Mercury 8 HP EFI 2024: Injection Where Rivals Still Run Carbs

The 2024 Mercury 8 HP EFI FourStroke gives the 8HP class something rare: electronic fuel injection. From the moment you crank the engine, EFI responds with instant power — surefire starting in all weather, smooth efficient acceleration, and zero carburetor gumming after storage. The 208cc twin runs smooth and quiet, F-N-R gearing handles docking, and Mercury’s multi-function tiller puts every control at your fingertips. Add the no-spill oil change and maintenance-free valve train, and it’s the modern pick of the 8–10HP class.
