Fuel Requirements

IMPORTANT: Use of improper gasoline can damage your engine. Engine
damage resulting from the use of improper gasoline is considered misuse
of the engine and will not be covered under the limited warranty.

FUEL RATINGS

Mercury outboard engines will operate satisfactorily with any major brand of

unleaded gasoline that meets the following specifications:

USA and Canada

‑ A posted pump octane rating of 87 (R+M)/2, minimum, for

most models. Premium gasoline 91 (R+M)/2 octane is also acceptable for most

models.

Do not

use leaded gasoline.

Outside USA and Canada

‑ A posted pump octane rating of 91 RON,

minimum, for most models. Premium gasoline (95 RON) is also acceptable for

all models.

Do not

use leaded gasoline.

USING REFORMULATED (OXYGENATED) GASOLINE (USA ONLY)

Reformulated gasoline is required in certain areas of the USA and is

acceptable for use in your Mercury Marine engine. The only oxygenate

currently in use in the USA is alcohol (ethanol, methanol, or butanol).

GASOLINE CONTAINING ALCOHOL

Bu16 Butanol Fuel Blends

Fuel blends of up to 16.1% butanol (Bu16) that meet the published Mercury

Marine fuel rating requirements are an acceptable substitute for unleaded

gasoline. Contact your boat manufacturer for specific recommendations on

your boat's fuel system components (fuel tanks, fuel lines, and fittings).

Methanol and Ethanol Fuel Blends

IMPORTANT: The fuel system components on your Mercury Marine engine will

withstand up to 10% alcohol (methanol or ethanol) content in the gasoline. Your

boat's fuel system may not be capable of withstanding the same percentage of

alcohol. Contact your boat manufacturer for specific recommendations on your

boat's fuel system components (fuel tanks, fuel lines, and fittings).
Be aware that gasoline containing methanol or ethanol may cause increased:

•

Corrosion of metal parts

•

Deterioration of rubber or plastic parts

•

Fuel permeation through the rubber fuel lines

•

Likelihood of phase separation (water and alcohol separating from the

gasoline in the fuel tank)
