  • A standard automatic cylinder decompression system greatly reduces starting pull force for effortless starting.
  • The 4 hp model delivers ultimate portability with its integrated fuel tank and shut-off valve to prevent fuel spillage.
  • A full forward-neutral-reverse side shift is standard.
  • BORN TO BE SMOOTH: All portable and mid-range Mercury FourStrokes feature INLINE DESIGNS for inherently smooth operation.
  • EASY SHIFTING: PRECISION ENGINEERED SHIFT system delivers smooth shifting for an improved driving experience.
  • INDUSTRY-LEADING WARRANTY: Every Mercury outboard comes with a three-year limited factory-backed, nondeclining warranty (except Mercury Racing models).
  • SMART ENGINES MEAN MORE FUN: The ECM (Electronic Control Module), with its advanced microprocessor, is the brain of the Mercury FourStroke engine. It controls engine functions such as idle speed, starting and smooth performance and alerts you to potential problems.
  • PEACE OF MIND: Engine Guardian uses more than 40 sensors to monitor functions of your engine. If the proactive operator-warning system detects a potential problem – such as overreving, overheating or low oil pressure – Engine Guardian sends out an alert and automatically reduces engine power to prevent damage.
  • CLEAN POWER: All Mercury FourStrokes are designed to run clean, helping to protect the environment for generations to come. Every Mercury mid-range FourStroke engine carries a CARB THREE-STAR ULTRA-LOW EMISSIONS RATING.
