FUEL AND OIL

The fuel system components on your Mercury Marine engine will

withstand up to 10% alcohol content in the gasoline. We do not

know what percentage your boat's fuel system will withstand.

Contact your boat manufacturer for specific recommendations on

the boat's fuel system components (fuel tanks, fuel lines, and

fittings).
Be aware that gasolines containing alcohol may cause increased:

• Corrosion of metal parts.
• Deterioration of rubber or plastic parts.
• Fuel permeation through rubber fuel lines.
• Starting, idling, and other engine performance problems.
• Do not use gasoline that contains more than 10% ethanol or

more than 5% methanol.

• Damages resulting from the use of gasolines that contain

alcohol, acetone or benzene are not covered under the limited

warranty.

WARNING

Fuel leakage is a fire or explosion hazard, which can cause

serious injury or death. Periodically inspect all fuel system

components for leaks, softening, hardening, swelling, or

corrosion, particularly after storage. Any sign of leakage or

deterioration requires replacement before further engine

operation.

Because of possible adverse effects of alcohol in gasoline, it is

recommended that only alcohol‑free gasoline be used where

possible. If only fuel containing alcohol is available, or if the

presence of alcohol is unknown, increased inspection frequency

for leaks and abnormalities is required.
