Mercury MerCruiser Diesel Sterndrives

Faster Than Anything In Its Class
Until
now, think sportsboat and you would probably think petrol engine. Well think
again. Here is a compact, lightweight diesel sterndrive that can outperform
many a petrol unit yet turn out minimal noise, smoke and vibration and be
utterly miserly on fuel.
The European-built Mercury MerCruiser D1.7L is mechanically direct injected,
turbocharged, aftercooled and includes a wastegate, all to maximise performance.
With bags of low-end torque there is stunning acceleration and precise throttle
response. This diesel is the most fuel-efficient engine in its class. Sophisticated
technology and advanced materials make it 30% lighter than other engines of
this power. It is extraordinarily quiet. And it is virtually smoke-free, meeting
all current emissions requirements.
Corrosion-fighting features include closed cooling, the use of a special low
copper alloy in all aluminium components and an exclusive painting process.
There is unsurpassed durability and reliability. This is state-of-the-art
boating.

The Most Advanced Diesels Yet
The
highly sophisticated D-Tronics, Mercury MerCruiser's electronic direct injection
diesels with aftercooled turbocharging, bring you the best of all propulsion
worlds.
The D-Tronics provide the low smoke, low noise and low vibration benefits
associated with indirect injection, yet with all the extra performance features
of direct injection. You are assured of really low emissions and optimum efficiency.
This is the technology for the ultimate in high performance cruising, provided
by the most advanced diesel sterndrives to date. D-Tronic power options are
165HP, 250HP and 300HP crankshaft, produced by 2.8, 4.2 and 7.3 litre diesel
engines respectively. Coupled to any of the market-leading MerCruiser Diesel
Bravo X drives, they will lift your boating pleasure to new and higher planes.
MerCruiser's high-revving indirect injection option, at 4.2 litres, is a long-established
performance engine with big power, low fuel consumption and impressive record
of durable, reliable, efficient and clean operation. It is also the only engine
of its class to be BSO 2 approved for dual installations on Bodensee lake.
This is pleasure boating at its best.
