MerCruiser MPI engines with SmartCraft™ feature the most sophisticated boat/engine data-management system available. This system monitors up to 64 internal and external functions and continuously adjusts the engine operations for optimum performance.
Mercury-exclusive ECM 555 processor optimizes fuel mixture, knock control and ignition timing independently for each cylinder, resulting in improved, precise performance. ECM 555 also enables the connection of SmartCraft components.
Engine Guardian™ proactively monitors and protects your engine from the damaging effects of low oil pressure, high engine pressure, engine over-speed, or low cooling water pressure.
The Engine Guardian system not only detects and alerts you of an engine problem, it automatically reduces power to a safe level that allows you to continue operating.
MerCruiser multiport fuel injection (MPI) system features high-quality marine-specific componentry for unmatched performance and increased throttle response.
MPI also provides dependable turn-key starts, optimized fuel/air distribution to each cylinder, digital electronic spark advance, idle speed control, and automatic adjustment for atmospheric and elevation changes for reliable performance.
MerCruiser-exclusive optional air-actuated, single-point water drain system allows the operator to drain water from the engine from one, easy-to-reach location for convenience. |
Standard water drain system features three easily accessible blue, hand-removable drain plugs near the front of the engine.
Dry-joint exhaust system eliminates a potential leak path, reduces a buildup of condensation and decreases the threat of water ingestion for longer engine life.
Exclusive easy oil drain system simplifies routine maintenance, allowing engine oil to be drained through a hose that exits through the boat's standard drain plug hole.
MerCruiser water-cooled and insulated fuel system, which eliminates the need for a return line to the fuel tank, helps keep fuel temperatures down and greatly reduces the potential for vapor lock with today's fuels.
Remote-mounted oil filter places the oil filter within easy reach for simple, clean oil changes. Along with the exclusive easy oil drain system, MerCruiser MPI engines bring simplified maintenance to a new level.
Standard audio alarm system warns of low oil pressure, high water temperature, and excessive transmission temperature, reducing chances of engine or transmission damage. |
