FUEL & OIL
ALCOHOL IN GASOLINE (CONTINUED)
•
Starting and operating difficulties.
•
Vapor lock or fuel starvation.
The tendency of gasoline containing alcohol to absorb moisture
from the air, results in a phase of water and alcohol which separates
from the gasoline in the fuel tank.
The adverse effects of alcohol are more severe with methanol and
are worse with increasing content of alcohol.
Oil Recommendation
Use Mercury Precision Premium Plus 2-Cycle TC-W3 Outboard Oil.
Emergency Use Only: If Mercury Precision Premium Plus 2-Cycle
TC-W3 Outboard Oil is not available, NMMA Certified 2-Cycle
TC-W3 Oil may be substituted.
Periodically consult with your dealer to get the latest gasoline and
oil recommendations. If Mercury Precision Premium 2-Cycle
TC-W3 Outboard Oil is not available, substitute a 2-Cycle outboard
manufacturers oil that is NMMA Certified TC-W3, or another brand
of 2-Cycle outboard oil that is NMMA Certified TC-W3. The use of
an inferior 2-Cycle outboard oil can reduce engine durability. Dam-
age from use of inferior oil may not be covered under the lim-
ited warranty.
