Mercury Mercruiser engines
Gas Sterndrive 496 MAG HO 425 hp
The new high-tech 496 MAG HO (high-output version) represents the next generation of powerful, smart, virtually maintenance-free engines. The PCM 555 microprocessor is built right in, so you can take advantage of everything SmartCraft™ has to offer in the way of increased performance and convenience. And by incorporating Horizon™ engine technology, it offers a 3-year extended maintenance interval (except for periodic fluid-level checks and seasonal oil and filter changes).
Boating Benefits
Mercury-exclusive PCM 555 high-speed microprocessor that optimizes fuel mixture, knock control and ignition timing independently for each cylinder, resulting in improved, precise performance. PCM 555 also enables the connection of SmartCraft components.
Distributorless ignition system that improves timing accuracy and eliminates mechanical timing adjustments.
Closed cooling with 5-year coolant.
Redesigned exhaust system with aluminum manifolds and stainless steel elbows that is 65 percent lighter and more corrosion-resistant.
Dry-joint technology that reduces the potential for water leakage in exhaust components and improves corrosion resistance in the exhaust system.
Innovative new single-point air-actuated raw water drain system, which enables boaters to extend their boating season into the cold months.
Bronze seawater pump for longer life and more durability.
Billet steel special profile camshaft with roller followers provide quiet operation and increased performance.
Platinum-tipped spark plugs to ensure long life and trouble-free starts.
Forged-steel connecting rods improve strength and durability.
Cast-aluminum oil pan which solidifies the engine block for increased rigidity.
Exclusive quick oil drain system that eliminates the need for a pump, simplifying routine maintenance.
Engine Guardian™ that not only detects and alerts boater of an engine problem, it processes the data and reduces power to a maximum, safe level that allows the boater to continue operation.
Exclusive drive lube monitor conveniently located atop the engine for easy access.
Exclusive Mercury MerCruiser® service dealer network.
