Overview
When you run a powerful four-cylinder Mercury outboard, that first start of the day sets the tone. There’s a certain confidence that comes from turning the key and hearing the engine surge awake—no dragging, no uncertainty, just clean energy ready to push the boat wherever you want to go. Whether you’re cruising upriver at dawn or trimming down for a fast run across open water, this Mercury Marine part provides that dependable beginning every time.
Key Features
• Designed for strong cranking performance on Mercury 100, 115, and 125 horsepower four-cylinder outboards.

• Fits Mercury Jet 80 horsepower outboards (serial range 0A722297–0T999999).

Performance & Practical Benefits
These larger four-cylinder engines demand a starter motor with real muscle. This Mercury Marine part delivers a strong, steady crank that brings the engine to life quickly, even after long periods of storage or cool mornings on the water. You’ll feel how secure and deliberate the engagement is, especially when the engine fires instantly without hesitation.
The internal components—brushes, bearings, and armature windings—are balanced specifically for high-compression four-cylinder loads. The housing is built from marine-grade steel to withstand moisture, vibration, and heat over long seasons. Once installed, the starter fits with that solid, factory-correct alignment, making the whole engine feel tighter and more predictable.
You’ll notice the difference in daily use. No slow roll. No uneven crank. Just smooth, dependable starting power trip after trip.
Why Buy OEM
With a starter motor, precision is everything. Large four-cylinder outboards have specific torque and electrical requirements. Aftermarket versions often fall short in these areas, leading to early failure or weak starts. A genuine Mercury Marine part is engineered to match the exact specifications your engine was built around.
OEM parts save you time, prevent electrical wear, and deliver long-term value that cheaper alternatives simply can’t match. It’s the kind of practical choice real boaters make when they’re thinking about the season ahead—not just tomorrow’s trip.
