Description

2010 Mariner Optimax 150HP

2010 Mariner Optimax 150HP The 2010 Mariner OptiMax 150HP is a fuel-injected, two-stroke outboard motor known for its power and efficiency, though it is often associated with problems like air in the oil reservoir causing low-oil pressure alarms. It’s a V6 engine with a 2.5L (153 cubic inch) displacement, and common performance characteristics include good holeshot acceleration and low vibration levels, though it can be noisier than four-stroke alternatives. Key troubleshooting for this model involves checking and bleeding air from the oil tank to resolve the 4-beep alarm.  

Key Features & Performance
  • Fuel Injection:
    The OptiMax system features two-stage direct fuel injection, which improves fuel distribution and enhances fuel economy compared to traditional two-strokes. 

  • Power & Torque:
    It’s a V6 engine designed for strong, instant holeshot (acceleration) and good overall performance across the RPM range. 

  • Weight:
    The 150 OptiMax is relatively light for its power class, which can be an advantage for boat performance and balance. 

  • Reliability:
    The engine is built to be tough, with Mercury’s extensive testing designed to ensure reliability. 

  • Sound:
    While powerful, the OptiMax engine can be noisier than newer four-stroke competitors. 

Common Issues 

  • Air in Oil Reservoir:
    A common issue is air getting trapped in the oil tank, leading to recurring 4-beep low-oil pressure alarms.
  • Troubleshooting the Alarm:
    To fix this, you need to remove the cowling and bleed the air from the small oil tank on the side of the engine.
Maintenance & Other Considerations
  • Propeller Selection: Ensure the correct propeller pitch is used, as the wrong pitch can affect performance and fuel economy. 
  • Oil Levels: Always maintain correct oil levels and use fresh oil to prevent damage. 
  • Vibration: While generally smooth, low vibration, check for any loose fittings that could allow air into the oil system.
