Summary

Routine protection keeps your Mercury outboard running smoothly despite grime, salt, and ethanol‐blend fuel challenges. Key products include Corrosion Guard for rust inhibition, marine‐grade grease with PTFE for lubrication, fuel‐system cleaners for carbon removal, fuel treatments and stabilizers for ethanol defense, fogging oil for internal rust prevention, engine cleaners to restore power, and genuine marine oils for superior shear and corrosion protection. Use these at recommended intervals—and request a professional quote—to “Keep Them Boating!”

1. Corrosion Protection

Spray Corrosion Guard on painted and unpainted metal engine surfaces to form a water‐resistant barrier against rust in freshwater and saltwater environments. Use on outdrives, lower units, trim motors, and other exposed components at every service interval.

2. Marine-Grade Grease

Use 2-4-C Marine Grease with PTFE for all general lubrication points. Its extreme-pressure additives resist oxidation and water wash-out, making it ideal for steering cables, swivel pins, tilt locks, and trailer wheel bearings.

3. Fuel-System Deep Clean

Quickleen Engine & Fuel System Cleaner removes carbon, gum, and varnish from carburetors, injectors, valves, and spark plugs—preventing knocking and piston seize-up. One ounce treats 5 gallons of fuel; use periodically during the season.

4. Routine Fuel Treatment

Quickare Fuel Treatment added at every fill-up combats ethanol-blend issues—corrosion, phase separation, and varnish—and keeps fuel fresh up to three months.

5. Long-Term Fuel Stabilization

Quickstor Fuel Stabilizer protects stored fuel for up to a year, preventing oxidation, gum formation, and fuel-system corrosion. Add before offseason storage to ensure easy starts next season.

6. Internal Rust Prevention

Storage Seal Fogging Oil coats internal engine surfaces with a protective film during storage, preventing cylinder and piston corrosion when the engine sits idle.

7. Restore Lost Power

Power Tune Internal Engine Cleaner dissolves combustion-chamber deposits, improving fuel/air flow and regaining horsepower—safe for all 2- and 4-cycle engines.

8. Why Genuine Marine Oils Matter

Marine engines endure high RPMs and corrosion risks that shear automotive oils. Genuine Mercury marine engine oils feature anti-corrosion inhibitors and shear-stable additives formulated for lower operating temperatures and extended idle periods—exceeding marine industry standards for durability and protection.
