NEW DUALFUEL 1200 SCI - MILD MANNERED MONSTER WITH A SPLIT PERSONALITY
(FOND DU LAC, Wis., June 11, 2009) - Mercury Racing is pleased to announce the release of the DualFuel 1200 SCi. A second onboard Propulsion Control Module (PCM) microprocessor enhances the versatility of the popular 1200 SCi —allowing owners to switch from the required 112 AKI race fuel at 1200 h.p. to the second PCM which enables the engine to run on 89 posted pump octane (R + M)/2, or (95 RON) International fuel rating fuel at 1025 h.p.
The fuel requirements for the Gen 3 850 SCi sterndrive engine package have also changed from 91 posted octane (R + M)/2 or (98 RON) International, to a new minimum posted octane requirement of 89 (R+M)/2 or (95 RON).
Mercury Racing Engineering made the fuel requirement changes in response to the limited availability of fuels with the higher octane ratings at marinas and on-water facilities around the world.
The 1200 SCi and 850 SCi fuel requirement updates follow running changes made to 600 SCi, EU662 SCi and 700 SCi models earlier in the year. The revised fuel calibrations do not adversely affect engine life or performance.
Both the DualFuel 1200 SCi and Gen 3 850 SCi qualify for the recently announced Mercury Racing Lucky 7's Sterndrive Promotion. From May 29 through August 28, 2009, pricing on select sterndrive engine packages is rolled back to 2007 levels.
