Mercury's exclusive Digital Throttle and Shift system provides instantaneous throttle response and simplified rigging for outstanding performance. The 3.0L OptiMax family fuel system utilizes 80 psi to deliver the air/fuel mixture directly into to the combustion chamber for unmatched fuel efficiency and engine performance. New for 2004MY, each model features the powerful 038 Motorola control module for unmatched engine management and SmartCraft capabilities. A specially designed cooling system keeps the 3.0L OptiMax engine block running at ideal temperatures for durability and reliability. These models feature the 60-amp/756 watt belt-driven alternator system which provides charging "on-demand" for the ultimate in efficiency and charging performance. These models feature dual low water pickups to ensure a steady flow of cooling water even with extreme jackplate rigging. Each model features Mercury's exclusive 2+1 OptiMax warranty plus 3-years of limited corrosion warranty. DTS enhances acceleration by constantly managing fuel flow, spark timing and airflow. Also, the throttle lever becomes a thrust/brake lever, optimizing drivetrain efficiency. The feel of the DTS throttle can be tuned for individual preferences. Engine and transmission controls work together to determine when and how quickly the transmission will shift. This helps protect the drivetrain from damage - especially during high-rpm shifting. In dual engine applications, an automatic synchronizer is built in, eliminating the need to manage independent engine rpm.
