How to break in a Mercury Four-Stroke Pro XS V8 Outboard Motor.
In this video you will learn the importance of the outboard break-in procedure, and how a proper break-in can lead to years of on the water fun without equipment breakdown. This particular engine is a 250hp, but the same procedure can be used for 225hp and 200hp Mercury Four-Strokes I believe.
In this video I demonstrate how I break-in a 2020 Nitro Z21 paired with a Mercury Four-Stroke Pro XS V8 and a Fury 23p 3 blade prop. This boat is equipped with a hydraulic jack-plate and trim. If you do not have a hydraulic jack-plate no worries...just trim all the way down and follow the same procedure.
Having the hydraulic jack-plate and trim all the way down can be seen and explained better on this youtube video... • Video
With the prices of boats and outboards ever increasing, it is more important then ever before to properly break-in and maintain equipment in order to have years of repair free fun.
Important: Failure to follow the engine break-in procedures can result in poor performance throughout the life of the outboard and can also cause engine damage.
