Mercury 60 EFI FourStroke
With more and more four-stroke engines being sold every year, boaters are quickly
realizing the many benefits that four-stroke technology offers, such as incredible
fuel economy, no exhaust smoke, low noise levels and smooth running. Mercury’s
EFI system takes four-stroke benefits even further.
In fact, Mercury’s 30-60 Electronic Fuel Injected outboards have been
redefining performance since their introduction in 2001.
Proven Performance
Mercury pioneered electronic fuel injection for outboards back in 1987. Now,
by combining our proven EFI technology with the benefits of four-stroke outboards,
Mercury FourStrokes take performance to the next level.
Mercury’s exclusive EFI system delivers reliable turn-key starting and
smooth, consistent running in all types of weather conditions and climates.
Unlike carburetors, Mercury’s EFI system monitors engine speed, piston
position, intake manifold pressure, throttle position, intake air temperature
and engine coolant temperature to continuously adjust and precisely meter the
amount of fuel used by the engine.
Keeping it Cool
The Mercury 30-60 EFI system employs dual fuel coolers as added protection against
vapor lock. Vapor lock occurs when the fuel temperature rises too high and the
fuel vaporizes. When that happens, the fuel no longer flows through the system
and the engine will not start or run. By incorporating two fuel coolers, the
temperature of the fuel is better controlled to provide reliable starting and
consistent operation, especially during hot conditions.
Emission Friendly
By precisely controlling the fuel being used, Mercury 30-60 EFI outboards exceed
even the strictest emissions standards in place today. These engines surpass
the California Air Resources Board’s (CARB) 3-Star rating, making them
some of the cleanest-running engines in the market. In fact, these engines have
reduced emissions more than 91% over traditional 2-Stroke outboards.
Peace of Mind
The Mercury 30-60 EFI FourStrokes incorporate a built-in engine protection system
that provides the operator with peace of mind whenever the engine is operating.
The state-of-the-art ECM555, one of the most powerful engine-control modules
on the market, not only monitors vital engine functions to deliver the right
amount of fuel, it also protects the engine with its Engine Guardian system
in case something does go wrong. In the case of engine overheat or low oil pressure,
Engine Guardian will signal that there is a problem and will automatically go
into a self-protect mode by reducing engine RPM.
The ECM555 also allows these engines to be rigged using SmartCraft
gauges.
Charge it
Mercury’s 30-60 EFI outboards boast some of the highest output alternators
in their class. These engines include a standard 20-amp alternator to power
a host of electronic equipment and keep your batteries charged.
Bigfoot Engines
When you demand high thrust, Mercury delivers. Mercury offers Bigfoot versions
of the 40,
50
and 60
EFI FourStrokes -- more models than any other manufacturer. In fact, no other
manufacturer combines high thrust and EFI technologies on the same engine. Mercury
recognized that the combination of EFI’s enhanced running quality and
Bigfoot’s high-thrust capabilities provides a perfect engine for any pontoon
boat.
Warranty
Mercury offers all four-stroke engines with one of the most aggressive warranties
available. Each engine is backed by a standard three-year non-declining limited
warranty and industry exclusive Three-Year Corrosion Failure Warranty.
