Mercruiser Ignition Tune-Up Kits

[Standard Points-Style Ignition][Thunderbolt Ignition][Delco EST & HEI Electronic Ignition][Ignition & EFI Tools]

Keeping your engine well tuned will improve performance and save fuel. Performing a complete tune-up can often take care of nagging running and starting problems. It is more difficult to troubleshoot a poor running engine that is not tuned.

Thousands of "do-it-yourselfer" customers perform their own tune-ups every year and they save good money doing it.
With a factory Service Manual and the correct tools, tune-up's are snap.

The Engine Owners Manual that came with your engine has a wealth information pertaining to
tune-up and maintenance procedures and schedules.

Quicksilver DDT Scan Tool

.

Models:

Mercury/Mariner EFI, DFI, Optimax, 3.0L Carb and 25-40 hp 4-cycle Outboards.
Mercury Racing EFI Outboards and MerCruisers.
MerCruiser EFI and MPI Models including PCM 555.
MerCruiser 1997 and Newer Carb Models with Thunderbolt V Ignition System.

Digital Diagnostic Terminal (DDT) and Cartridge


This hand held Scan Tool is easy to use.
The flexible sealed keypad, rubber boot and rugged
design will provide many years of service. It comes with a 10-foot (3 m) cable.
Adapter cables are used to connect the DDT to Data Link Connector (DLC) on the engine.
There are separate Cartridges for Mercury/Mariner Outboards
and MerCruiser products. Instructions with the Cartridges and Service
Manuals will tell how to connect the DDT to the engine.

The DDT, when used with the correct cartridge, and the product’s Service Manual will allow
the technician to properly diagnose and repair engine systems. Engine functions can be
monitored while the engine is running to aid in diagnosis and will display any stored trouble
codes. On MerCruiser engines, the DDT is used to set the base engine timing on
MEFI-1/-2/-3 ECM models.
