Rated at 135 hp, this new "Alpha ready" 3.0 MPI Emissions Control model features electronic Multiport Fuel Injection (MPI) and a three-way catalytic converter to provide excellent performance while producing extremely low emissions levels that meet California 4-Star Super Ultra-Low emissions requirements. The 3.0 MPI features MerCruiser's new PCM09 Electronic Control Module to control ignition, fuel injection and a number of exclusive SmartCraft features like the intelligent Engine Guardian system.
RELIABILITY
- GM cast iron base engine with single-piece intake/exhaust manifold for long life and proven durability
- PCM09 control module controls Multi-Port Fuel Injection, High-Energy Ignition, Engine Guiardian® and enables optional SmartCraft gauges and displays

- Standard On-Board Diagnostics (OBD-M) allow technicians to access engine operating history for quick diagnosis and repairs
- Spin-on water separating fuel filter helps protect engine and fuel system from damage
- Dry-joint exhaust system helps prevent damaging water from reaching critical internal engine components
- Metal substrate catalytic converter to better resist vibration and potential exposure to moisture in harsh marine environments
PERFORMANCE
