 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 EFI 4 Strokes 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.

Key Features
· Mercury EFI 4 Stroke provides the ultimate in low-emissions power. Instant turnkey starting
and ultra-efficient fuel management are the trademarks of our EFI FourStroke lineup.
· Our 40 HP EFI 4 Strokes are easy to pull start and run quietly and efficiently. They are the perfect
choice when a manual start motor is preferred.
· Mercury's 40 EFI 4 Stroke feature state-of-the-art fuel system components. The fuel injection
system is designed to provide maximum fuel economy and reduced risk of vapor lock.
· Thermoplastic materials in the intake systems of the 40 EFI make the engine only 12 pounds heavier
than the carbureted version! The result: All of the benefits of EFI with very little weight increase.
· Each model is tolerant of winter and summer grade fuels for convenience.
· All Mercury Four Stroke features a 3-year Factory Backed Warranty and a 3-year Limited Corrosion
Warranty.
· Each model is 3-star C.A.R.B. rated (C.A.R.B. 2008, EPA 2006).
