    Information on 2001 Pro Max 300X

    I am looking at a center console with a pair of Mercury 300x Pro Max outboards. Tried to look up specs and all I can find is on the short shaft racing models. They have 600 hours.

    Are these engines EFI, are they like the Optimax as in DI. Is the oil injection a plastic gear, etc?

    Thanks in Advance....

    Efi,but not optimax. electric oil injection pump. Probably will burn quite a bit of fuel on that

    Thanks. I figure they are gas hogs but that does not bother me.

    I thought so too, but if you zoom in on the pics it says 300X on the motors both front and side.


    Where do I find the model # and serial #'s on these engines?

    OK I found a 300 Pro Max owners manual online- says 6200 rpm max. 92 octane, shows where serial #'s are.

    NADA has a 1999 XL Pro Max 300 and 2000 also. But not 2001....

    I don't think they are custom stickers, rather denote a model....

    See if the power heads are painted black or raw,unpainted aluminum.

    Ask what the compression is. The X is higher compression than the promax.

    Does it have 2 computers on the back of the engine? If so it is a promax. If one computer on the side it is an x
