🔍 Model Background

The Mercury Mariner 150 HP DFI Optimax outboard (1998–2001) marked one of the earliest implementations of Mercury’s Direct Fuel Injection (DFI) technology in a high-output 2-stroke engine. Built on a durable 2.5L V6 powerhead, this model was designed to offer the torque and performance of a traditional 2-stroke while meeting stricter emissions and fuel economy standards.

The 150 Optimax featured an air-assisted DFI system that delivered a precisely atomized fuel charge directly into the combustion chamber, improving throttle response, reducing smoke, and significantly lowering fuel and oil consumption. This first-generation engine also came equipped with CDM ignition, SmartCraft compatibility, and a high-capacity cooling system.

Ideal for bass boats, bay boats, and mid-sized offshore craft, the 1998–2001 150 HP Optimax became known for its blend of raw 2-stroke power with modern efficiency. While later versions introduced refinements, this early Optimax model remains a milestone in Mercury’s evolution toward cleaner, high-performance marine engines.
