WARNING
Serious injury or death may occur to the boating public if boat systems are incorrectly
designed, manufactured, or installed. To minimize risks of fire or explosion, electrical,
ignition and fuel system components on Mercury Marine power products are designed
and manufactured to comply with numerous international directives, federal regulations,
voluntary standards, and product installation instructions.
Use or installation of replacement electrical, ignition or fuel system components, which
do not comply with these directives, regulations, standards and instructions could result
in a fire or explosion hazard and should be avoided.
Marine engines are expected to operate at or near full throttle for most of their life. They
are also expected to operate in both fresh and saltwater environments. These conditions
require numerous special parts. Care should be exercised when replacing marine engine
parts as specifications are quite different from those of the standard automotive engine.
For example, one of the most important, and probably the least suspected special
replacement part, is the cylinder head gasket. Since saltwater is highly corrosive, the
steel‑type automotive head gasket cannot be used. A marine engine head gasket uses
special materials to resist corrosive action.
Since marine engines must be capable of running at or near maximum RPM much of the
time, special valve springs, valve lifters, pistons, bearings, camshafts and other heavy duty
moving parts are required for long life and peak performance.
These are but a few of the many special modifications that are required in Mercury
MerCruiser marine engines to provide long life and dependable performance.
1. Quicksilver parts and accessories are engineered and built by Mercury Marine, specifically for Mercury MerCruiser sterndrives
and inboards.
