
Engines incorporate roller valve lifters, improving efficiency for increased horsepower and performance.
65-amp/917-watt alternator fully charges the battery for dependable starting with extra capacity to handle additional electrical accessories. Alternator is located high on the engine to avoid water contamination.
One-piece serpentine belt means easier servicing, less maintenance, unsurpassed belt life, and requires fewer horsepower to drive the engine accessories.
Heavy-duty water-circulating pump uses a stainless steel shaft, bronze impeller and special seal for long life.
Sealed flywheel housing protects starter from water damage for added resistance to the elements.
50-amp/706-watt circuit breaker is standard to help prevent overloading of the electrical system and is easy to reset, eliminating the need for troublesome fuses.
Remote water-separating fuel filter ensures dependable starts and performance by removing water and solid particles from fuel before they reach the fuel system.
Water-cooled and insulated fuel system helps keep fuel temperatures down and greatly reduces potential of vapor lock for added reliability on today's higher-horsepower fuel-injected engines.
The engine, including the alternator, is painted for better corrosion protection.
High-capacity seawater pump utilizes plastic pump body and stainless steel end plate and shaft for increased durability and corrosion protection.
Electro Deposition Painting (EDP) process used on engine as well as oil pan offers excellent protection from corrosive environments.
